1 Fri Apr 14 17:50:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
3 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
4 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
8 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
10 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
13 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
14 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
15 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
16 part of the program's name.
18 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
19 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
22 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
24 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
25 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
26 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
27 single-character format would cause programs using this
28 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
29 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
30 when the format string was one character. This eventually
31 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
34 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
36 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
37 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
38 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
39 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
40 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
41 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
43 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
44 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
45 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
46 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
47 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
48 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
49 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
50 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
52 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
53 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
54 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
55 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
56 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
57 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
58 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
59 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
60 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
61 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
63 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
65 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
66 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
68 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
69 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
71 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
76 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
78 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
79 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
80 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
81 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
83 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
84 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
85 problem in the routine.
87 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
89 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
90 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
92 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
93 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
94 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
97 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
99 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
100 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
101 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
102 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
103 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
104 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
105 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
106 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
107 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
108 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
110 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
112 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
113 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
114 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
115 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
116 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
117 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
118 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
119 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
120 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
121 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
122 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
123 interesting than a duplication of the default.
125 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
126 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
127 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
128 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
129 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
131 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
134 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
136 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
137 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
138 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
139 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
142 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
144 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
146 * Applied, after some finessing,
147 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
149 Here's a patch that allows you to add
151 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
153 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
154 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
155 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
156 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
158 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
160 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
161 forgetting to do so!).
163 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
164 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
165 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
166 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
167 arguments to enable all three types.
169 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
170 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
172 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
173 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
174 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
175 updated copy of mts.conf.
177 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
179 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
180 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
181 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
183 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
185 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
187 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
188 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
189 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
191 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
192 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
193 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
195 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
196 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
197 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
199 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
201 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
203 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
205 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
207 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
208 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
210 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
211 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
212 certain suffix to run properly.
214 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
215 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
216 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
218 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
219 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
220 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
221 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
222 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
223 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
224 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
226 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
228 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
229 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
230 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
231 until some year far in the future).
233 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
235 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
237 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
238 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
240 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
241 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
244 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
246 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
247 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
248 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
249 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
250 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
251 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
253 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
255 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
257 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
258 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
259 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
261 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
262 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
263 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
264 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
265 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
266 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
269 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
270 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
271 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
272 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
273 of masquerading individually.
275 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
276 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
277 GECOS field delimiters.
279 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
281 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
282 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
283 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
284 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
285 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
286 and explaining the feature.
288 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
290 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
291 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
294 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
295 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
296 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
298 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
299 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
300 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
301 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
303 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
304 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
305 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
308 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
310 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
313 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
315 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
317 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
318 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
319 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
320 quotes embedded in them.
322 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
324 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
325 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
326 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
327 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
328 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
329 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
330 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
333 The other theory is that because you can say something like
334 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
335 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
336 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
337 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
339 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
341 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
343 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
344 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
345 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
346 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
348 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
351 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
353 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
355 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
357 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
358 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
359 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
361 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
364 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
366 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
367 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
368 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
369 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
370 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
371 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
373 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
374 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
376 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
378 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
381 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
383 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
384 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
385 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
388 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
389 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
390 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
391 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
392 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
393 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
394 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
395 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
396 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
397 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
398 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
399 processing that post has).
401 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
403 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
404 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
405 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
406 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
407 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
408 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
411 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
413 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
415 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
417 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
419 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
420 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
422 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
425 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
427 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
428 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
429 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
432 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
434 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
435 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
436 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
437 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
438 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
439 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
441 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
443 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
445 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
447 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
448 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
449 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
450 caught again. This works for now.
452 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
454 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
456 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
457 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
459 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
461 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
462 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
464 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
466 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
468 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
470 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
471 changes. Both need more cleanup.
473 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
475 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
476 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
477 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
478 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
479 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
482 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
484 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
485 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
486 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
488 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
489 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
492 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
494 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
495 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
496 to a directory on another device with more free space.
498 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
500 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
501 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
503 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
505 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
508 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
509 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
511 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
512 macros, regardless of platform.
514 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
515 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
517 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
518 with x-conversions=gzip.
520 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
522 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
525 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
526 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
527 implicit definition of ioctl().
529 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
530 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
531 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
532 want to mess with them.
