[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
2
3 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
4 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
5 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
6 ruserpass() has a void return type.
7
8 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
9 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
10 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
11 provide memmove() substitute implementation
12
13 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
14 source directory' feature
15
16 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
17 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
18
19 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
20
21 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
22 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
23 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
24 for the patch.
25
26 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
27
28 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
29 is the wrong approach.
30
31 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
32 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
33 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
34 length).
35
36 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
37 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
38 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
39 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
40 broken for continued lines from the server.
41
42 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
43
44 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
45 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
46
47 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
48
49 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
50
51 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
52 been branched off.
53
54 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
55
56 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
57
58 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
59
60 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
61 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
62 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
63 obsolete feature of autoconf
64
65 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
66
67 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
68 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
69 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
70
71 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
72
73 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
74 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
75
76 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
77
78 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
79 multipart messages.
80
81 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
82
83 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
84 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
85 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
86 following done() (should never be reached).
87
88 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
89
90 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
91 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
92
93 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
94
95 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
96 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
97
98 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
99
100 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
101 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
102 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
103 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
104 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
105 acconfig.h if you must.
106
107 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
108
109 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
110 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
111 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
112 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
113
114 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
115
116 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
117 inc sgid.
118
119 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
120
121 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
122 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
123 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
124 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
125 have Content-Disposition.
126
127 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
128
129 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
130 if it isn't valid.
131
132 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
133
134 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
135 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
136
137 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
138
139 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
140 encoded block is empty
141
142 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
143
144 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
145 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
146 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
147 do this.
148
149 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
150
151 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
152 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
153 dtime() prototype.
154
155 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
156
157 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
158 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
159 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
160 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
161 description.
162
163 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
164 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
165
166 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
167
168 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
169 function num_digits into utils.c
170
171 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
172
173 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
174 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
175 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
176
177 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
178
179 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
180 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
181 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
182 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
183 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
184 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
185 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
186 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
187
188 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
189
190 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
191 Content-Disposition header.
192
193 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
194
195 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
196 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
197 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
198 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
199 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
200 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
201 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
202 users to easily accomodate that by adding
203 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
204
205 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
206
207 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
208 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
209
210 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
211
212 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
213
214 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
215 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
216
217 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
218 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
219
220 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
221
222 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
223 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
224 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
225 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
226 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
227 the signature.
228
229 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
230
231 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
232 widths, restoring right justification feature
233
234 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
235
236 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
237 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
238 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
239
240 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
241 chars fit
242
243 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
244
245 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
246 handling multi column characters.
247
248 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
249
250 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
251
252 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
253
254 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
255 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
256 has been removed.
257
258 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
259
260 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
261
262 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
263
264 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
265 calling realloc.
266
267 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
268
269 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
270 calling malloc.
271
272 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
273
274 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
275 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
276 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
277 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
278
279 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
280
281 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
282 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
283 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
284 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
285 where configure's autodetection fails.
286
287 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
288
289 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
290 configure script change.
291
292 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
293
294 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
295 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
296 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
297 systems with libdb4.
298
299 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
300
301 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
302 the context is only read once.
303
304 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
305
306 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
307 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
308
309 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
310
311 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
312 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
313
314 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
315 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
316 the first one.
317
318 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
319 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
320 annotated messages.
321
322 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
323
324 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
325 vi isn't found during build.
326
327 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
328
329 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
330 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
331
332 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
333 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
334 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
335
336 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
337
338 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
339 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
340
341 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
342 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
343 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
344 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
345 very slow).
346
347 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
348 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
349 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
350
351 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
352 entry in the context file.
353
354 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
355
356 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
357 problems on some systems
358
359 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
360 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
361
362 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
363
364 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
365 sendmail isn't found during build.
366
367 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
368
369 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
370
371 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
372
373 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
374 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
375
376 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
377 references to the web page and mailing list locations
378
379 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
380 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
381
382 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
383 autoconf macros
384
385 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
386
387 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
388 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
389 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
390
391 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
392 was configured with --enable-apop.
393
394 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
395 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
396 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
397
398 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
399 new versions of flex.
400
401 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
402 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
403 doesn't guess wrongly.
404
405 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
406
407 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
408 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
409
410 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
411 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
412
413 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
414 files with numbers as names
415
416 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
417
418 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
419
420 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
421
422 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
423
424 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
425 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
426
427 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
428
429 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
430 vfork on Linux
431
432 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
433 test/report error writing to stdout
434
435 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
436
437 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
438
439 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
440 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
441 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
442
443 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
444 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
445 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
446
447 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
448
449 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
450 character set used by the current locale
451
452 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
453 message's filename overflows an int when converted
454
455 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
456 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
457
458 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
459
460 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
461 the terminal
462
463 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
464
465 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
466 from Michael Richardson.
467
468 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
469 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
470
471 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
472
473 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
474 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used

