[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
2
3 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
4 --enable-apop.
5
6 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
7 along with any -host or -user option.
8
9 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
10
11 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
12
13 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
14 process was fresh in my mind.
15
16 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
17
18 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
19 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
20
21 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
22
23 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
24
25 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
26 patch:
27
28 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
29 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
30 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
31 part of the program's name.
32
33 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
34 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
35 to quote.
36
37 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
38
39 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
40 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
41 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
42 single-character format would cause programs using this
43 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
44 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
45 when the format string was one character. This eventually
46 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
47 in the array.
48
49 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
50
51 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
52 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
53 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
54 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
55 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
56 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
57
58 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
59 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
60 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
61 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
62 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
63 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
64 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
65 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
66
67 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
68 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
69 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
70 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
71 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
72 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
73 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
74 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
75 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
76 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
77
78 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
79
80 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
81 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
82
83 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
84 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
85
86 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
87 exit 2
88
89 and:
90
91 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
92
93 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
94 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
95 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
96 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
97
98 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
99 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
100 problem in the routine.
101
102 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
103
104 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
105 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
106
107 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
108 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
109 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
110 spool somehow.
111
112 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
113
114 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
115 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
116 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
117 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
118 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
119 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
120 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
121 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
122 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
123 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
124
125 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
126
127 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
128 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
129 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
130 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
131 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
132 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
133 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
134 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
135 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
136 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
137 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
138 interesting than a duplication of the default.
139
140 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
141 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
142 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
143 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
144 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
145
146 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
147 POP is enabled.
148
149 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
150
151 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
152 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
153 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
154 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
155 here.
156
157 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
158
159 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
160
161 * Applied, after some finessing,
162 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
163
164 Here's a patch that allows you to add
165
166 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
167
168 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
169 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
170 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
171 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
172
173 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
174
175 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
176 forgetting to do so!).
177
178 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
179 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
180 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
181 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
182 arguments to enable all three types.
183
184 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
185 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
186
187 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
188 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
189 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
190 updated copy of mts.conf.
191
192 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
193
194 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
195 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
196 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
197
198 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
199 and
200 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
201
202 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
203 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
204 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
205
206 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
207 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
208 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
209
210 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
211 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
212 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
213
214 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
215
216 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
217
218 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
219
220 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
221
222 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
223 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
224
225 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
226 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
227 certain suffix to run properly.
228
229 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
230 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
231 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
232
233 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
234 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
235 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
236 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
237 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
238 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
239 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
240
241 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
242
243 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
244 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
245 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
246 until some year far in the future).
247
248 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
249
250 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
251
252 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
253 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
254
255 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
256 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
257 corrupted.
258
259 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
260
261 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
262 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
263 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
264 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
265 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
266 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
267
268 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
269
270 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
271
272 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
273 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
274 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
275
276 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
277 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
278 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
279 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
280 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
281 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
282 leads me to:
283
284 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
285 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
286 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
287 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
288 of masquerading individually.
289
290 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
291 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
292 GECOS field delimiters.
293
294 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
295
296 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
297 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
298 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
299 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
300 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
301 and explaining the feature.
302
303 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
304
305 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
306 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
307 so).
308
309 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
310 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
311 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
312
313 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
314 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
315 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
316 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
317
318 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
319 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
320 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
321 anywhere.
322
323 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
324
325 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
326 code to be executed.
327
328 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
329
330 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
331
332 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
333 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
334 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
335 quotes embedded in them.
336
337 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
338
339 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
340 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
341 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
342 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
343 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
344 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
345 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
346 allowed to specify.
347
348 The other theory is that because you can say something like
349 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
350 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
351 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
352 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
353
354 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
355
356 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
357
358 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
359 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
360 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
361 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
362
363 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
364 KPOP server.
365
366 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
367
368 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
369
370 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
371
372 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
373 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
374 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
375
376 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
377 mhn.defaults.sh.
378
379 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
380
381 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
382 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
383 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
384 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
385 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
386 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
387
388 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
389 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
390
391 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
392
393 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
394 page.
395
396 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
397
398 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
399 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
400 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
401 to be setgid.
402
403 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
404 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
405 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
406 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
407 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
408 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
409 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
410 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
411 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
412 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
413 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
414 processing that post has).
415
416 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
417
418 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
419 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
420 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
421 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
422 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
423 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
424 Solaris 2.6).
425
426 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
427
428 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
429
430 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
431
432 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
433
434 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
435 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
436
437 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
438 command-line.
439
440 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
441
442 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
443 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
444 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
445 some development.
446
447 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
448
449 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
450 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
451 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
452 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
453 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
454 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
455
456 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
457
458 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
459
460 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
461
462 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
463 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
464 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
465 caught again. This works for now.
466
467 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
468
469 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
470
471 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
472 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
473
474 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
475
476 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
477 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
478
479 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
480
481 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
482
483 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
484