534 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
536 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
537 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
539 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
540 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
542 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
543 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
544 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
546 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
547 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
548 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
550 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
553 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
556 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
557 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
560 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
561 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
564 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
565 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
569 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
571 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
572 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
573 preventing compilation on at least linux.
575 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
576 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
578 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
580 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
582 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
583 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
584 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
585 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
587 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
588 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
590 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
592 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
594 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
596 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
597 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
599 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
601 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
602 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
604 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
605 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
606 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
607 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
609 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
610 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
612 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
614 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
615 substitute it for mktemp if available.
617 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
619 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
620 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
623 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
625 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
627 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
629 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
630 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
632 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
633 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
634 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
636 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
637 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
638 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
640 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
641 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
642 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
644 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
645 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
648 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
649 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
651 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
652 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
654 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
657 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
658 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
659 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
661 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
662 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
664 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
665 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
666 <elleron@servtech.com>.
668 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
669 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
672 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
673 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
675 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
676 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
677 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
678 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
680 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
681 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
683 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
687 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
688 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
689 would not be changed.
691 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
692 one from the Apache web server.
694 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
695 (this should have been done a long time ago).
697 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
698 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
699 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
701 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
703 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
705 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
706 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
709 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
710 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
711 removes a bad race condition.
713 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
716 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
717 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
718 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
720 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
721 sequence information.
723 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
724 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
726 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
729 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
732 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
734 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
735 interpret 034 as octal.
737 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
739 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
740 mhstore, and mhbuild.
742 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
743 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
745 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
746 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
748 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
749 in the c_cefile structure when building.
751 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
752 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
754 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
755 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
756 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
758 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
759 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
760 and mhshow. Updated man pages
762 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
764 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
766 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
767 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
770 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
772 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
773 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
775 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
776 header field information.
778 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
779 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
781 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
782 values when parsing a content.
784 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
785 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
787 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
788 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
790 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
791 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
793 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
794 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
796 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
798 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
800 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
802 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
804 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
805 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
808 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
809 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
811 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
812 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
813 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
814 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
815 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
816 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
819 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
821 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
822 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
823 buffer length checks for this parameter.
825 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
826 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
828 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
830 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
831 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
832 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
833 of the limits on the length of command lines.
835 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
836 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
839 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
840 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
841 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
842 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
845 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
849 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
850 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
852 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
853 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
854 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
855 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
858 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
859 mhbuild returns an error.
861 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
862 rename the draft file.
864 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
865 use a global variable.
867 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
868 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
870 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
871 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
873 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
874 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
875 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
877 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
878 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
880 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
881 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
884 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
885 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
888 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
889 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
891 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
892 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
893 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
895 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
896 to new function output_content_folder.
898 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
899 new function output_content_file.
901 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
902 to new function parse_format_string.
904 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
905 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
906 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
907 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
909 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
910 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
911 message/external file from ftp.
913 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
914 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
915 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
917 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
918 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
921 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
924 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
925 new file mhstoresbr.c
927 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
930 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
931 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
933 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
934 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
936 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
937 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
938 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
940 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
942 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
944 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
945 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
948 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
949 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
951 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
954 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
956 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
960 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
961 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
962 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
963 is still the same (dashstuffing).
965 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
966 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
967 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
968 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
969 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
971 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
972 But it is not on by default.
974 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
975 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
977 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
979 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
981 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
983 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
985 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
986 number of the "cur" message when packing.
988 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
992 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
993 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
994 uses the original name of the library.
996 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
997 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1000 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1001 list_content and list_debug.
1003 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1005 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1006 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1008 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1010 * Released nmh-0.24.
1012 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1014 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1015 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1017 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1018 large sequence line.
1020 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1022 * Released nmh-0.23.
1024 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1026 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1027 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1028 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1029 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1031 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1032 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1035 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1037 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1039 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1041 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1042 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1044 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1045 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1047 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1048 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1050 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1051 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1053 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1055 * Released nmh-0.22.
1057 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1058 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1060 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1062 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1063 mh-profile(5) man page.
1065 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1066 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1068 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1070 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1072 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1073 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1075 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1077 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1078 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1079 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1081 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1082 source message on the standard input.
1084 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1086 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1087 rather than -rfc934mode.
