Added support for optional Content_Disposition header in mhbuild directive.s
[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
2
3 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
4 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
5 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
6 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
7 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
8 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
9 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
10 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
11
12 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
13
14 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
15 Content-Disposition header.
16
17 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
18
19 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
20 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
21 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
22 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
23 Build 10.0.3416, in particular, doesn't see attachments in
24 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
25 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
26 users to easily accomodate that by adding
27 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
28
29 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
30
31 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
32 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
33
34 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
35
36 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
37
38 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
39 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
40
41 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
42 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
43
44 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
45
46 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
47 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
48 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
49 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
50 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
51 the signature.
52
53 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
54
55 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
56 widths, restoring right justification feature
57
58 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
59
60 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
61 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
62 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
63
64 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
65 chars fit
66
67 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
68
69 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
70 handling multi column characters.
71
72 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
73
74 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
75
76 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
77
78 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
79 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
80 has been removed.
81
82 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
83
84 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
85
86 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
87
88 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
89 calling realloc.
90
91 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
92
93 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
94 calling malloc.
95
96 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
97
98 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
99 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
100 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
101 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
102
103 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
104
105 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
106 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
107 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
108 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
109 where configure's autodetection fails.
110
111 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
112
113 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
114 configure script change.
115
116 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
117
118 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
119 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
120 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
121 systems with libdb4.
122
123 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
124
125 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
126 the context is only read once.
127
128 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
129
130 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
131 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
132
133 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
134
135 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
136 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
137
138 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
139 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
140 the first one.
141
142 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
143 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
144 annotated messages.
145
146 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
147
148 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
149 vi isn't found during build.
150
151 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
152
153 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
154 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
155
156 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
157 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
158 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
159
160 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
161
162 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
163 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
164
165 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
166 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
167 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
168 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
169 very slow).
170
171 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
172 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
173 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
174
175 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
176 entry in the context file.
177
178 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
179
180 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
181 problems on some systems
182
183 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
184 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
185
186 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
187
188 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
189 sendmail isn't found during build.
190
191 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
192
193 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
194
195 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
196
197 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
198 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
199
200 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
201 references to the web page and mailing list locations
202
203 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
204 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
205
206 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
207 autoconf macros
208
209 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
210
211 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
212 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
213 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
214
215 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
216 was configured with --enable-apop.
217
218 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
219 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
220 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
221
222 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
223 new versions of flex.
224
225 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
226 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
227 doesn't guess wrongly.
228
229 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
230
231 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
232 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
233
234 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
235 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
236
237 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
238 files with numbers as names
239
240 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
241
242 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
243
244 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
245
246 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
247
248 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
249 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
250
251 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
252
253 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
254 vfork on Linux
255
256 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
257 test/report error writing to stdout
258
259 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
260
261 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
262
263 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
264 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
265 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
266
267 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
268 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
269 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
270
271 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
272
273 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
274 character set used by the current locale
275
276 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
277 message's filename overflows an int when converted
278
279 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
280 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
281
282 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
283
284 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
285 the terminal
286
287 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
288
289 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
290 from Michael Richardson.
291
292 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
293 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
294
295 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
296
297 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
298 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
299
300 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
301
302 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
303 find sub-parts of the specified part
304
305 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
306
307 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
308 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
309 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
310 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
311 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
312 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
313 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
314 that path.
315
316 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
317
318 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
319 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
320 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
321 renamed.
322
323 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
324 refiling with -src option.
325
326 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
327
328 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
329
330 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
331
332 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
333 mailpath being overwritten.
334
335 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
336
337 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
338 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
339 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
340 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
341 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
342 reinitializes the tmp file string.
343
344 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
345 if a format string was read from the profile.
346
347 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
348 path for the external hook.
349
350 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
351
352 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
353 another location for ndbm.
354
355 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
356
357 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
358 independent.
359 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
360 to empty folder.
361 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
362
363 Debian Bug#
364 136976 - Handle binary content messages
365 143427 - mh-format.man typo
366 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
367 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
368 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
369 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
370 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
371 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
372 181867 - typo for nmh.man
373
374 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
375
376 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
377 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
378 contitional code which will result in cached data to
379 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
380 and parse on the first use.
381 * Remove some unused flag bits.
382
383 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
384
385 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
386 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
387 * Fixes for bugs
388 #578 - repl leaks umask
389 #1393 - sortm core dumps
390 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
391 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
392 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
393 RFC2822 compliant
394 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
395 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
396
397 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
398
399 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
400 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
401
402 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
403
404 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
405 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
406 to docs/README.about.