476 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
477
478 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
479 find sub-parts of the specified part
480
481 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
482
483 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
484 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
485 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
486 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
487 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
488 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
489 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
490 that path.
491
492 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
493
494 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
495 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
496 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
497 renamed.
498
499 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
500 refiling with -src option.
501
502 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
503
504 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
505
506 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
507
508 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
509 mailpath being overwritten.
510
511 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
512
513 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
514 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
515 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
516 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
517 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
518 reinitializes the tmp file string.
519
520 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
521 if a format string was read from the profile.
522
523 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
524 path for the external hook.
525
526 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
527
528 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
529 another location for ndbm.
530
531 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
532
533 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
534 independent.
535 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
536 to empty folder.
537 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
538
539 Debian Bug#
540 136976 - Handle binary content messages
541 143427 - mh-format.man typo
542 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
543 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
544 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
545 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
546 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
547 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
548 181867 - typo for nmh.man
549
550 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
551
552 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
553 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
554 contitional code which will result in cached data to
555 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
556 and parse on the first use.
557 * Remove some unused flag bits.
558
559 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
560
561 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
562 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
563 * Fixes for bugs
564 #578 - repl leaks umask
565 #1393 - sortm core dumps
566 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
567 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
568 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
569 RFC2822 compliant
570 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
571 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
572
573 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
574
575 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
576 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
577
578 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
579
580 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
581 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
582 to docs/README.about.
583
584 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
585
586 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
587
588 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
589 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
590 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
591 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
592 enough).
593
594 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
595
596 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
597 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
598 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
599 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
600 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
601 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
602 as well.
603
604 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
605 summary configure prints out.
606
607 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
608 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
609 subjectively more readable) format.
610
611 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
612
613 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
614 all nmh commands.
615
616 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
617
618 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
619 19xx when it's not necessary.
620
621 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
622
623 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
624 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
625 roff mark-up.
626
627 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
628 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
629 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
630 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
631 the man pages correctly.
632
633 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
634
635 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
636
637 * Finished manpages ali-prev
638
639 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
640 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
641 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
642 structure.
643
644 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
645 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
646 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
647 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
648
649 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
650
651 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
652 the formatting rules I've been using.
653
654 * Finished ali-inc.
655
656 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
657
658 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
659 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
660 used in the manpages.
661
662 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
663 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
664 read in the contents of the file as the variable
665 $DATE.
666
667 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
668 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
669 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
670 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
671 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
672 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
673 bold flags and italicized parameters.
674
675 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
676
677 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
678 --with-locking option.
679
680 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
681 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
682 information was not being communicated to the
683 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
684 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
685 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
686 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
687 undefined symbols problems.
688
689 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
690 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
691 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
692 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
693 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
694 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
695 for a genuine krb4 installation.
696
697 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
698
699 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
700 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
701
702 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
703
704 * Made a new ./configure option called
705 "--with-locking" that allows the file
706 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
707 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
708
709 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
710 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
711 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
712 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
713 the user that these are the valid options, and
714 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
715 descriptive enough.
716
717 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
718
719 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
720 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
721 committed to supporting flex only, since
722 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
723 string, as well as other problems documented
724 below and on nmh-workers.
725
726 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
727 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
728 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
729 the flag.
730
731 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
732 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
733
734 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
735
736 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
737 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
738 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
739
740 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
741
742 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
743 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
744
745 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
746
747 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
748 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
749 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
750 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
751 couldn't correctly identify them.
752
753 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
754
755 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
756 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
757 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
758 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
759 not depending on an external archive.
760
761 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
762 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
763 mts/generic is no longer built.
764
765 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
766
767 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
768 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
769 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
770 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
771 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
772 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
773 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
774 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
775
776 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
777
778 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
779 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
780 correct.
781
782 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
783
784 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
785 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
786 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
787 now finally mts.
788
789 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
790 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
791 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
792 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
793
794 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
795 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
796 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
797 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
798 merged into the smtp code).
799
800 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
801 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
802 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
803 of it for us.
804
805 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
806 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
807 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
808 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
809 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
810 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
811 in the appropriate Makefile.in
812
813 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
814
815 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
816 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
817 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
818 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
819 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
820 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
821 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
822 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
823 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
824 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
825 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
826
827 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
828
829 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
830 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
831 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
832 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
833 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
834 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
835 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
836 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
837 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
838
839 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
840
841 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
842 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
843 able to access them.
844
845 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
846
847 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
848 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
849
850 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
851
852 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
853 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
854 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
855 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
856
857 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
858
859 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
860 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
861 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
