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

2452
2453 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.

2455 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2456 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2457
2458 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2459 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2460
2461 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2462
2463 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2464 to folder_addmsg.c
2465
2466 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2471
2472 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2473

2491 configuration files.
2492
2493 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2494
2495 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2497 * Released nmh-0.17.
2498
2499 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2500
2501 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2502 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2503
2504 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2505 defined.
2506
2507 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2508 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2509
2510 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2511 number of refiled message.
2512
2513 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.

2524 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2525
2526 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2527
2528 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2529 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2530 deal with binary messages, yet).
2531
2532 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2533
2534 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2535
2536 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2537 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2538 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2539 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2540 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2541 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2542
2543 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2544 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2545
2546 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2547 From MH-6.8.4 patch.

2552
2553 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2554
2555 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2556

2558 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2559 composition files.
2560
2561 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2562 files.
2563
2564 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2565
2566 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2567 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2568 which used unsigned chars by default.
2569
2570 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2571
2572 * Released nmh-0.15.
2573
2574 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2575 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2576
2577 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2578

2580
2581 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2582 return 0.
2583
2584 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2585 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2586 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2587
2588 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2589 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2590
2591 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2592
2593 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2594 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2595
2596 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2597 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2598 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2599 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2600
2601 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2602 and put in own subroutine.
2603
2604 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2605 and put in own subroutine.
2606
2607 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2608 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2609 refile.c to use new routine.
2610

2615 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2616 seq_getnum.
2617
2618 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2619 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2620 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2621
2622 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2623 no longer used.
2624
2625 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2626 adding message to sequence.
2627
2628 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2629 corresponding file in sbr.
2630
2631 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2632 file in sbr.
2633
2634 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2635
2636 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2637 all selected messages from a sequence.
2638
2639 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2640 selected messages to a sequence.
2641
2642 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2643 and m_seqok.c.

2665 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2666
2667 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2668
2669 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2670 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2671 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2672 environment variable.
2673
2674 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2675 draft folder facility in nmh.
2676
2677 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2678 to fmt_compile.h.
2679
2680 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2681 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2682 fmt_addr.c.
2683
2684 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2685 options.
2686
2687 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2688
2689 * Released nmh-0.13.
2690
2691 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2692 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2693 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2694 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2695 to MAXARGS).
2696
2697 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2698 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2699
2700 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2701
2702 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2703 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2704
2705 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2706
2707 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2708 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2709
2710 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2711
2712 * Released nmh-0.12.

2717
2718 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2719
2720 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2721 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2722
2723 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2724 mp->attrstats with macros.
2725
2726 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2727 in msh.c instead.
2728
2729 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2730 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2731
2732 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2733 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2734
2735 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2736 will suppress the display of the message header.
2737
2738 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2739
2740 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2741 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2742
2743 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2744
2745 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.

2747 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2748
2749 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2750 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2751
2752 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2753 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2754
2755 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2756
2757 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2758
2759 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2760 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2761
2762 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2763 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2772 by default.
2773
2774 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2775
2776 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.

2779 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2780 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2781
2782 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2783 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2784
2785 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2805
2806 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2807
2808 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2809
2810 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2811 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2812
2813 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2814
2815 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2816
2817 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2818 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2819
2820 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2821
2822 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2823 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2824
2825 * Released nmh-0.08.
2826
2827 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2828 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2829 locking database itself.
2830
2831 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2832
2833 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2834
2835 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2836 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2837 option.
2838
2839 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2840 rather than mmdf format.
2841
2842 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2843 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2844 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2845 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2846
2847 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2848
2849 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2850
2851 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2852 added to packf.
2853
2854 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2855 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2856 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2857
2858 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2859 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2860 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2861
2862 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2863
2864 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2865 can still easily change this in config.h).
2866
2867 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2868 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2869 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2870
2871 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2872
2873 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2874 than tzset and external timezone variable.

2887 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2888 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2889
2890 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2891 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2892 on SCO 5.x.
2893
2894 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2895 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2896
2897 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2898 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2899
2900 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2901
2902 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2903

2908 * Released nmh-0.06.
2909
2910 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2911 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2912
2913 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2914 many such machines around anymore.
2915
2916 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2917 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2918
2919 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2920 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2921
2922 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2923
2924 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2925 pre-generated version if necessary.
2926
2927 * Released nmh-0.05.
2928
2929 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2930 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2931 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2932 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2933
2934 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2935 be linked in one pass.
2936
2937 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2938
2939 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2940 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2941
2942 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2943
2944 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2945
2946 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2947
2948 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2949 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2950 become the current folder.
2951
2952 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2953
2954 * Released nmh-0.04.
2955
2956 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2957 it.
2958
2959 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2960
2961 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2962 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2963 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2964
2965 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2966
2967 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2968 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2969
2970 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2971
2972 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2973 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2974 using POP.
2975
2976 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2977 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2978
2979 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2980
2981 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2982 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2983 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2984 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2985 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2986 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2987
2988 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2989
2990 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2991 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2992
2993 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2994 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2995
2996 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2997
2998 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2999 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3000
3001 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3002
3003 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3004 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3005 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3006
3007 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3008
3009 * Released nmh-0.03.
3010
3011 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3012 .mh_sequence file existed.
3013
3014 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3015 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3016
3017 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3018 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3019 man page.
3020
3021 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3022
3023 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3024 flist man page.
3025
3026 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3027
3028 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3029 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3030 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3031
3032 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3033
3034 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3035 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3036 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3037
3038 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3039
3040 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3041 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3042
3043 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3044
3045 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3046
3047 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3048 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3049 directory from where the source code is located.
3050
3051 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3052
3053 * Released nmh-0.02.
3054
3055 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3056
3057 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3058 and rcvtty.
3059
3060 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3061
3062 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3063 and sys_nerr directly.
3064
3065 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3066
3067 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3068
3069 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3070
3071 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3072
3073 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3074 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3075 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3076 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3077 rather than in script.
3078
3079 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3080
3081 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3082
3083 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3084 macro defined on Solaris.
3085
3086 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3087
3088 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3089 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3090
3091 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3092 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3093 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3094 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3095 options if enabled.
3096
3097 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3098
3099 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3100 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3101
3102 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3103 correctly found.
3104
3105 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3106
3107 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3108
3109 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3110 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3111
3112 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3113
3114 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3115 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3116
3117 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3118
3119 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3120 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3121 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3122 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3123 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3124 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3125
3126 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3127
3128 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3129
3130 * Released nmh-0.01.
3131
3132 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3133 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3134 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3135 have POSIX signals.
3136
3137 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3138
3139 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3140 their man pages.
3141
3142 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3143
3144 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3145 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3146
3147 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3148
3149 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3150 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3151 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3152 script to find_program.
3153
3154 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3155
3156 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3157 speed up -recurse option.
3158
3159 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3160 yet, but it compiles :-)
3161
3162 * Changed default location for install to
3163 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3164 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3165 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3166 level Makefile.
3167
3168 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3169 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3170 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