407
408 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
409
410 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
411
412 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
413 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
414 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
415 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
416 enough).
417
418 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
419
420 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
421 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
422 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
423 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
424 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
425 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
426 as well.
427
428 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
429 summary configure prints out.
430
431 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
432 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
433 subjectively more readable) format.
434
435 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
436
437 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
438 all nmh commands.
439
440 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
441
442 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
443 19xx when it's not necessary.
444
445 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
446
447 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
448 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
449 roff mark-up.
450
451 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
452 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
453 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
454 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
455 the man pages correctly.
456
457 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
458
459 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
460
461 * Finished manpages ali-prev
462
463 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
464 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
465 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
466 structure.
467
468 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
469 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
470 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
471 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
472
473 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
474
475 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
476 the formatting rules I've been using.
477
478 * Finished ali-inc.
479
480 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
481
482 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
483 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
484 used in the manpages.
485
486 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
487 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
488 read in the contents of the file as the variable
489 $DATE.
490
491 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
492 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
493 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
494 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
495 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
496 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
497 bold flags and italicized parameters.
498
499 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
500
501 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
502 --with-locking option.
503
504 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
505 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
506 information was not being communicated to the
507 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
508 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
509 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
510 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
511 undefined symbols problems.
512
513 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
514 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
515 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
516 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
517 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
518 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
519 for a genuine krb4 installation.
520
521 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
522
523 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
524 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
525
526 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
527
528 * Made a new ./configure option called
529 "--with-locking" that allows the file
530 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
531 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
532
533 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
534 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
535 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
536 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
537 the user that these are the valid options, and
538 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
539 descriptive enough.
540
541 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
542
543 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
544 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
545 committed to supporting flex only, since
546 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
547 string, as well as other problems documented
548 below and on nmh-workers.
549
550 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
551 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
552 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
553 the flag.
554
555 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
556 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
557
558 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
559
560 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
561 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
562 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
563
564 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
565
566 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
567 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
568
569 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
570
571 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
572 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
573 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
574 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
575 couldn't correctly identify them.
576
577 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
578
579 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
580 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
581 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
582 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
583 not depending on an external archive.
584
585 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
586 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
587 mts/generic is no longer built.
588
589 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
590
591 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
592 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
593 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
594 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
595 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
596 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
597 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
598 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
599
600 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
601
602 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
603 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
604 correct.
605
606 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
607
608 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
609 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
610 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
611 now finally mts.
612
613 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
614 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
615 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
616 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
617
618 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
619 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
620 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
621 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
622 merged into the smtp code).
623
624 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
625 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
626 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
627 of it for us.
628
629 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
630 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
631 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
632 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
633 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
634 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
635 in the appropriate Makefile.in
636
637 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
638
639 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
640 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
641 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
642 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
643 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
644 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
645 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
646 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
647 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
648 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
649 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
650
651 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
652
653 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
654 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
655 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
656 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
657 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
658 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
659 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
660 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
661 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
662
663 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
664
665 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
666 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
667 able to access them.
668
669 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
670
671 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
672 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
673
674 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
675
676 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
677 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
678 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
679 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
680
681 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
682
683 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
684 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
685 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
686 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
687 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
688
689 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
690 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
691
692 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
693
694 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
695
696 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
697 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
698 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
699 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
700
701 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
702 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
703 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
704 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
705
706 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
707 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
708 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
709 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
710
711 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
712 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
713 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
714
715 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
716
717 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
718 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
719 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
720 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
721 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
722 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
723 my users.
724
725 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
726 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
727
728 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
729 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
730
731 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
732
733 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
734
735 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
736
737 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
738 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
739 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
740 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
741
742 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
743
744 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
745 be easily changed from "," to "#".
746
747 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
748
749 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
750
751 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
752 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
753 README.developers.
754
755 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
756
757 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
758 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
759 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
760 but not for the subsequent data stream.
761
762 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
763
764 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
765 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
766 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
767 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
768 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
769
770 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
771
772 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
773 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
774
775 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
776 cat, also define lorder as echo.
777
778 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
779
780 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
781
782 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
783 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
784 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
785
786 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
787
788 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
789 #if 0 block).
790
791 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
792 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
793
794 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
795
796 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
797 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
798
799 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
800
801 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
802 inc does not need to be setgid.
803
804 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
805
806 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
807 library, as found on Debian systems.
808
809 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
810
811 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
812
813 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
814 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
815 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
816 case-insensitivity flag.