862 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
863 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
864
865 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
866 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
867
868 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
869
870 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
871
872 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
873 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
874 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
875 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
876
877 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
878 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
879 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
880 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
881
882 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
883 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
884 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
885 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
886
887 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
888 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
889 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
890
891 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
892
893 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
894 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
895 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
896 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
897 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
898 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
899 my users.
900
901 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
902 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
903
904 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
905 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
906
907 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
908
909 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
910
911 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
912
913 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
914 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
915 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
916 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
917
918 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
919
920 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
921 be easily changed from "," to "#".
922
923 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
924
925 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
926
927 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
928 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
929 README.developers.
930
931 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
932
933 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
934 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
935 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
936 but not for the subsequent data stream.
937
938 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
939
940 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
941 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
942 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
943 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
944 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
945
946 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
947
948 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
949 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
950
951 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
952 cat, also define lorder as echo.
953
954 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
955
956 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
957
958 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
959 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
960 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
961
962 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
963
964 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
965 #if 0 block).
966
967 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
968 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
969
970 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
971
972 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
973 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
974
975 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
976
977 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
978 inc does not need to be setgid.
979
980 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
981
982 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
983 library, as found on Debian systems.
984
985 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
986
987 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
988
989 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
990 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
991 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
992 case-insensitivity flag.
993
994 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
995
996 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
997 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
998
999 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1000
1001 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1002 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1003 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1004 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1005 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1006 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1007 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1008 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1009 getting moved aside).
1010
1011 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1012 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1013
1014 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1015
1016 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1017 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1018 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1019 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1020 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1021 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1022 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1023 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1024 the prototype, but never sets it.
1025
1026 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1027 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1028 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1029 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1030 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1031 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1032
1033 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1034 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1035 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1036 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1037 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1038
1039 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1040
1041 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1042 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1043 of tws.h.
1044
1045 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1046 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1047 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1048 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1049 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1050 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1051 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1052
1053 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1054
1055 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1056
1057 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1058 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1059 this works on other systems.
1060
1061 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1062
1063 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1064 checks for write failures.
1065
1066 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1067
1068 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1069
1070 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1071 is patched in.
1072
1073 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1074
1075 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1076
1077 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1078
1079 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1080 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1081 a buffer boundary.
1082
1083 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1084
1085 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1086 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1087 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1088 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1089
1090 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1091
1092 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1093 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1094 place.
1095
1096 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1097 as well as Makefiles.
1098
1099 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1100
1101 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1102 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1103 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1104 should make maintainability easier.
1105
1106 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1107 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1108 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1109 whatever you know works.
1110
1111 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1112
1113 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1114 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1115 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1116
1117 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1118 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1119 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1120 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1121
1122 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1123 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1124 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1125
1126 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1127 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1128 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1129 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1130 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1131
1132 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1133 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1134 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1135 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1136 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1137 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1138 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1139 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1140 from the BSD version.
1141
1142 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1143 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1144 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1145
1146 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1147 in ruserpass.c also.
1148
1149 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1150 report:
1151
1152 This happens on solaris:
1153
1154 % man mts.conf
1155 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1156 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1157
1158 It is fixed by
1159
1160 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1161
1162 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1163 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1164
1165 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1166
1167 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1168 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1169 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1170 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1171 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1172 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1173 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1174 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1175 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1176 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1177 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1178
1179 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1180 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1181 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1182 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1183 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1184 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1185 out of nowhere.
1186
1187 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1188 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1189 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1190 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1191 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1192
1193 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1194 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1195
1196 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1197
1198 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1199 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1200 to stdin, such as exmh.
1201
1202 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1203 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1204 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1205 other files.
1206
1207 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1208
1209 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1210 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1211 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1212 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1213 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1214 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1215 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1216
1217 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1218
1219 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1220 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1221
1222 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1223
1224 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1225 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1226
1227 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1228
1229 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1230 --enable-apop.
1231
1232 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1233 along with any -host or -user option.
1234
1235 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1236
1237 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1238
1239 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1240 process was fresh in my mind.
1241
1242 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1243
1244 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1245 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1246
1247 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1248
1249 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1250
