3 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
6 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
7 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
8 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
9 part of the program's name.
11 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
12 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
15 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
17 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
18 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
19 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
20 single-character format would cause programs using this
21 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
22 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
23 when the format string was one character. This eventually
24 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
27 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
29 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
30 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
31 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
32 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
33 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
34 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
36 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
37 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
38 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
39 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
40 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
41 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
42 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
43 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
45 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
46 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
47 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
48 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
49 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
50 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
51 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
52 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
53 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
54 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
56 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
58 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
59 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
61 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
62 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
64 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
69 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
71 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
72 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
73 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
74 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
76 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
77 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
78 problem in the routine.
80 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
82 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
83 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
85 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
86 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
87 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
90 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
92 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
93 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
94 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
95 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
96 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
97 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
98 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
99 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
100 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
101 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
103 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
105 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
106 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
107 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
108 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
109 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
110 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
111 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
112 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
113 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
114 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
115 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
116 interesting than a duplication of the default.
118 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
119 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
120 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
121 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
122 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
124 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
127 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
129 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
130 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
131 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
132 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
135 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
137 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
139 * Applied, after some finessing,
140 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
142 Here's a patch that allows you to add
144 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
146 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
147 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
148 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
149 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
151 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
153 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
154 forgetting to do so!).
156 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
157 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
158 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
159 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
160 arguments to enable all three types.
162 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
163 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
165 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
166 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
167 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
168 updated copy of mts.conf.
170 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
172 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
173 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
174 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
176 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
178 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
180 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
181 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
182 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
184 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
185 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
186 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
188 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
189 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
190 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
192 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
194 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
196 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
198 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
200 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
201 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
203 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
204 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
205 certain suffix to run properly.
207 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
208 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
209 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
211 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
212 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
213 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
214 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
215 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
216 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
217 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
219 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
221 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
222 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
223 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
224 until some year far in the future).
226 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
228 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
230 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
231 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
233 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
234 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
237 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
239 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
240 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
241 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
242 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
243 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
244 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
246 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
248 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
250 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
251 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
252 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
254 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
255 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
256 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
257 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
258 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
259 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
262 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
263 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
264 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
265 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
266 of masquerading individually.
268 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
269 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
270 GECOS field delimiters.
272 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
274 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
275 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
276 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
277 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
278 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
279 and explaining the feature.
281 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
283 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
284 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
287 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
288 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
289 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
291 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
292 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
293 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
294 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
296 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
297 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
298 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
301 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
303 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
306 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
308 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
310 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
311 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
312 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
313 quotes embedded in them.
315 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
317 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
318 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
319 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
320 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
321 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
322 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
323 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
326 The other theory is that because you can say something like
327 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
328 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
329 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
330 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
332 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
334 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
336 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
337 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
338 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
339 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
341 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
344 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
346 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
348 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
350 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
351 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
352 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
354 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
357 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
359 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
360 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
361 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
362 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
363 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
364 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
366 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
367 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
369 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
371 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
374 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
376 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
377 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
378 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
381 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
382 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
383 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
384 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
385 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
386 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
387 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
388 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
389 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
390 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
391 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
392 processing that post has).
394 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
396 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
397 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
398 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
399 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
400 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
401 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
404 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
406 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
408 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
410 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
412 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
413 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
415 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
418 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
420 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
421 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
422 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
425 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
427 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
428 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
429 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
430 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
431 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
432 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
434 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
436 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
438 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
440 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
441 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
442 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
443 caught again. This works for now.
445 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
447 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
449 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
450 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
452 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
454 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
455 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
457 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
459 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
461 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
463 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
464 changes. Both need more cleanup.
466 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
468 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
469 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
470 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
471 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
472 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
475 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
477 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
478 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
479 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
481 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
482 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
485 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
487 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
488 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
489 to a directory on another device with more free space.
491 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
493 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
494 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
496 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
498 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
501 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
502 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
504 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
505 macros, regardless of platform.
507 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
508 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
510 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
511 with x-conversions=gzip.
513 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
515 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
518 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
519 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
520 implicit definition of ioctl().
522 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
523 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
524 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
525 want to mess with them.
527 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
529 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
530 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
532 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
533 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
535 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
536 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
537 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
539 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
540 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
541 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
543 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
546 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
549 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
550 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
553 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
554 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
557 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
558 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
562 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
564 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
565 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
566 preventing compilation on at least linux.
568 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
569 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
571 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
573 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
575 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
576 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
577 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
578 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
580 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
581 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
583 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
585 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
587 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
589 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
590 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
592 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
594 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
595 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
597 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
598 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
599 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
600 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
602 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
603 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
605 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
607 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
608 substitute it for mktemp if available.
610 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
612 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
613 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
616 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
618 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
620 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
622 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
623 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
625 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
626 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
627 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
629 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
630 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
631 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
633 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
634 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
635 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
637 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
638 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
641 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
642 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
644 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
645 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
647 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
650 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
651 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
652 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
654 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
655 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
657 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
658 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
659 <elleron@servtech.com>.
661 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
662 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
665 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
666 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
668 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
669 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
670 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
671 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
673 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
674 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
676 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
680 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
681 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
682 would not be changed.
684 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
685 one from the Apache web server.
687 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
688 (this should have been done a long time ago).
690 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
691 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
692 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
694 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
696 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
698 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
699 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
702 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
703 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
704 removes a bad race condition.
706 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
709 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
710 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
711 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
713 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
714 sequence information.