817
818 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
819
820 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
821 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
822
823 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
824
825 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
826 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
827 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
828 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
829 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
830 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
831 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
832 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
833 getting moved aside).
834
835 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
836 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
837
838 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
839
840 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
841 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
842 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
843 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
844 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
845 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
846 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
847 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
848 the prototype, but never sets it.
849
850 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
851 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
852 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
853 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
854 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
855 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
856
857 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
858 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
859 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
860 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
861 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
862
863 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
864
865 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
866 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
867 of tws.h.
868
869 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
870 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
871 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
872 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
873 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
874 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
875 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
876
877 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
878
879 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
880
881 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
882 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
883 this works on other systems.
884
885 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
886
887 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
888 checks for write failures.
889
890 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
891
892 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
893
894 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
895 is patched in.
896
897 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
898
899 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
900
901 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
902
903 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
904 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
905 a buffer boundary.
906
907 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
908
909 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
910 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
911 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
912 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
913
914 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
915
916 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
917 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
918 place.
919
920 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
921 as well as Makefiles.
922
923 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
924
925 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
926 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
927 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
928 should make maintainability easier.
929
930 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
931 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
932 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
933 whatever you know works.
934
935 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
936
937 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
938 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
939 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
940
941 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
942 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
943 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
944 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
945
946 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
947 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
948 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
949
950 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
951 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
952 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
953 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
954 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
955
956 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
957 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
958 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
959 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
960 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
961 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
962 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
963 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
964 from the BSD version.
965
966 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
967 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
968 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
969
970 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
971 in ruserpass.c also.
972
973 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
974 report:
975
976 This happens on solaris:
977
978 % man mts.conf
979 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
980 No manual entry for mts.conf.
981
982 It is fixed by
983
984 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
985
986 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
987 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
988
989 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
990
991 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
992 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
993 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
994 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
995 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
996 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
997 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
998 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
999 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1000 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1001 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1002
1003 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1004 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1005 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1006 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1007 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1008 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1009 out of nowhere.
1010
1011 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1012 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1013 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1014 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1015 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1016
1017 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1018 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1019
1020 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1021
1022 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1023 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1024 to stdin, such as exmh.
1025
1026 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1027 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1028 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1029 other files.
1030
1031 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1032
1033 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1034 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1035 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1036 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1037 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1038 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1039 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1040
1041 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1042
1043 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1044 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1045
1046 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1047
1048 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1049 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1050
1051 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1052
1053 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1054 --enable-apop.
1055
1056 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1057 along with any -host or -user option.
1058
1059 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1060
1061 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1062
1063 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1064 process was fresh in my mind.
1065
1066 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1067
1068 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1069 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1070
1071 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1072
1073 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1074
1075 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1076 patch:
1077
1078 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1079 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1080 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1081 part of the program's name.
1082
1083 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1084 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1085 to quote.
1086
1087 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1088
1089 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1090 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1091 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1092 single-character format would cause programs using this
1093 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1094 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1095 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1096 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1097 in the array.
1098
1099 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1100
1101 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1102 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1103 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1104 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1105 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1106 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1107
1108 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1109 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1110 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1111 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1112 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1113 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1114 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1115 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1116
1117 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1118 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1119 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1120 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1121 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1122 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1123 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1124 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1125 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1126 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1127
1128 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1129
1130 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1131 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1132
1133 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1134 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1135
1136 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1137 exit 2
1138
1139 and:
1140
1141 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1142
1143 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1144 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1145 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1146 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1147
1148 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1149 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1150 problem in the routine.
1151
1152 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1153
1154 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1155 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1156
1157 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1158 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1159 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1160 spool somehow.
1161
1162 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1163
1164 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1165 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1166 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1167 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1168 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1169 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1170 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1171 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1172 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1173 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1174
1175 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1176
1177 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1178 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1179 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1180 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1181 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1182 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1183 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1184 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1185 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1186 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1187 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1188 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1189
1190 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1191 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1192 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1193 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1194 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1195
1196 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1197 POP is enabled.
1198
1199 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1200
1201 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1202 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1203 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1204 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1205 here.
1206
1207 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1208
1209 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1210
1211 * Applied, after some finessing,
1212 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1213
1214 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1215
1216 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1217
1218 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1219 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1220 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1221 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1222
1223 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1224
1225 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1226 forgetting to do so!).
1227
1228 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1229 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1230 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1231 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1232 arguments to enable all three types.
1233
1234 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1235 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1236
1237 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1238 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1239 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1240 updated copy of mts.conf.