1251 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1252 patch:
1253
1254 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1255 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1256 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1257 part of the program's name.
1258
1259 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1260 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1261 to quote.
1262
1263 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1264
1265 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1266 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1267 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1268 single-character format would cause programs using this
1269 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1270 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1271 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1272 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1273 in the array.
1274
1275 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1276
1277 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1278 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1279 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1280 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1281 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1282 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1283
1284 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1285 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1286 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1287 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1288 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1289 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1290 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1291 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1292
1293 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1294 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1295 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1296 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1297 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1298 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1299 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1300 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1301 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1302 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1303
1304 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1305
1306 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1307 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1308
1309 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1310 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1311
1312 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1313 exit 2
1314
1315 and:
1316
1317 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1318
1319 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1320 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1321 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1322 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1323
1324 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1325 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1326 problem in the routine.
1327
1328 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1329
1330 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1331 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1332
1333 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1334 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1335 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1336 spool somehow.
1337
1338 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1339
1340 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1341 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1342 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1343 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1344 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1345 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1346 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1347 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1348 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1349 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1350
1351 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1352
1353 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1354 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1355 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1356 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1357 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1358 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1359 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1360 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1361 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1362 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1363 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1364 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1365
1366 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1367 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1368 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1369 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1370 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1371
1372 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1373 POP is enabled.
1374
1375 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1376
1377 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1378 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1379 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1380 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1381 here.
1382
1383 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1384
1385 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1386
1387 * Applied, after some finessing,
1388 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1389
1390 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1391
1392 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1393
1394 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1395 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1396 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1397 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1398
1399 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1400
1401 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1402 forgetting to do so!).
1403
1404 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1405 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1406 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1407 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1408 arguments to enable all three types.
1409
1410 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1411 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1412
1413 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1414 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1415 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1416 updated copy of mts.conf.
1417
1418 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1419
1420 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1421 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1422 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1423
1424 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1425 and
1426 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1427
1428 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1429 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1430 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1431
1432 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1433 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1434 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1435
1436 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1437 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1438 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1439
1440 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1441
1442 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1443
1444 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1445
1446 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1447
1448 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1449 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1450
1451 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1452 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1453 certain suffix to run properly.
1454
1455 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1456 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1457 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1458
1459 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1460 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1461 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1462 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1463 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1464 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1465 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1466
1467 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1468
1469 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1470 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1471 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1472 until some year far in the future).
1473
1474 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1475
1476 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1477
1478 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1479 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1480
1481 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1482 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1483 corrupted.
1484
1485 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1486
1487 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1488 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1489 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1490 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1491 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1492 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1493
1494 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1495
1496 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1497
1498 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1499 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1500 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1501
1502 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1503 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1504 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1505 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1506 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1507 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1508 leads me to:
1509
1510 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1511 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1512 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1513 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1514 of masquerading individually.
1515
1516 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1517 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1518 GECOS field delimiters.
1519
1520 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1521
1522 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1523 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1524 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1525 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1526 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1527 and explaining the feature.
1528
1529 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1530
1531 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1532 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1533 so).
1534
1535 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1536 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1537 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1538
1539 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1540 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1541 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1542 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1543
1544 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1545 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1546 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1547 anywhere.
1548
1549 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1550
1551 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1552 code to be executed.
1553
1554 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1555
1556 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1557
1558 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1559 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1560 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1561 quotes embedded in them.
1562
1563 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1564
1565 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1566 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1567 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1568 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1569 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1570 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1571 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1572 allowed to specify.
1573
1574 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1575 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1576 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1577 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1578 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1579
1580 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1581
1582 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1583
1584 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1585 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1586 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1587 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1588
1589 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1590 KPOP server.
1591
1592 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1593
1594 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1595
1596 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1597
1598 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1599 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1600 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1601
1602 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1603 mhn.defaults.sh.
1604
1605 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1606
1607 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1608 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1609 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1610 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1611 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1612 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1613
1614 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1615 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1616
1617 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1618
1619 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1620 page.
1621
1622 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1623