716 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
717 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
719 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
722 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
725 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
727 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
728 interpret 034 as octal.
730 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
732 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
733 mhstore, and mhbuild.
735 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
736 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
738 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
739 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
741 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
742 in the c_cefile structure when building.
744 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
745 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
747 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
748 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
749 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
751 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
752 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
753 and mhshow. Updated man pages
755 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
757 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
759 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
760 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
763 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
765 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
766 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
768 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
769 header field information.
771 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
772 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
774 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
775 values when parsing a content.
777 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
778 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
780 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
781 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
783 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
784 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
786 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
787 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
789 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
791 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
793 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
795 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
797 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
798 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
801 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
802 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
804 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
805 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
806 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
807 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
808 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
809 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
812 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
814 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
815 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
816 buffer length checks for this parameter.
818 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
819 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
821 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
823 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
824 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
825 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
826 of the limits on the length of command lines.
828 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
829 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
832 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
833 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
834 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
835 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
838 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
842 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
843 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
845 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
846 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
847 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
848 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
851 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
852 mhbuild returns an error.
854 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
855 rename the draft file.
857 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
858 use a global variable.
860 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
861 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
863 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
864 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
866 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
867 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
868 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
870 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
871 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
873 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
874 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
877 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
878 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
881 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
882 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
884 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
885 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
886 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
888 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
889 to new function output_content_folder.
891 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
892 new function output_content_file.
894 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
895 to new function parse_format_string.
897 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
898 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
899 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
900 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
902 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
903 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
904 message/external file from ftp.
906 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
907 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
908 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
910 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
911 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
914 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
917 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
918 new file mhstoresbr.c
920 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
923 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
924 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
926 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
927 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
929 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
930 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
931 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
933 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
935 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
937 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
938 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
941 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
942 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
944 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
947 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
949 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
953 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
954 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
955 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
956 is still the same (dashstuffing).
958 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
959 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
960 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
961 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
962 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
964 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
965 But it is not on by default.
967 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
968 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
970 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
972 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
974 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
976 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
978 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
979 number of the "cur" message when packing.
981 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
985 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
986 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
987 uses the original name of the library.
989 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
990 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
993 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
994 list_content and list_debug.
996 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
998 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
999 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1001 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1003 * Released nmh-0.24.
1005 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1007 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1008 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1010 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1011 large sequence line.
1013 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1015 * Released nmh-0.23.
1017 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1019 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1020 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1021 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1022 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1024 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1025 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1028 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1030 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1032 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1034 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1035 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1037 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1038 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1040 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1041 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1043 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1044 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1046 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1048 * Released nmh-0.22.
1050 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1051 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1053 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1055 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1056 mh-profile(5) man page.
1058 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1059 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1061 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1063 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1065 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1066 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1068 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1070 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1071 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1072 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1074 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1075 source message on the standard input.
1077 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1079 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1080 rather than -rfc934mode.
1082 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1083 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1086 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1087 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1089 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1092 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1094 * Released nmh-0.21.
1096 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1097 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1099 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1102 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1103 to use for text contents.
1105 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1107 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1109 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1111 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1113 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1114 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1116 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1117 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1118 spaces between encoded word are.
1120 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1122 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1123 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1125 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1126 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1127 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1129 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1131 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1132 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1134 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1136 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1138 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1139 ISO-8859-X character set.
1141 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1144 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1145 permissions, not write permissions.
1147 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1148 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1150 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1153 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1155 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1157 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1158 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1160 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1161 message contains valid character set.
1163 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1164 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1166 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1167 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1169 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1170 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1171 between an encoded word and normal text.
1173 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1174 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1176 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1177 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1179 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1182 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1183 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1186 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1187 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1189 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1190 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1192 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1194 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1196 * Released nmh-0.20.
1198 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1200 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1202 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1203 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1204 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1206 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1207 and the To: line was missing.
1209 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1211 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1213 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1215 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1216 watch the POP transaction.
1218 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1219 first, and use it if available.
1221 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1222 first, and use it if available.
1224 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1226 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1228 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1229 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1230 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1233 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1234 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1235 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1237 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1238 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1241 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1243 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1244 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1246 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1248 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1249 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1251 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1252 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1253 message to which you are replying.
1255 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1256 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1257 making group replies.
1259 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1261 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1263 * Released nmh-0.19.
1265 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1266 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1268 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1269 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1270 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1271 to the end of the man page.
1273 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1274 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1275 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1276 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1277 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1278 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1280 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1283 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1284 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1285 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1287 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1288 the next available number above the message number you wish
1291 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1292 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1294 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1295 file sbr/seq_print.c
1297 * flist will now update the current folder.
1299 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1300 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1301 but now undocumented.
1303 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1306 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1307 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1309 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1311 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1312 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1314 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1316 * Released nmh-0.18.
1318 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1319 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1320 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1322 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1323 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1325 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1326 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1327 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1328 previous public/private status.
1330 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1333 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1336 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1337 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1338 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1340 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1341 take option to determine whether it should get current
1342 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1343 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1345 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1347 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1348 wait for stopped processes.
1350 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1351 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1353 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1355 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1357 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1358 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1360 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1361 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1363 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1364 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1365 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1366 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1368 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1371 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1374 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1376 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1377 the debugging output.
1379 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1380 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1382 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1384 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1386 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1387 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1389 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1391 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1392 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1393 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1394 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1395 in the given sequence.
1397 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1398 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1399 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1400 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1401 subdirectories of a given directory.
1403 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1404 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1405 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1407 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1408 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1410 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1412 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1415 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1416 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1417 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1419 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1420 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1421 are calculated at runtime.
1423 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1425 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1427 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1428 about checking for global mh.profile.
1430 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1431 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1432 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1433 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1434 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1435 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1437 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1438 adding message to folder itself.
1440 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1441 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1442 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1445 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1446 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1449 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1450 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1451 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1453 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1454 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1456 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1457 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1458 code to use it yet).
1460 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1462 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1464 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1465 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1467 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1468 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1470 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1472 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1475 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1477 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1479 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1481 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1483 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1484 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1486 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1488 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1490 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1492 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1494 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1496 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1497 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1499 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1500 configuration files.
1502 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.