1241
1242 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1243
1244 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1245 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1246 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1247
1248 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1249 and
1250 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1251
1252 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1253 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1254 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1255
1256 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1257 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1258 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1259
1260 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1261 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1262 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1263
1264 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1265
1266 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1267
1268 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1269
1270 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1271
1272 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1273 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1274
1275 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1276 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1277 certain suffix to run properly.
1278
1279 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1280 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1281 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1282
1283 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1284 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1285 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1286 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1287 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1288 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1289 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1290
1291 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1292
1293 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1294 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1295 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1296 until some year far in the future).
1297
1298 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1299
1300 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1301
1302 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1303 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1304
1305 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1306 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1307 corrupted.
1308
1309 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1310
1311 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1312 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1313 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1314 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1315 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1316 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1317
1318 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1319
1320 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1321
1322 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1323 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1324 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1325
1326 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1327 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1328 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1329 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1330 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1331 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1332 leads me to:
1333
1334 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1335 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1336 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1337 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1338 of masquerading individually.
1339
1340 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1341 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1342 GECOS field delimiters.
1343
1344 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1345
1346 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1347 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1348 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1349 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1350 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1351 and explaining the feature.
1352
1353 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1354
1355 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1356 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1357 so).
1358
1359 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1360 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1361 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1362
1363 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1364 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1365 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1366 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1367
1368 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1369 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1370 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1371 anywhere.
1372
1373 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1374
1375 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1376 code to be executed.
1377
1378 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1379
1380 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1381
1382 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1383 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1384 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1385 quotes embedded in them.
1386
1387 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1388
1389 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1390 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1391 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1392 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1393 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1394 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1395 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1396 allowed to specify.
1397
1398 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1399 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1400 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1401 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1402 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1403
1404 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1405
1406 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1407
1408 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1409 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1410 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1411 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1412
1413 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1414 KPOP server.
1415
1416 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1417
1418 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1419
1420 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1421
1422 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1423 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1424 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1425
1426 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1427 mhn.defaults.sh.
1428
1429 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1430
1431 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1432 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1433 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1434 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1435 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1436 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1437
1438 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1439 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1440
1441 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1442
1443 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1444 page.
1445
1446 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1447
1448 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1449 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1450 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1451 to be setgid.
1452
1453 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1454 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1455 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1456 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1457 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1458 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1459 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1460 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1461 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1462 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1463 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1464 processing that post has).
1465
1466 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1467
1468 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1469 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1470 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1471 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1472 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1473 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1474 Solaris 2.6).
1475
1476 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1477
1478 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1479
1480 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1481
1482 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1483
1484 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1485 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1486
1487 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1488 command-line.
1489
1490 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1491
1492 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1493 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1494 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1495 some development.
1496
1497 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1498
1499 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1500 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1501 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1502 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1503 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1504 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1505
1506 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1507
1508 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1509
1510 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1511
1512 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1513 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1514 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1515 caught again. This works for now.
1516
1517 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1518
1519 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1520
1521 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1522 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1523
1524 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1525
1526 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1527 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1528
1529 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1530
1531 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1532
1533 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1534
1535 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1536 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1537
1538 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1539
1540 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1541 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1542 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1543 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1544 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1545 multiple purposes.
1546
1547 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1548
1549 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1550 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1551 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1552
1553 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1554 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1555 config.guess.
1556
1557 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1558
1559 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1560 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1561 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1562
1563 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1564
1565 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1566 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1567
1568 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1569
1570 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1571 distributed.
1572
1573 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1574 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1575
1576 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1577 macros, regardless of platform.
1578
1579 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1580 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1581
1582 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1583 with x-conversions=gzip.
1584
1585 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1586
1587 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1588 post.c.
1589
1590 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1591 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1592 implicit definition of ioctl().
1593
1594 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1595 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1596 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1597 want to mess with them.
1598
1599 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1600
1601 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1602 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1603
1604 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1605 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1606
1607 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1608 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1609 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1610
1611 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1612 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1613 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1614
1615 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1616 function initgroups.
1617
1618 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1619 function.
1620
1621 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1622 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1623 to fix warnings.
1624
1625 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1626 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1627 prevent warnings.
1628
1629 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1630 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1631 statements).
1632
1633
1634 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1635
1636 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1637 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1638 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1639
1640 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1641 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1642
1643 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1644
1645 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1646
1647 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1648 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1649 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1650 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1651
1652 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1653 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1654
1655 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1656
1657 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1658
1659 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1660
1661 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1662 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1663
1664 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1665
1666 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1667 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1668
1669 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1670 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1671 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1672 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1673
1674 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1675 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1676
1677 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1678
1679 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1680 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1681
1682 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1683
1684 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1685 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1686 proper #defines.