485 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
486 changes. Both need more cleanup.
487
488 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
489
490 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
491 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
492 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
493 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
494 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
495 multiple purposes.
496
497 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
498
499 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
500 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
501 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
502
503 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
504 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
505 config.guess.
506
507 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
508
509 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
510 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
511 to a directory on another device with more free space.
512
513 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
514
515 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
516 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
517
518 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
519
520 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
521 distributed.
522
523 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
524 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
525
526 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
527 macros, regardless of platform.
528
529 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
530 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
531
532 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
533 with x-conversions=gzip.
534
535 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
536
537 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
538 post.c.
539
540 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
541 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
542 implicit definition of ioctl().
543
544 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
545 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
546 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
547 want to mess with them.
548
549 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
550
551 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
552 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
553
554 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
555 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
556
557 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
558 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
559 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
560
561 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
562 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
563 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
564
565 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
566 function initgroups.
567
568 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
569 function.
570
571 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
572 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
573 to fix warnings.
574
575 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
576 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
577 prevent warnings.
578
579 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
580 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
581 statements).
582
583
584 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
585
586 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
587 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
588 preventing compilation on at least linux.
589
590 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
591 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
592
593 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
594
595 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
596
597 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
598 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
599 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
600 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
601
602 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
603 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
604
605 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
606
607 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
608
609 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
610
611 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
612 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
613
614 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
615
616 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
617 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
618
619 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
620 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
621 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
622 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
623
624 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
625 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
626
627 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
628
629 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
630 substitute it for mktemp if available.
631
632 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
633
634 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
635 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
636 proper #defines.
637
638 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
639
640 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
641
642 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
643
644 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
645 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
646
647 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
648 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
649 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
650
651 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
652 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
653 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
654
655 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
656 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
657 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
658
659 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
660 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
661 <swb@nconnect.net>.
662
663 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
664 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
665
666 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
667 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
668
669 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
670 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
671
672 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
673 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
674 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
675
676 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
677 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
678
679 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
680 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
681 <elleron@servtech.com>.
682
683 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
684 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
685 <rmg@netapp.com>.
686
687 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
688 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
689
690 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
691 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
692 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
693 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
694
695 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
696 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
697
698 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
699
700 * Released nmh-1.0.
701
702 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
703 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
704 would not be changed.
705
706 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
707 one from the Apache web server.
708
709 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
710 (this should have been done a long time ago).
711
712 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
713 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
714 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
715
716 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
717
718 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
719
720 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
721 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
722 verbose printing).
723
724 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
725 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
726 removes a bad race condition.
727
728 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
729 style drop file.
730
731 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
732 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
733 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
734
735 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
736 sequence information.
737
738 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
739 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
740
741 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
742 count.
743
744 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
745 is empty.
746
747 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
748
749 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
750 interpret 034 as octal.
751
752 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
753
754 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
755 mhstore, and mhbuild.
756
757 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
758 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
759
760 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
761 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
762
763 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
764 in the c_cefile structure when building.
765
766 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
767 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
768
769 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
770 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
771 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
772
773 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
774 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
775 and mhshow. Updated man pages
776
777 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
778
779 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
780
781 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
782 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
783 file "mhoutsbr.c".
784
785 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
786
787 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
788 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
789
790 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
791 header field information.
792
793 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
794 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
795
796 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
797 values when parsing a content.
798
799 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
800 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
801
802 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
803 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
804
805 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
806 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
807
808 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
809 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
810
811 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
812
813 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
814
815 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
816
817 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
818
819 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
820 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
821 read.
822
823 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
824 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
825
826 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
827 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
828 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
829 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
830 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
831 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
832 be setuid/setgid.
833
834 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
835
836 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
837 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
838 buffer length checks for this parameter.
839
840 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
841 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
842
843 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
844
845 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
846 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
847 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
848 of the limits on the length of command lines.
849
850 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
851 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
852 fix).
853
854 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
855 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
856 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
857 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
858 arguments.
859
860 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
861
862 * Released nmh-0.27.
863
864 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
865 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
866
867 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
868 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
869 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
870 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
871 with no arguments.
872
873 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
874 mhbuild returns an error.
875
876 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
877 rename the draft file.
878
879 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
880 use a global variable.
881
882 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
883 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
884
885 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
886 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
887
888 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
889 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
890 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
891
892 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
893 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
894
895 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
896 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
897 this new page.
898
899 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
900 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
901 viamail program.
902
903 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
904 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
905
906 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
907 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
908 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
909
910 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
911 to new function output_content_folder.
912
913 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
914 new function output_content_file.
915
916 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
917 to new function parse_format_string.
918
919 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
920 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
921 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
922 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
923
924 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
925 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
926 message/external file from ftp.
927
928 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
929 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
930 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
931
932 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
933 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
934 mhfree.c.
935
936 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
937 file mhshowsbr.c.
938
939 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
940 new file mhstoresbr.c
941
942 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
943 file mhparse.c.
944
945 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
946 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
947
948 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
949 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
950
951 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
952 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
953 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
954
955 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
956
957 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
958
959 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
960 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
961 to main().
962
963 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
964 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
965
966 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
967 to mhparse.c).
968
969 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
970
971 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
972
973 * Released nmh-0.26.
974
975 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
976 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
977 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
978 is still the same (dashstuffing).
979
980 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
981 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
982 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
983 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
984 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
985
986 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
987 But it is not on by default.
988
989 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
990 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
991
992 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
993
994 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
995
996 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
997
998 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
999
1000 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1001 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1002
1003 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1004
1005 * Released nmh-0.25.
1006
1007 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1008 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1009 uses the original name of the library.