1508 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1510 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1511 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1513 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1516 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1517 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1519 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1520 number of refiled message.
1522 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1524 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1525 for return value of wait().
1527 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1529 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1531 * Released nmh-0.16.
1533 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1535 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1537 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1538 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1539 deal with binary messages, yet).
1541 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1543 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1545 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1546 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1547 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1548 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1549 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1550 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1552 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1553 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1555 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1556 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1558 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1559 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1562 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1564 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1566 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1567 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1570 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1573 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1575 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1576 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1577 which used unsigned chars by default.
1579 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1581 * Released nmh-0.15.
1583 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1588 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1590 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1593 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1594 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1595 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1597 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1598 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1600 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1602 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1603 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1605 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1606 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1607 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1608 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1610 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1611 and put in own subroutine.
1613 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1614 and put in own subroutine.
1616 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1617 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1618 refile.c to use new routine.
1620 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1622 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1624 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1627 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1628 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1629 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1631 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1634 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1635 adding message to sequence.
1637 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1638 corresponding file in sbr.
1640 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1643 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1645 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1646 all selected messages from a sequence.
1648 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1649 selected messages to a sequence.
1651 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1654 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1656 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1657 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1659 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1674 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1676 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1678 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1679 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1680 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1681 environment variable.
1683 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1684 draft folder facility in nmh.