1687
1688 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1689
1690 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1691
1692 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1693
1694 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1695 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1696
1697 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1698 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1699 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1700
1701 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1702 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1703 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1704
1705 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1706 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1707 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1708
1709 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1710 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1711 <swb@nconnect.net>.
1712
1713 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1714 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1715
1716 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1717 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1718
1719 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1720 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1721
1722 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1723 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1724 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1725
1726 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1727 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1728
1729 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1730 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1731 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1732
1733 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1734 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1735 <rmg@netapp.com>.
1736
1737 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1738 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1739
1740 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1741 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1742 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1743 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1744
1745 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1746 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1747
1748 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1749
1750 * Released nmh-1.0.
1751
1752 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1753 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1754 would not be changed.
1755
1756 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1757 one from the Apache web server.
1758
1759 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1760 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1761
1762 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1763 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1764 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1765
1766 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1767
1768 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1769
1770 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1771 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1772 verbose printing).
1773
1774 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1775 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1776 removes a bad race condition.
1777
1778 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1779 style drop file.
1780
1781 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1782 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1783 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1784
1785 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1786 sequence information.
1787
1788 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1789 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1790
1791 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1792 count.
1793
1794 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1795 is empty.
1796
1797 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1798
1799 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1800 interpret 034 as octal.
1801
1802 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1803
1804 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1805 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1806
1807 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1808 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1809
1810 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1811 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1812
1813 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1814 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1815
1816 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1817 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1818
1819 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1820 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1821 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1822
1823 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1824 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1825 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1826
1827 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1828
1829 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1830
1831 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1832 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1833 file "mhoutsbr.c".
1834
1835 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1836
1837 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1838 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1839
1840 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1841 header field information.
1842
1843 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1844 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1845
1846 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1847 values when parsing a content.
1848
1849 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1850 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1851
1852 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1853 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1854
1855 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1856 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1857
1858 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1859 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1860
1861 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1862
1863 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1864
1865 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1866
1867 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1868
1869 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1870 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1871 read.
1872
1873 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1874 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1875
1876 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1877 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1878 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1879 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1880 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1881 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1882 be setuid/setgid.
1883
1884 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1885
1886 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1887 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1888 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1889
1890 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1891 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1892
1893 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1894
1895 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1896 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1897 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1898 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1899
1900 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1901 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1902 fix).
1903
1904 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1905 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1906 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1907 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1908 arguments.
1909
1910 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1911
1912 * Released nmh-0.27.
1913
1914 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1915 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1916
1917 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1918 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1919 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1920 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1921 with no arguments.
1922
1923 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1924 mhbuild returns an error.
1925
1926 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1927 rename the draft file.
1928
1929 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1930 use a global variable.
1931
1932 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1933 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1934
1935 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1936 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1937
1938 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1939 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1940 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1941
1942 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1943 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1944
1945 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1946 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1947 this new page.
1948
1949 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1950 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1951 viamail program.
1952
1953 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1954 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1955
1956 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1957 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1958 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1959
1960 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1961 to new function output_content_folder.
1962
1963 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1964 new function output_content_file.
1965
1966 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1967 to new function parse_format_string.
1968
1969 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1970 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1971 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1972 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1973
1974 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1975 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1976 message/external file from ftp.
1977
1978 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1979 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1980 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1981
1982 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1983 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1984 mhfree.c.
1985
1986 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1987 file mhshowsbr.c.
1988
1989 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1990 new file mhstoresbr.c
1991
1992 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1993 file mhparse.c.
1994
1995 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1996 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1997
1998 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1999 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2000
2001 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2002 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2003 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2004
2005 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2006
2007 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2008
2009 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2010 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2011 to main().
2012
2013 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2014 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2015
2016 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2017 to mhparse.c).
2018
2019 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2020
2021 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2022
2023 * Released nmh-0.26.
2024
2025 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2026 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2027 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2028 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2029
2030 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2031 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2032 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2033 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2034 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2035
2036 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2037 But it is not on by default.
2038
2039 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2040 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2041
2042 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2043
2044 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2045
2046 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2047
2048 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2049
2050 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2051 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2052
2053 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2054
2055 * Released nmh-0.25.
2056
2057 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2058 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2059 uses the original name of the library.
2060
2061 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2062 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2063 links remaining.
2064
2065 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2066 list_content and list_debug.
2067
2068 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2069
2070 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2071 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2072
2073 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2074
2075 * Released nmh-0.24.