1010
1011 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1012 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1013 links remaining.
1014
1015 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1016 list_content and list_debug.
1017
1018 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1019
1020 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1021 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1022
1023 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1024
1025 * Released nmh-0.24.
1026
1027 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1028
1029 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1030 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1031
1032 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1033 large sequence line.
1034
1035 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1036
1037 * Released nmh-0.23.
1038
1039 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1040
1041 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1042 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1043 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1044 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1045
1046 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1047 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1048 file h/mhnsbr.h.
1049
1050 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1051
1052 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1053
1054 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1055
1056 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1057 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1058
1059 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1060 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1061
1062 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1063 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1064
1065 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1066 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1067
1068 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1069
1070 * Released nmh-0.22.
1071
1072 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1073 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1074
1075 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1076
1077 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1078 mh-profile(5) man page.
1079
1080 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1081 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1082
1083 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1084
1085 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1086
1087 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1088 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1089
1090 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1091
1092 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1093 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1094 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1095
1096 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1097 source message on the standard input.
1098
1099 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1100
1101 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1102 rather than -rfc934mode.
1103
1104 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1105 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1106 only one message.
1107
1108 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1109 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1110
1111 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1112 it is still needed.
1113
1114 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1115
1116 * Released nmh-0.21.
1117
1118 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1119 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1120
1121 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1122 encoding to use.
1123
1124 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1125 to use for text contents.
1126
1127 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1128
1129 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1130
1131 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1132
1133 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1134
1135 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1136 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1137
1138 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1139 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1140 spaces between encoded word are.
1141
1142 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1143
1144 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1145 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1146
1147 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1148 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1149 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1150
1151 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1152
1153 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1154 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1155
1156 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1157
1158 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1159
1160 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1161 ISO-8859-X character set.
1162
1163 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1164 pager more.
1165
1166 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1167 permissions, not write permissions.
1168
1169 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1170 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1171
1172 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1173 distribution.
1174
1175 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1176
1177 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1178
1179 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1180 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1181
1182 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1183 message contains valid character set.
1184
1185 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1186 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1187
1188 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1189 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1190
1191 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1192 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1193 between an encoded word and normal text.
1194
1195 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1196 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1197
1198 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1199 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1200
1201 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1202 and -help.
1203
1204 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1205 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1206 loops).
1207
1208 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1209 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1210
1211 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1212 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1213
1214 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1215
1216 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1217
1218 * Released nmh-0.20.
1219
1220 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1221
1222 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1223
1224 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1225 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1226 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1227
1228 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1229 and the To: line was missing.
1230
1231 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1232
1233 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1234
1235 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1236
1237 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1238 watch the POP transaction.
1239
1240 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1241 first, and use it if available.
1242
1243 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1244 first, and use it if available.
1245
1246 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1247
1248 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1249
1250 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1251 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1252 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1253 sequence line.
1254
1255 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1256 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1257 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1258
1259 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1260 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1261 lines.
1262
1263 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1264
1265 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1266 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1267
1268 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1269
1270 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1271 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1272
1273 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1274 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1275 message to which you are replying.
1276
1277 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1278 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1279 making group replies.
1280
1281 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1282
1283 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1284
1285 * Released nmh-0.19.
1286
1287 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1288 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1289
1290 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1291 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1292 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1293 to the end of the man page.
1294
1295 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1296 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1297 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1298 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1299 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1300 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1301
1302 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1303 pages.
1304
1305 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1306 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1307 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1308
1309 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1310 the next available number above the message number you wish
1311 to preserve.
1312
1313 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1314 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1315
1316 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1317 file sbr/seq_print.c
1318
1319 * flist will now update the current folder.
1320
1321 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1322 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1323 but now undocumented.
1324
1325 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1326 traversing folders.
1327
1328 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1329 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1330
1331 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1332
1333 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1334 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1335
1336 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1337
1338 * Released nmh-0.18.
1339
1340 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1341 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1342 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1343
1344 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1345 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1346
1347 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1348 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1349 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1350 previous public/private status.
1351
1352 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1353 correctly.
1354
1355 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1356 private sequences).
1357
1358 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1359 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1360 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1361
1362 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1363 take option to determine whether it should get current
1364 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1365 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1366
1367 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1368
1369 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1370 wait for stopped processes.
1371
1372 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1373 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1374
1375 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1376
1377 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1378
1379 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1380 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1381
1382 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1383 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1384
1385 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1386 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1387 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1388 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1389
1390 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1391 status allocation).
1392
1393 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1394 the code.
1395
1396 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1397
1398 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1399 the debugging output.
1400
1401 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1402 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1403
1404 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1405
1406 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1407
1408 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1409 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1410
1411 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1412
1413 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1414 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1415 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1416 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1417 in the given sequence.
1418
1419 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1420 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1421 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1422 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1423 subdirectories of a given directory.
1424
1425 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1426 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1427 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1428
1429 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1430 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1431
1432 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1433
1434 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1435 to 0700 (was 0711).
1436
1437 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1438 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1439 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1440
1441 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1442 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1443 are calculated at runtime.
1444
1445 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1446
1447 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1448
1449 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1450 about checking for global mh.profile.
1451
1452 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1453 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1454 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1455 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1456 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1457 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1458
1459 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1460 adding message to folder itself.
1461
1462 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1463 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1464 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1465 instead of exiting.
1466
1467 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1468 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1469 the error EEXIST.
1470
1471 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1472 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1473 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1474
1475 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1476 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1477
1478 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1479 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1480 code to use it yet).
1481
1482 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1483
1484 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1485
1486 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1487 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1488
1489 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1490 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1491
1492 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1493
1494 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1495 to folder_addmsg.c
1496
1497 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1498
1499 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1500
1501 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1502
1503 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1504
1505 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1506 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1507
1508 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1509
1510 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1511
1512 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1513
1514 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1515
1516 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1517
1518 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1519 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1520
1521 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1522 configuration files.
1523
1524 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1525
1526 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1527
1528 * Released nmh-0.17.
1529
1530 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1531
1532 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1533 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1534
1535 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1536 defined.
1537
1538 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1539 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1540
1541 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1542 number of refiled message.
1543
1544 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1545
1546 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1547 for return value of wait().