1698 * Released nmh-0.13.
1700 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1701 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1702 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1703 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1706 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1707 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1709 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1711 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1712 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1714 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1716 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1717 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

1721 * Released nmh-0.12.
1723 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

1729 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1730 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1732 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1733 mp->attrstats with macros.
1735 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1738 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1741 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1742 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1744 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1745 will suppress the display of the message header.
1747 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1749 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1750 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1752 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1754 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1756 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1758 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1759 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1761 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1762 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1764 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1766 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1768 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1769 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1771 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1772 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
1774 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1776 * Released nmh-0.10.

1783 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1785 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1786 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1788 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1789 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1791 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1792 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
1794 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1796 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1797 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1799 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1801 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

1806 * Released nmh-0.09.
1808 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
1810 * Add configure check for killpg.
1812 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and

1824 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
1826 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
1827 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
1829 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1831 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1832 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1834 * Released nmh-0.08.
1836 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1837 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1838 locking database itself.
1840 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1842 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1844 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1845 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1848 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1849 rather than mmdf format.
1851 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1852 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1853 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1854 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1856 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1858 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1860 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1863 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1864 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1865 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1867 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1868 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1869 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1871 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1873 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1874 can still easily change this in config.h).
1876 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1877 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1878 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1880 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1882 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1883 than tzset and external timezone variable.
1885 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1887 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
1889 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
1892 * Released nmh-0.07.
1894 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1896 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
1897 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1899 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1900 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1903 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1904 built-in FTP client in mhn.
1906 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
1907 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
1909 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
1911 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
1913 * Added configure check for tzset.
1915 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1917 * Released nmh-0.06.
1919 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1920 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1922 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1923 many such machines around anymore.
1925 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1926 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1928 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1929 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1931 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1933 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
1934 pre-generated version if necessary.
1936 * Released nmh-0.05.
1938 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1939 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1940 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1941 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1943 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
1944 be linked in one pass.
1946 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1948 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
1949 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
1951 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1953 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
1955 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1957 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
1958 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
1959 become the current folder.
1961 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1963 * Released nmh-0.04.
1965 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
1968 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1970 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
1971 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
1972 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
1974 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1976 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
1977 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
1979 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1981 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
1982 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
1985 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
1986 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
1988 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1990 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
1991 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
1992 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
1993 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
1994 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
1995 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
1997 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1999 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2000 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2002 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2003 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2005 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2007 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2008 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2010 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2012 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2013 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2014 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2016 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2018 * Released nmh-0.03.
2020 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2021 .mh_sequence file existed.
2023 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2024 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2026 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2027 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2030 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2032 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2035 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2037 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2038 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2039 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2041 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2043 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2044 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2045 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2047 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2049 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2050 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2052 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2054 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2056 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2057 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2058 directory from where the source code is located.
2060 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2062 * Released nmh-0.02.
2064 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2066 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
2069 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2071 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2072 and sys_nerr directly.
2074 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2076 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2078 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2080 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2082 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2083 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2084 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2085 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2086 rather than in script.
2088 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2090 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2092 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2093 macro defined on Solaris.
2095 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2097 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2098 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2100 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2101 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2102 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2103 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2106 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2108 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2109 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2111 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2114 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2116 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2118 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2119 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2121 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2123 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2124 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2126 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2128 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2129 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2130 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2131 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2132 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2133 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2135 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2137 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2139 * Released nmh-0.01.
2141 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2142 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2143 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2146 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2148 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2151 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2153 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2154 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2156 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2158 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2159 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2160 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2161 script to find_program.
2163 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2165 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2166 speed up -recurse option.
2168 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2169 yet, but it compiles :-)
2171 * Changed default location for install to
2172 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2173 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2174 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2177 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2178 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2179 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