2076
2077 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2078
2079 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2080 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2081
2082 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2083 large sequence line.
2084
2085 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2086
2087 * Released nmh-0.23.
2088
2089 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2090
2091 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2092 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2093 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2094 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2095
2096 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2097 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2098 file h/mhnsbr.h.
2099
2100 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2101
2102 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2103
2104 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2105
2106 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2107 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2108
2109 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2110 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2111
2112 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2113 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2114
2115 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2116 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2117
2118 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2119
2120 * Released nmh-0.22.
2121
2122 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2123 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2124
2125 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2126
2127 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2128 mh-profile(5) man page.
2129
2130 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2131 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2132
2133 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2134
2135 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2136
2137 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2138 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2139
2140 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2141
2142 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2143 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2144 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2145
2146 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2147 source message on the standard input.
2148
2149 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2150
2151 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2152 rather than -rfc934mode.
2153
2154 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2155 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2156 only one message.
2157
2158 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2159 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2160
2161 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2162 it is still needed.
2163
2164 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2165
2166 * Released nmh-0.21.
2167
2168 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2169 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2170
2171 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2172 encoding to use.
2173
2174 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2175 to use for text contents.
2176
2177 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2178
2179 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2180
2181 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2182
2183 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2184
2185 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2186 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2187
2188 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2189 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2190 spaces between encoded word are.
2191
2192 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2193
2194 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2195 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2196
2197 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2198 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2199 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2200
2201 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2202
2203 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2204 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2205
2206 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2207
2208 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2209
2210 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2211 ISO-8859-X character set.
2212
2213 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2214 pager more.
2215
2216 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2217 permissions, not write permissions.
2218
2219 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2220 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2221
2222 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2223 distribution.
2224
2225 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2226
2227 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2228
2229 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2230 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2231
2232 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2233 message contains valid character set.
2234
2235 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2236 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2237
2238 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2239 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2240
2241 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2242 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2243 between an encoded word and normal text.
2244
2245 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2246 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2247
2248 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2249 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2250
2251 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2252 and -help.
2253
2254 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2255 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2256 loops).
2257
2258 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2259 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2260
2261 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2262 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2263
2264 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2265
2266 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2267
2268 * Released nmh-0.20.
2269
2270 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2271
2272 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2273
2274 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2275 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2276 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2277
2278 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2279 and the To: line was missing.
2280
2281 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2282
2283 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2284
2285 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2286
2287 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2288 watch the POP transaction.
2289
2290 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2291 first, and use it if available.
2292
2293 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2294 first, and use it if available.
2295
2296 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2297
2298 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2299
2300 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2301 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2302 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2303 sequence line.
2304
2305 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2306 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2307 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2308
2309 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2310 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2311 lines.
2312
2313 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2314
2315 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2316 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2317
2318 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2319
2320 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2321 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2322
2323 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2324 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2325 message to which you are replying.
2326
2327 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2328 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2329 making group replies.
2330
2331 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2332
2333 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2334
2335 * Released nmh-0.19.
2336
2337 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2338 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2339
2340 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2341 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2342 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2343 to the end of the man page.
2344
2345 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2346 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2347 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2348 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2349 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2350 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2351
2352 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2353 pages.
2354
2355 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2356 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2357 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2358
2359 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2360 the next available number above the message number you wish
2361 to preserve.
2362
2363 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2364 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2365
2366 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2367 file sbr/seq_print.c
2368
2369 * flist will now update the current folder.
2370
2371 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2372 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2373 but now undocumented.
2374
2375 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2376 traversing folders.
2377
2378 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2379 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2380
2381 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2382
2383 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2384 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2385
2386 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2387
2388 * Released nmh-0.18.
2389
2390 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2391 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2392 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2393
2394 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2395 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2396
2397 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2398 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2399 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2400 previous public/private status.
2401
2402 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2403 correctly.
2404
2405 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2406 private sequences).
2407
2408 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2409 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2410 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2411
2412 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2413 take option to determine whether it should get current
2414 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2415 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2416
2417 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2418
2419 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2420 wait for stopped processes.
2421
2422 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2423 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2424
2425 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2426
2427 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2428
2429 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2430 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2431
2432 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2433 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2434
2435 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2436 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2437 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2438 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2439
2440 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2441 status allocation).
2442
2443 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2444 the code.
2445
2446 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2447
2448 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2449 the debugging output.
2450
2451 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2452 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2453
2454 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2455
2456 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2457
2458 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2459 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2460
2461 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2462
2463 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2464 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2465 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2466 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2467 in the given sequence.