1555 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1556
1557 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1558
1559 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1560 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1561 deal with binary messages, yet).
1562
1563 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1564
1565 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1566
1567 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1568 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1569 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1570 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1571 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1572 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1573
1574 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1575 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1576
1577 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1578 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1579
1580 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1581 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1582 MH-6.8.4 patch).
1583
1584 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1585
1586 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1587
1588 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1589 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1590 composition files.
1591
1592 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1593 files.
1594
1595 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1596
1597 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1598 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1599 which used unsigned chars by default.
1600
1601 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1602
1603 * Released nmh-0.15.
1604
1605 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1606 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
1607
1608 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1609
1610 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1611
1612 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1613 return 0.
1614
1615 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1616 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1617 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1618
1619 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1620 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1621
1622 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1623
1624 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1625 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1626
1627 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1628 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1629 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1630 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1631
1632 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1633 and put in own subroutine.
1634
1635 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1636 and put in own subroutine.
1637
1638 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1639 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1640 refile.c to use new routine.
1641
1642 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1643
1644 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1645
1646 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1647 seq_getnum.
1648
1649 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1650 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1651 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1652
1653 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1654 no longer used.
1655
1656 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1657 adding message to sequence.
1658
1659 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1660 corresponding file in sbr.
1661
1662 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1663 file in sbr.
1664
1665 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1666
1667 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1668 all selected messages from a sequence.
1669
1670 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1671 selected messages to a sequence.
1672
1673 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1674 and m_seqok.c.