1089 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1090 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1093 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1094 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1096 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1099 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1101 * Released nmh-0.21.
1103 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1104 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1106 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1109 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1110 to use for text contents.
1112 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1114 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1116 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1118 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1120 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1121 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1123 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1124 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1125 spaces between encoded word are.
1127 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1129 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1130 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1132 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1133 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1134 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1136 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1138 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1139 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1141 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1143 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1145 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1146 ISO-8859-X character set.
1148 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1151 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1152 permissions, not write permissions.
1154 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1155 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1157 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1160 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1162 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1164 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1165 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1167 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1168 message contains valid character set.
1170 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1171 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1173 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1174 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1176 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1177 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1178 between an encoded word and normal text.
1180 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1181 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1183 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1184 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1186 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1189 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1190 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1193 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1194 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1196 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1197 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1199 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1201 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1203 * Released nmh-0.20.
1205 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1207 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1209 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1210 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1211 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1213 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1214 and the To: line was missing.
1216 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1218 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1220 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1222 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1223 watch the POP transaction.
1225 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1226 first, and use it if available.
1228 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1229 first, and use it if available.
1231 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1233 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1235 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1236 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1237 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1240 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1241 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1242 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1244 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1245 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1248 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1250 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1251 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1253 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1255 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1256 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1258 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1259 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1260 message to which you are replying.
1262 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1263 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1264 making group replies.
1266 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1268 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1270 * Released nmh-0.19.
1272 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1273 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1275 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1276 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1277 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1278 to the end of the man page.
1280 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1281 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1282 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1283 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1284 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1285 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1287 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1290 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1291 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1292 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1294 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1295 the next available number above the message number you wish
1298 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1299 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1301 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1302 file sbr/seq_print.c
1304 * flist will now update the current folder.
1306 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1307 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1308 but now undocumented.
1310 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1313 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1314 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1316 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1318 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1319 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1321 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1323 * Released nmh-0.18.
1325 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1326 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1327 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1329 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1330 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1332 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1333 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1334 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1335 previous public/private status.
1337 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1340 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1343 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1344 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1345 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1347 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1348 take option to determine whether it should get current
1349 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1350 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1352 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1354 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1355 wait for stopped processes.
1357 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1358 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1360 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1362 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1364 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1365 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1367 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1368 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1370 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1371 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1372 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1373 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1375 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1378 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1381 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1383 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1384 the debugging output.
1386 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1387 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1389 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1391 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1393 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1394 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1396 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1398 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1399 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1400 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1401 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1402 in the given sequence.
1404 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1405 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1406 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1407 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1408 subdirectories of a given directory.
1410 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1411 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1412 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1414 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1415 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1417 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1419 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1422 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1423 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1424 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1426 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1427 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1428 are calculated at runtime.
1430 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1432 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1434 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1435 about checking for global mh.profile.
1437 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1438 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1439 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1440 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1441 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1442 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1444 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1445 adding message to folder itself.
1447 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1448 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1449 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1452 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1453 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1456 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1457 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1458 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1460 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1461 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1463 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1464 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1465 code to use it yet).
1467 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1469 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1471 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1472 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1474 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1475 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1477 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1479 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1482 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1484 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1486 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1488 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1490 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1491 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1493 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1495 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1497 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1499 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1501 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1503 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1504 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1506 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1507 configuration files.
1509 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1511 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1513 * Released nmh-0.17.
1515 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1517 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1518 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1520 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1523 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1524 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1526 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1527 number of refiled message.
1529 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1531 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1532 for return value of wait().
1534 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1536 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1538 * Released nmh-0.16.
1540 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1542 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1544 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1545 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1546 deal with binary messages, yet).
1548 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1550 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1552 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1553 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1554 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1555 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1556 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1557 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1559 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1560 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1562 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1563 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1565 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1566 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1569 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1571 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1573 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1574 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1577 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1580 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1582 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1583 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1584 which used unsigned chars by default.
1586 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1588 * Released nmh-0.15.
1590 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1595 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1597 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1600 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1601 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1602 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1604 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1605 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1607 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1609 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1610 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1612 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1613 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1614 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1615 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1617 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1618 and put in own subroutine.
1620 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1621 and put in own subroutine.
1623 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1624 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1625 refile.c to use new routine.