2468
2469 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2470 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2471 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2472 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2473 subdirectories of a given directory.
2474
2475 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2476 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2477 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2478
2479 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2480 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2481
2482 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2483
2484 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2485 to 0700 (was 0711).
2486
2487 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2488 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2489 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2490
2491 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2492 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2493 are calculated at runtime.
2494
2495 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2496
2497 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2498
2499 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2500 about checking for global mh.profile.
2501
2502 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2503 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2504 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2505 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2506 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2507 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2508
2509 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2510 adding message to folder itself.
2511
2512 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2513 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2514 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2515 instead of exiting.
2516
2517 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2518 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2519 the error EEXIST.
2520
2521 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2522 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2523 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2524
2525 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2526 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2527
2528 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2529 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2530 code to use it yet).
2531
2532 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2533
2534 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2535
2536 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2537 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2538
2539 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2540 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2541
2542 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2543
2544 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2545 to folder_addmsg.c
2546
2547 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2548
2549 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2550
2551 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2552
2553 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2554
2555 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2556 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2557
2558 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2559
2560 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2561
2562 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2563
2564 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2565
2566 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2567
2568 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2569 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2570
2571 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2572 configuration files.
2573
2574 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2575
2576 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2577
2578 * Released nmh-0.17.
2579
2580 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2581
2582 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2583 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2584
2585 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2586 defined.
2587
2588 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2589 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2590
2591 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2592 number of refiled message.
2593
2594 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2595
2596 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2597 for return value of wait().
2598
2599 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2600
2601 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2602
2603 * Released nmh-0.16.
2604
2605 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2606
2607 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2608
2609 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2610 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2611 deal with binary messages, yet).
2612
2613 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2614
2615 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2616
2617 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2618 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2619 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2620 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2621 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2622 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2623
2624 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2625 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2626
2627 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2628 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2629
2630 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2631 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2632 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2633
2634 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2635
2636 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2637
2638 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2639 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2640 composition files.
2641
2642 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2643 files.
2644
2645 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2646
2647 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2648 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2649 which used unsigned chars by default.
2650
2651 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2652
2653 * Released nmh-0.15.
2654
2655 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2656 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2657
2658 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2659
2660 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2661
2662 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2663 return 0.
2664
2665 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2666 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2667 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2668
2669 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2670 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2671
2672 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2673
2674 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2675 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2676
2677 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2678 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2679 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2680 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2681
2682 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2683 and put in own subroutine.
2684
2685 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2686 and put in own subroutine.
2687
2688 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2689 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2690 refile.c to use new routine.
2691
2692 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2693
2694 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2695
2696 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2697 seq_getnum.
2698
2699 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2700 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2701 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2702
2703 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2704 no longer used.
2705
2706 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2707 adding message to sequence.
2708
2709 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2710 corresponding file in sbr.
2711
2712 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2713 file in sbr.
2714
2715 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2716
2717 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2718 all selected messages from a sequence.
2719
2720 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2721 selected messages to a sequence.
2722
2723 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2724 and m_seqok.c.

2730
2731 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2732
2733 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2734 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2735
2736 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2737
2738 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2739 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2740
2741 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2742
2743 * Released nmh-0.14.
2744
2745 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2746 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2747
2748 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2749
2750 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2751 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2752 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2753 environment variable.
2754
2755 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2756 draft folder facility in nmh.
2757
2758 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2759 to fmt_compile.h.
2760
2761 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2762 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2763 fmt_addr.c.
2764
2765 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2766 options.
2767
2768 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2769
2770 * Released nmh-0.13.
2771
2772 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2773 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2774 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2775 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2776 to MAXARGS).
2777
2778 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2779 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2780
2781 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2782
2783 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2784 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2785
2786 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2787
2788 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2789 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2790
2791 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2792
2793 * Released nmh-0.12.
2794
2795 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2796
2797 * Released nmh-0.11.
2798
2799 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2800
2801 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2802 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2803
2804 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2805 mp->attrstats with macros.
2806
2807 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2808 in msh.c instead.
2809
2810 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2811 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2812
2813 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2814 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2815
2816 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2817 will suppress the display of the message header.
2818
2819 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2820
2821 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2822 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2823
2824 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2825
2826 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2827
2828 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2829
2830 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2831 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2832
2833 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2834 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2835
2836 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2837
2838 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2839
2840 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2841 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2842
2843 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2844 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2845
2846 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2847
2848 * Released nmh-0.10.

2853 by default.