1689 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
1690
1691 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1692
1693 * Released nmh-0.14.

1696 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1697
1698 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1699
1700 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1701 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1702 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1703 environment variable.
1704
1705 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1706 draft folder facility in nmh.
1707
1708 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
1709 to fmt_compile.h.
1710
1711 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
1712 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
1713 fmt_addr.c.
1714
1715 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1716 options.
1717
1718 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1719
1720 * Released nmh-0.13.
1721
1722 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1723 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1724 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1725 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1726 to MAXARGS).
1727
1728 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1729 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1730
1731 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1732
1733 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1734 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1735
1736 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1737
1738 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1739 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
1740
1741 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1742
1743 * Released nmh-0.12.
1744

1748
1749 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1750
1751 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1752 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1753
1754 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1755 mp->attrstats with macros.
1756
1757 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1758 in msh.c instead.
1759
1760 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1761 to hide dd->dd_fd.
1762
1763 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1764 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1765
1766 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1767 will suppress the display of the message header.
1768
1769 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1770
1771 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1772 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1773
1774 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1775
1776 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1777
1778 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1779
1780 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1781 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1782
1783 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1784 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1785
1786 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1787
1788 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1789
1790 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1791 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1792
1793 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1794 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

1796 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1797
1798 * Released nmh-0.10.