1624 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1625 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1626 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1627 to be setgid.
1628
1629 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1630 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1631 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1632 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1633 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1634 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1635 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1636 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1637 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1638 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1639 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1640 processing that post has).
1641
1642 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1643
1644 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1645 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1646 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1647 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1648 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1649 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1650 Solaris 2.6).
1651
1652 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1653
1654 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1655
1656 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1657
1658 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1659
1660 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1661 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1662
1663 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1664 command-line.
1665
1666 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1667
1668 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1669 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1670 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1671 some development.
1672
1673 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1674
1675 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1676 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1677 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1678 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1679 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1680 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1681
1682 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1683
1684 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1685
1686 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1687
1688 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1689 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1690 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1691 caught again. This works for now.
1692
1693 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1694
1695 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1696
1697 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1698 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1699
1700 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1701
1702 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1703 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1704
1705 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1706
1707 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1708
1709 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1710
1711 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1712 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1713
1714 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1715
1716 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1717 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1718 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1719 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1720 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1721 multiple purposes.
1722
1723 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1724
1725 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1726 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1727 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1728
1729 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1730 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1731 config.guess.
1732
1733 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1734
1735 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1736 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1737 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1738
1739 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1740
1741 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1742 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1743
1744 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1745
1746 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1747 distributed.
1748
1749 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1750 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1751
1752 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1753 macros, regardless of platform.
1754
1755 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1756 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1757
1758 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1759 with x-conversions=gzip.
1760
1761 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1762
1763 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1764 post.c.
1765
1766 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1767 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1768 implicit definition of ioctl().
1769
1770 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1771 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1772 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1773 want to mess with them.
1774
1775 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1776
1777 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1778 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1779
1780 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1781 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1782
1783 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1784 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1785 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1786
1787 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1788 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1789 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1790
1791 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1792 function initgroups.
1793
1794 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1795 function.
1796
1797 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1798 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1799 to fix warnings.
1800
1801 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1802 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1803 prevent warnings.
1804
1805 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1806 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1807 statements).
1808
1809
1810 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1811
1812 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1813 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1814 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1815
1816 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1817 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1818
1819 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1820
1821 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1822
1823 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1824 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1825 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1826 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1827
1828 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1829 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1830
1831 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1832
1833 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1834
1835 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1836
1837 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1838 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1839
1840 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1841
1842 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1843 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1844
1845 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1846 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1847 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1848 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1849
1850 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1851 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1852
1853 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1854
1855 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1856 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1857
1858 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1859
1860 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1861 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1862 proper #defines.
1863
1864 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1865
1866 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1867
1868 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1869
1870 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1871 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1872
1873 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1874 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1875 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1876
1877 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1878 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1879 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1880
1881 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1882 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1883 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1884
1885 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1886 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1887 <swb@nconnect.net>.
1888
1889 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1890 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1891
1892 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1893 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1894
1895 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1896 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1897
1898 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1899 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1900 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1901
1902 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1903 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1904
1905 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1906 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1907 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1908
1909 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1910 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1911 <rmg@netapp.com>.
1912
1913 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1914 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1915
1916 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1917 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1918 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1919 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1920
1921 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1922 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1923
1924 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1925
1926 * Released nmh-1.0.
1927
1928 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1929 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1930 would not be changed.
1931
1932 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1933 one from the Apache web server.
1934
1935 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1936 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1937
1938 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1939 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1940 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1941
1942 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1943
1944 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1945
1946 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1947 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1948 verbose printing).
1949
1950 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1951 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1952 removes a bad race condition.
1953
1954 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1955 style drop file.
1956
1957 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1958 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1959 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1960
1961 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1962 sequence information.
1963
1964 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1965 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1966
1967 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1968 count.
1969
1970 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1971 is empty.
1972
1973 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1974
1975 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1976 interpret 034 as octal.
1977
1978 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1979
1980 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1981 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1982
1983 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1984 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1985
1986 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1987 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1988
1989 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1990 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1991
1992 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1993 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1994
1995 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1996 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1997 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1998
1999 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2000 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2001 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2002
2003 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2004
2005 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2006
2007 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2008 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2009 file "mhoutsbr.c".
2010
2011 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2012
2013 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2014 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2015
2016 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2017 header field information.
2018
2019 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2020 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2021
2022 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2023 values when parsing a content.
2024
2025 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2026 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2027
2028 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2029 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2030
