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

2543 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2544 configuration files.
2545
2546 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2547
2548 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2549
2550 * Released nmh-0.17.
2551
2552 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2553
2554 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2555 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2556
2557 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2558 defined.
2559
2560 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2561 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2562
2563 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2564 number of refiled message.
2565
2566 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2567
2568 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2569 for return value of wait().
2570
2571 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2572
2573 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2577 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2578
2579 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2580
2581 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2582 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2583 deal with binary messages, yet).
2584
2585 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2586
2587 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2588
2589 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2590 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2591 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2592 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2593 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2594 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2595
2596 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2597 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2598
2599 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2600 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2601
2602 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2603 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2604 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2605
2606 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2607
2608 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2609
2610 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2611 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2612 composition files.
2613
2614 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2615 files.
2616
2617 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2618
2619 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2620 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2621 which used unsigned chars by default.
2622
2623 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2624
2625 * Released nmh-0.15.
2626
2627 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2628 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2629
2630 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2631
2632 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2633
2634 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2635 return 0.
2636
2637 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2638 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2639 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2640
2641 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2642 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2643
2644 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2645
2646 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2647 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2648
2649 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2650 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2651 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2652 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2653
2654 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2655 and put in own subroutine.
2656
2657 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2658 and put in own subroutine.
2659
2660 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2661 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2662 refile.c to use new routine.
2663

2668 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2669 seq_getnum.
2670
2671 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2672 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2673 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2674
2675 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2676 no longer used.
2677
2678 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2679 adding message to sequence.
2680
2681 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2682 corresponding file in sbr.
2683
2684 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2685 file in sbr.
2686
2687 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2688
2689 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2690 all selected messages from a sequence.
2691
2692 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2693 selected messages to a sequence.
2694
2695 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2696 and m_seqok.c.

2707
2708 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2709
2710 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2711 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2712
2713 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2714
2715 * Released nmh-0.14.
2716
2717 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2718 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2719
2720 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2721
2722 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2723 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2724 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2725 environment variable.
2726
2727 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2728 draft folder facility in nmh.
2729
2730 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2731 to fmt_compile.h.
2732
2733 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2734 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2735 fmt_addr.c.
2736
2737 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2738 options.
2739
2740 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2741
2742 * Released nmh-0.13.
2743
2744 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2745 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2746 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2747 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2748 to MAXARGS).
2749
2750 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2751 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2752
2753 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2754
2755 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2756 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2757
2758 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2759
2760 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2761 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2762
2763 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2764
2765 * Released nmh-0.12.

2767 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2768
2769 * Released nmh-0.11.
2770
2771 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2772
2773 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2774 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2775
2776 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2777 mp->attrstats with macros.
2778
2779 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2780 in msh.c instead.
2781
2782 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2783 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2784
2785 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2786 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2787
2788 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2789 will suppress the display of the message header.
2790
2791 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2792
2793 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2794 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2795
2796 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2797
2798 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2799
2800 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2801
2802 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2803 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2804
2805 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2806 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2807
2808 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2809
2810 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2811
2812 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2813 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2814
2815 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2816 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2817
2818 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2819

2825 by default.
2826
2827 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2828
2829 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2830 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2831
2832 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2833 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2834
2835 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2836 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2837
2838 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2839
2840 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2841 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2842
2843 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2844
2845 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2846 of missing tabs in regex.

2852 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2853
2854 * Add configure check for killpg.
2855
2856 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
2857 <sys/ioctl.h>.
2858
2859 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2860
2861 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2862
2863 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2864 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2865
2866 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2867
2868 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2869
2870 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2871 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2872
2873 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2874
2875 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2876 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2877
2878 * Released nmh-0.08.
2879
2880 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2881 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2882 locking database itself.
2883
2884 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2885
2886 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2887
2888 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2889 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2890 option.
2891
2892 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2893 rather than mmdf format.
2894
2895 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2896 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2897 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2898 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2899
2900 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2901
2902 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2903
2904 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2905 added to packf.
2906
2907 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2908 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2909 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2910
2911 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2912 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2913 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2914
2915 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2916
2917 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2918 can still easily change this in config.h).
2919
2920 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2921 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2922 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2923
2924 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2925
2926 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2927 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2928
2929 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2930
2931 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2932
2933 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
2934 the suffix.
2935
2936 * Released nmh-0.07.
2937
2938 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2939
2940 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2941 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2942
2943 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2944 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2945 on SCO 5.x.
2946
2947 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2948 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2949
2950 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2951 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2952
2953 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2954
2955 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2956
2957 * Added configure check for tzset.
2958
2959 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2960
2961 * Released nmh-0.06.
2962
2963 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2964 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2965
2966 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2967 many such machines around anymore.
2968
2969 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2970 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2971
2972 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2973 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2974
2975 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2976
2977 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2978 pre-generated version if necessary.
2979
2980 * Released nmh-0.05.
2981
2982 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2983 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2984 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2985 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2986
2987 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2988 be linked in one pass.
2989
2990 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2991
2992 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2993 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2994
2995 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2996
2997 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2998
2999 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3000
3001 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3002 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3003 become the current folder.
3004
3005 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3006
3007 * Released nmh-0.04.
3008
3009 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3010 it.
3011
3012 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3013
3014 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3015 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3016 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3017
3018 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3019
3020 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3021 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3022
3023 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3024
3025 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3026 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3027 using POP.
3028
3029 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3030 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3031
3032 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3033
3034 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3035 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3036 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3037 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3038 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3039 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3040
3041 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3042
3043 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3044 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3045
3046 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3047 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3048
3049 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3050
3051 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3052 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3053
3054 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3055
3056 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3057 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3058 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3059
3060 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3061
3062 * Released nmh-0.03.
3063
3064 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3065 .mh_sequence file existed.
3066
3067 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3068 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3069
3070 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3071 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3072 man page.
3073
3074 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3075
3076 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3077 flist man page.
3078
3079 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3080
3081 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3082 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3083 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3084
3085 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3086
3087 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3088 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3089 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3090
3091 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3092
3093 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3094 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3095
3096 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3097
3098 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3099
3100 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3101 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3102 directory from where the source code is located.
3103
3104 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3105
3106 * Released nmh-0.02.
3107
3108 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3109
3110 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3111 and rcvtty.
3112
3113 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3114
3115 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3116 and sys_nerr directly.
3117
3118 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3119
3120 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3121
3122 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3123
3124 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3125
3126 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3127 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3128 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3129 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3130 rather than in script.
3131
3132 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3133
3134 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3135
3136 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3137 macro defined on Solaris.
3138
3139 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3140
3141 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3142 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3143
3144 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3145 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3146 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3147 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3148 options if enabled.
3149
3150 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3151
3152 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3153 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3154
3155 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3156 correctly found.
3157
3158 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3159
3160 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3161
3162 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3163 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3164
3165 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3166
3167 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3168 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3169
3170 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3171
3172 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3173 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3174 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3175 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3176 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3177 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3178
3179 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3180
3181 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3182
3183 * Released nmh-0.01.
3184
3185 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3186 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3187 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3188 have POSIX signals.
3189
3190 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3191
3192 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3193 their man pages.
3194
3195 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3196
3197 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3198 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3199
3200 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3201
3202 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3203 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3204 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3205 script to find_program.
3206
3207 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3208
3209 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3210 speed up -recurse option.
3211
3212 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3213 yet, but it compiles :-)
3214
3215 * Changed default location for install to
3216 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3217 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3218 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3219 level Makefile.
3220
3221 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3222 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3223 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