1803 by default.
1804
1805 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1806
1807 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1808 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1809
1810 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1811 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1812
1813 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1814 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
1815
1816 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1817
1818 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1819 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1820
1821 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1822
1823 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
1824 of missing tabs in regex.
1825

1828 * Released nmh-0.09.
1829
1830 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
1831
1832 * Add configure check for killpg.
1833
1834 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and

1836
1837 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
1838
1839 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1840
1841 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
1842 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
1843
1844 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1845
1846 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
1847
1848 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
1849 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
1850
1851 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1852
1853 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1854 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1855
1856 * Released nmh-0.08.
1857
1858 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1859 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1860 locking database itself.
1861
1862 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1863
1864 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1865
1866 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1867 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1868 option.
1869
1870 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1871 rather than mmdf format.
1872
1873 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1874 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1875 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1876 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1877
1878 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1879
1880 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1881
1882 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1883 added to packf.
1884
1885 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1886 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1887 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1888
1889 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1890 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1891 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1892
1893 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1894
1895 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1896 can still easily change this in config.h).
1897
1898 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1899 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1900 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1901
1902 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1903
1904 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1905 than tzset and external timezone variable.
1906
1907 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1908
1909 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

1915
1916 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1917
1918 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
1919 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1920
1921 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1922 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1923 on SCO 5.x.
1924
1925 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1926 built-in FTP client in mhn.
1927
1928 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
1929 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
1930
1931 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
1932
1933 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
1934
1935 * Added configure check for tzset.
1936
1937 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1938
1939 * Released nmh-0.06.
1940
1941 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1942 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1943
1944 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1945 many such machines around anymore.
1946
1947 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1948 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1949
1950 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1951 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1952
1953 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1954
1955 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
1956 pre-generated version if necessary.
1957
1958 * Released nmh-0.05.
1959
1960 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1961 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1962 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1963 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1964
1965 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
1966 be linked in one pass.
1967
1968 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1969
1970 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
1971 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
1972
1973 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1974
1975 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
1976
1977 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1978
1979 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
1980 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
1981 become the current folder.
1982
1983 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1984
1985 * Released nmh-0.04.
1986
1987 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
1988 it.
1989
1990 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1991
1992 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
1993 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
1994 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
1995
1996 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1997
1998 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
1999 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2000
2001 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2002
2003 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2004 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2005 using POP.
2006
2007 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2008 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2009
2010 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2011
2012 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2013 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2014 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2015 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2016 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2017 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2018
2019 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2032 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2033
2034 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression

2042 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2043 .mh_sequence file existed.
2044
2045 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2046 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2047
2048 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2049 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2050 man page.

2058
2059 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'

2075
2076 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2077

2079 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2080 directory from where the source code is located.
2081
2082 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2109
2110 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2111
2112 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2113
2114 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2115 macro defined on Solaris.
2116
2117 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2118

2120 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2121
2122 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2123 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2124 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2125 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2126 options if enabled.
2127
2128 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2129

2137
2138 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2139

2142
2143 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2144
2145 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2146 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2147
2148 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2149
2150 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2151 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2152 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2153 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2154 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2155 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2156
2157 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2158
2159 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2160
2161 * Released nmh-0.01.
2162
2163 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2164 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2165 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2166 have POSIX signals.
2167
2168 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2169

2171 their man pages.
2172
2173 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2174
2175 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2176 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2177
2178 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2179
2180 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2181 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2182 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2183 script to find_program.
2184
2185 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2186
2187 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2188 speed up -recurse option.
2189
2190 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2191 yet, but it compiles :-)
2192
2193 * Changed default location for install to
2194 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2195 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2196 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2197 level Makefile.
2198
2199 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2200 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2201 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