2031 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2032 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2033
2034 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2035 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2036
2037 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2038
2039 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2040
2041 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2042
2043 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2044
2045 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2046 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2047 read.
2048
2049 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2050 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2051
2052 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2053 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2054 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2055 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2056 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2057 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2058 be setuid/setgid.
2059
2060 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2061
2062 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2063 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2064 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2065
2066 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2067 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2068
2069 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2070
2071 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2072 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2073 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2074 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2075
2076 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2077 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2078 fix).
2079
2080 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2081 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2082 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2083 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2084 arguments.
2085
2086 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2087
2088 * Released nmh-0.27.
2089
2090 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2091 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2092
2093 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2094 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2095 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2096 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2097 with no arguments.
2098
2099 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2100 mhbuild returns an error.
2101
2102 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2103 rename the draft file.
2104
2105 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2106 use a global variable.
2107
2108 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2109 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2110
2111 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2112 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2113
2114 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2115 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2116 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2117
2118 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2119 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2120
2121 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2122 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2123 this new page.
2124
2125 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2126 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2127 viamail program.
2128
2129 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2130 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2131
2132 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2133 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2134 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2135
2136 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2137 to new function output_content_folder.
2138
2139 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2140 new function output_content_file.
2141
2142 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2143 to new function parse_format_string.
2144
2145 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2146 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2147 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2148 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2149
2150 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2151 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2152 message/external file from ftp.
2153
2154 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2155 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2156 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2157
2158 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2159 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2160 mhfree.c.
2161
2162 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2163 file mhshowsbr.c.
2164
2165 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2166 new file mhstoresbr.c
2167
2168 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2169 file mhparse.c.
2170
2171 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2172 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2173
2174 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2175 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2176
2177 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2178 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2179 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2180
2181 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2182
2183 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2184
2185 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2186 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2187 to main().
2188
2189 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2190 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2191
2192 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2193 to mhparse.c).
2194
2195 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2196
2197 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2198
2199 * Released nmh-0.26.
2200
2201 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2202 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2203 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2204 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2205
2206 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2207 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2208 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2209 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2210 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2211
2212 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2213 But it is not on by default.
2214
2215 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2216 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2217
2218 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2219
2220 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2221
2222 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2223
2224 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2225
2226 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2227 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2228
2229 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2230
2231 * Released nmh-0.25.
2232
2233 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2234 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2235 uses the original name of the library.
2236
2237 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2238 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2239 links remaining.
2240
2241 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2242 list_content and list_debug.
2243
2244 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2245
2246 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2247 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2248
2249 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2250
2251 * Released nmh-0.24.
2252
2253 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2254
2255 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2256 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2257
2258 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2259 large sequence line.
2260
2261 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2262
2263 * Released nmh-0.23.
2264
2265 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2266
2267 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2268 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2269 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2270 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2271
2272 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2273 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2274 file h/mhnsbr.h.
2275
2276 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2277
2278 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2279
2280 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2281
2282 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2283 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2284
2285 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2286 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2287
2288 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2289 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2290
2291 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2292 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2293
2294 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2295
2296 * Released nmh-0.22.
2297
2298 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2299 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2300
2301 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2302
2303 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2304 mh-profile(5) man page.
2305
2306 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2307 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2308
2309 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2310
2311 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2312
2313 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2314 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2315
2316 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2317
2318 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2319 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2320 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2321
2322 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2323 source message on the standard input.
2324
2325 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2326
2327 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2328 rather than -rfc934mode.
2329
2330 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2331 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2332 only one message.
2333
2334 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2335 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2336
2337 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2338 it is still needed.
2339
2340 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2341
2342 * Released nmh-0.21.
2343
2344 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2345 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2346
2347 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2348 encoding to use.
2349
2350 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2351 to use for text contents.
2352
2353 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2354
2355 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2356
2357 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2358
2359 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2360
2361 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2362 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2363
2364 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2365 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2366 spaces between encoded word are.
2367
2368 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2369
2370 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2371 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2372
2373 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2374 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2375 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2376
2377 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2378
2379 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2380 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2381
2382 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2383
2384 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2385
2386 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2387 ISO-8859-X character set.
2388
2389 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2390 pager more.
2391
2392 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2393 permissions, not write permissions.
2394
2395 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2396 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2397
2398 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2399 distribution.
2400
2401 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2402
2403 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2404
2405 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2406 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2407
2408 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2409 message contains valid character set.
2410
2411 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2412 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2413
2414 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2415 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2416
2417 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2418 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2419 between an encoded word and normal text.
2420
2421 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2422 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2423
2424 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2425 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2426
2427 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2428 and -help.
2429
2430 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2431 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2432 loops).
2433
2434 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2435 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2436
2437 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2438 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2439
2440 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2441
2442 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2443
2444 * Released nmh-0.20.
2445
2446 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2447
2448 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2449
2450 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2451 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2452 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2453
2454 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2455 and the To: line was missing.
2456
2457 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2458
2459 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2460