2854
2855 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2856
2857 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2858 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2859
2860 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2861 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2862
2863 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2864 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2865
2866 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2867
2868 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2869 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2870
2871 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2872
2873 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2874 of missing tabs in regex.
2875
2876 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2878 * Released nmh-0.09.
2879
2880 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2881
2882 * Add configure check for killpg.
2883
2884 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
2885 <sys/ioctl.h>.
2886
2887 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2888
2889 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2890
2891 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2892 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2893
2894 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2895
2896 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2897
2898 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2899 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2900
2901 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2902
2903 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2904 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2905
2906 * Released nmh-0.08.
2907
2908 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2909 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2910 locking database itself.
2911
2912 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2913
2914 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2915
2916 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2917 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2918 option.
2919
2920 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2921 rather than mmdf format.
2922
2923 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2924 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2925 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2926 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2927
2928 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2929
2930 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2931
2932 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2933 added to packf.
2934
2935 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2936 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2937 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2938
2939 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2940 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2941 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2942
2943 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2944
2945 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2946 can still easily change this in config.h).
2947
2948 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2949 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2950 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2951
2952 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2953
2954 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2955 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2956
2957 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2958
2959 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2960
2961 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
2962 the suffix.
2963
2964 * Released nmh-0.07.
2965
2966 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2967
2968 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2969 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2970
2971 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2972 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2973 on SCO 5.x.
2974
2975 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2976 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2977
2978 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2979 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2980
2981 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2982
2983 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2984
2985 * Added configure check for tzset.
2986
2987 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2988
2989 * Released nmh-0.06.
2990
2991 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2992 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2993
2994 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2995 many such machines around anymore.
2996
2997 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2998 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2999
3000 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3001 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3002
3003 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3004
3005 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3006 pre-generated version if necessary.
3007
3008 * Released nmh-0.05.
3009
3010 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3011 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3012 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3013 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3014
3015 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3016 be linked in one pass.
3017
3018 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3019
3020 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3021 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3022
3023 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3024
3025 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3026
3027 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3028
3029 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3030 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3031 become the current folder.
3032
3033 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3034
3035 * Released nmh-0.04.
3036
3037 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3038 it.
3039
3040 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3041
3042 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3043 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3044 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3045
3046 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3047
3048 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3049 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3050
3051 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3052
3053 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3054 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3055 using POP.
3056
3057 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3058 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3059
3060 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3061
3062 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3063 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3064 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3065 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3066 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3067 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3068
3069 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3070
3071 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3072 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3073
3074 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3075 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3076
3077 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3078
3079 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3080 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3081
3082 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3083
3084 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3085 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3086 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3087
3088 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3089
3090 * Released nmh-0.03.
3091
3092 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3093 .mh_sequence file existed.
3094
3095 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3096 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3097
3098 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3099 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3100 man page.
3101
3102 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3103
3104 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3105 flist man page.
3106
3107 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3108
3109 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3110 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3111 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3112
3113 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3114
3115 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3116 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3117 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3118
3119 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3120
3121 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3122 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3123
3124 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3125
3126 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3127
3128 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3129 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3130 directory from where the source code is located.
3131
3132 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3133
3134 * Released nmh-0.02.
3135
3136 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3137
3138 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3139 and rcvtty.
3140
3141 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3142
3143 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3144 and sys_nerr directly.
3145
3146 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3147
3148 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3149
3150 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3151
3152 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3153
3154 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3155 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3156 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3157 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3158 rather than in script.
3159
3160 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3161
3162 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3163
3164 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3165 macro defined on Solaris.
3166
3167 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3168
3169 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3170 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3171
3172 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3173 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3174 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3175 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3176 options if enabled.
3177
3178 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3179
3180 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3181 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3182
3183 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3184 correctly found.
3185
3186 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3187
3188 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3189
3190 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3191 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3192
3193 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3194
3195 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3196 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3197
3198 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3199
3200 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3201 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3202 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3203 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3204 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3205 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3206
3207 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3208
3209 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3210
3211 * Released nmh-0.01.
3212
3213 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3214 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3215 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3216 have POSIX signals.
3217
3218 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3219
3220 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3221 their man pages.
3222
3223 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3224
3225 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3226 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3227
3228 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3229
3230 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3231 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3232 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3233 script to find_program.
3234
3235 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3236
3237 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3238 speed up -recurse option.
3239
3240 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3241 yet, but it compiles :-)
3242
3243 * Changed default location for install to
3244 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3245 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3246 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3247 level Makefile.
3248
3249 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3250 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3251 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