1627 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1629 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1631 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1634 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1635 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1636 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1638 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1641 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1642 adding message to sequence.
1644 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1645 corresponding file in sbr.
1647 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1650 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1652 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1653 all selected messages from a sequence.
1655 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1656 selected messages to a sequence.
1658 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1661 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1663 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1664 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1666 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1681 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1683 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1685 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1686 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1687 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1688 environment variable.
1690 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1691 draft folder facility in nmh.

1705 * Released nmh-0.13.
1707 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1708 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1709 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1710 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1713 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1714 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1716 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1718 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1719 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1721 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1723 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1724 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

1728 * Released nmh-0.12.
1730 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

1736 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1737 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1739 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1740 mp->attrstats with macros.
1742 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1745 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1748 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1749 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1751 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1752 will suppress the display of the message header.
1754 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1756 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1757 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1759 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1761 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1763 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1765 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1766 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1768 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1769 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1771 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1773 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1775 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1776 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1778 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1779 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
1781 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1783 * Released nmh-0.10.

1790 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1792 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1793 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1795 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1796 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1798 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1799 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
1801 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1803 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1804 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1806 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1808 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

1813 * Released nmh-0.09.
1815 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
1817 * Add configure check for killpg.
1819 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
1822 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
1824 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1826 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
1829 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1831 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
1833 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
1834 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
1836 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1838 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1839 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1841 * Released nmh-0.08.
1843 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1844 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1845 locking database itself.
1847 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1849 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1851 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1852 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1855 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1856 rather than mmdf format.
1858 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1859 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1860 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1861 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1863 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1865 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1867 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1870 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1871 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1872 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1874 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1875 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1876 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1878 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1880 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1881 can still easily change this in config.h).
1883 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1884 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1885 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1887 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1889 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1890 than tzset and external timezone variable.
1892 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1894 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
1896 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
1899 * Released nmh-0.07.
1901 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1903 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
1904 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1906 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1907 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1910 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1911 built-in FTP client in mhn.
1913 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
1914 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
1916 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
1918 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
1920 * Added configure check for tzset.
1922 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1924 * Released nmh-0.06.
1926 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1927 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1929 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1930 many such machines around anymore.
1932 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1933 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1935 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1936 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1938 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1940 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
1941 pre-generated version if necessary.
1943 * Released nmh-0.05.
1945 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1946 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1947 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1948 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1950 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
1951 be linked in one pass.
1953 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1955 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
1956 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
1958 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1960 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
1962 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1964 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
1965 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
1966 become the current folder.
1968 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1970 * Released nmh-0.04.
1972 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
1975 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1977 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
1978 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
1979 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
1981 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1983 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
1984 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
1986 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1988 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
1989 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
1992 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
1993 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
1995 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1997 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
1998 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
1999 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2000 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2001 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2002 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2004 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2006 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2007 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2009 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2010 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2012 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2014 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2015 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2017 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2019 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2020 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2021 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2023 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2025 * Released nmh-0.03.
2027 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2028 .mh_sequence file existed.
2030 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2031 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2033 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2034 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2037 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2039 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2042 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2044 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2045 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2046 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2048 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2050 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2051 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2052 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2054 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2056 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2057 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2059 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2061 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2063 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2064 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2065 directory from where the source code is located.
2067 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2069 * Released nmh-0.02.
2071 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2073 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
2076 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2078 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2079 and sys_nerr directly.
2081 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2083 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2085 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2087 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2089 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2090 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2091 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2092 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2093 rather than in script.
2095 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2097 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2099 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2100 macro defined on Solaris.
2102 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2104 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2105 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2107 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2108 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2109 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2110 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2113 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2115 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2116 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2118 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2121 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2123 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2125 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2126 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2128 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2130 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2131 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2133 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2135 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2136 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2137 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2138 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2139 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2140 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2142 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2144 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2146 * Released nmh-0.01.
2148 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2149 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2150 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2153 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2155 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2158 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2160 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2161 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2163 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2165 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2166 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2167 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2168 script to find_program.
2170 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2172 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2173 speed up -recurse option.
2175 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2176 yet, but it compiles :-)
2178 * Changed default location for install to
2179 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2180 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2181 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2184 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2185 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2186 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