2461 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2462
2463 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2464 watch the POP transaction.
2465
2466 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2467 first, and use it if available.
2468
2469 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2470 first, and use it if available.
2471
2472 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2473
2474 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2475
2476 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2477 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2478 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2479 sequence line.
2480
2481 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2482 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2483 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2484
2485 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2486 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2487 lines.
2488
2489 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2490
2491 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2492 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2493
2494 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2495
2496 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2497 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2498
2499 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2500 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2501 message to which you are replying.
2502
2503 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2504 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2505 making group replies.
2506
2507 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2508
2509 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2510
2511 * Released nmh-0.19.
2512
2513 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2514 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2515
2516 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2517 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2518 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2519 to the end of the man page.
2520
2521 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2522 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2523 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2524 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2525 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2526 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2527
2528 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2529 pages.
2530
2531 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2532 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2533 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2534
2535 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2536 the next available number above the message number you wish
2537 to preserve.
2538
2539 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2540 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2541
2542 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2543 file sbr/seq_print.c
2544
2545 * flist will now update the current folder.
2546
2547 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2548 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2549 but now undocumented.
2550
2551 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2552 traversing folders.
2553
2554 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2555 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2556
2557 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2558
2559 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2560 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2561
2562 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2563
2564 * Released nmh-0.18.
2565
2566 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2567 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2568 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2569
2570 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2571 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2572
2573 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2574 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2575 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2576 previous public/private status.
2577
2578 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2579 correctly.
2580
2581 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2582 private sequences).
2583
2584 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2585 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2586 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2587
2588 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2589 take option to determine whether it should get current
2590 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2591 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2592
2593 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2594
2595 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2596 wait for stopped processes.
2597
2598 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2599 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2600
2601 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2602
2603 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2604
2605 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2606 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2607
2608 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2609 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2610
2611 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2612 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2613 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2614 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2615
2616 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2617 status allocation).
2618
2619 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2620 the code.
2621
2622 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2623
2624 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2625 the debugging output.
2626
2627 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2628 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2629
2630 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2631
2632 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2633
2634 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2635 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2636
2637 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2638
2639 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2640 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2641 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2642 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2643 in the given sequence.
2644
2645 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2646 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2647 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2648 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2649 subdirectories of a given directory.
2650
2651 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2652 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2653 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2654
2655 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2656 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2657
2658 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2659
2660 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2661 to 0700 (was 0711).
2662
2663 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2664 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2665 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2666
2667 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2668 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2669 are calculated at runtime.
2670
2671 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2672
2673 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2674
2675 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2676 about checking for global mh.profile.
2677
2678 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2679 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2680 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2681 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2682 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2683 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2684
2685 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2686 adding message to folder itself.
2687
2688 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2689 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2690 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2691 instead of exiting.
2692
2693 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2694 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2695 the error EEXIST.
2696
2697 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2698 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2699 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2700
2701 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2702 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2703
2704 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2705 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2706 code to use it yet).
2707
2708 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2709
2710 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2711
2712 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2713 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2714
2715 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2716 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2717
2718 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2719
2720 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2721 to folder_addmsg.c
2722
2723 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2724
2725 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2726
2727 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2728
2729 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2730
2731 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2732 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2733
2734 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2735
2736 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2737
2738 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2739
2740 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2741
2742 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2743
2744 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2745 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2746
2747 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2748 configuration files.
2749
2750 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2751
2752 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2753
2754 * Released nmh-0.17.
2755
2756 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2757
2758 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2759 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2760
2761 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2762 defined.
2763
2764 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2765 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2766
2767 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2768 number of refiled message.
2769
2770 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2771
2772 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2773 for return value of wait().
2774
2775 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2776
2777 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2778
2779 * Released nmh-0.16.
2780
2781 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2782
2783 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2784
2785 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2786 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2787 deal with binary messages, yet).
2788
2789 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2790
2791 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2792
2793 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2794 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2795 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2796 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2797 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2798 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2799
2800 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2801 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2802
2803 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2804 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2805
2806 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2807 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2808 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2809
2810 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2811
2812 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2813
2814 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2815 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2816 composition files.
2817
2818 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2819 files.
2820
2821 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2822
2823 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2824 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2825 which used unsigned chars by default.
2826
2827 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2828
2829 * Released nmh-0.15.
2830
2831 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2832 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2833
2834 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2835
2836 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2837
2838 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2839 return 0.
2840
2841 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2842 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2843 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2844
2845 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2846 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2847
2848 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2849
2850 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2851 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2852
2853 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2854 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2855 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2856 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2857
2858 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2859 and put in own subroutine.
2860
2861 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2862 and put in own subroutine.
2863
2864 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2865 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2866 refile.c to use new routine.
2867
2868 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2869
2870 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2871
2872 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2873 seq_getnum.
2874
2875 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2876 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2877 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2878
2879 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2880 no longer used.
2881
2882 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2883 adding message to sequence.

2945
2946 * Released nmh-0.13.

2948 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2949 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2950 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2951 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited

2955 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2956
2957 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2958
2959 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if

2979
2980 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2981 mp->attrstats with macros.

2983 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2984 in msh.c instead.
2985
2986 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2987 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2988
2989 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2990 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).

3007 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3008
3009 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3010 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3011
3012 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3013
3014 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.

3037 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3038
3039 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

3071
3072 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3073
3074 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted

3076
3077 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3078
3079 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3080 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3081
3082 * Released nmh-0.08.
3083
3084 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3085 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3086 locking database itself.
3087
3088 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3089
3090 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3091
3092 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in

3094 option.
3095
3096 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3097 rather than mmdf format.
3098
3099 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3100 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3101 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3102 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3103
3104 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3105
3106 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3107
3108 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3109 added to packf.
3110
3111 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3112 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3113 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3114
3115 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3116 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3117 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3118
3119 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3120
3121 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3122 can still easily change this in config.h).
3123
3124 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3125 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3126 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3127
3128 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3129
3130 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

3145 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3146
3147 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3148 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3149 on SCO 5.x.
3150
3151 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3152 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3153
3154 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3155 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3156
3157 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3158
3159 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3160

3164
3165 * Released nmh-0.06.
3166
3167 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3168 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3169
3170 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3171 many such machines around anymore.
3172
3173 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3174 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.

3182 pre-generated version if necessary.
3183
3184 * Released nmh-0.05.
3185
3186 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3187 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3188 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3189 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3190
3191 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3192 be linked in one pass.
3193
3194 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3195
3196 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3197 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3198
3199 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3200
3201 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.

3203 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3204
3205 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3206 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3207 become the current folder.
3208
3209 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3217
3218 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3219 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3220 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3221
3222 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3223
3224 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3225 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3226
3227 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3228
3229 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3230 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3231 using POP.
3232
3233 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3234 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3235
3236 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3237
3238 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3239 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3240 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3241 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3242 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3243 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3244
3245 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3246
3247 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3248 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3249
3250 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3251 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3252
3253 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3254
3255 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3256 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3257
3258 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3259
3260 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3261 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3262 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3263
3264 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3265
3266 * Released nmh-0.03.
3267
3268 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3269 .mh_sequence file existed.
3270
3271 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3272 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3273
3274 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3275 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3276 man page.
3277
3278 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3284
3285 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3286 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3287 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3288
3289 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3290
3291 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3292 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3293 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.

3328 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3329
3330 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3331 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3332 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3333 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3334 rather than in script.
3335
3336 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3337
3338 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3339

3347
3348 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3349 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3350 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3351 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3352 options if enabled.
3353
3354 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3355

3363
3364 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3365
3366 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3367 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3368
3369 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3370
3371 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3372 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3373
3374 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3375
3376 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3377 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3378 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3379 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3380 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3381 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3382
3383 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3384
3385 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3386
3387 * Released nmh-0.01.
3388
3389 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3390 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3391 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3392 have POSIX signals.
3393
3394 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3395
3396 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3397 their man pages.
3398
3399 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3400
3401 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3402 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3403
3404 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3405
3406 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3407 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3408 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3409 script to find_program.
3410
3411 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3412
3413 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3414 speed up -recurse option.
3415
3416 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3417 yet, but it compiles :-)
3418
3419 * Changed default location for install to
3420 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3421 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3422 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3423 level Makefile.
3424
3425 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3426 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3427 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
