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

2493
2494 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2495
2496 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2497
2498 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2499 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2500
2501 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2502
2503 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2504
2505 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.

2508
2509 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2510

2515 configuration files.
2516
2517 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2518
2519 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2520
2521 * Released nmh-0.17.
2522
2523 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2524
2525 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2526 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2527
2528 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2529 defined.
2530
2531 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2532 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2533
2534 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2535 number of refiled message.
2536
2537 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2538
2539 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2540 for return value of wait().

2548 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2549
2550 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2551
2552 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2553 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2554 deal with binary messages, yet).
2555
2556 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2557
2558 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2559
2560 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2561 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2562 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2563 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2564 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2565 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2566
2567 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2568 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2569
2570 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2571 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2572
2573 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2574 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2575 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2576
2577 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2578
2579 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2580
2581 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2582 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2583 composition files.
2584
2585 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2586 files.
2587
2588 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2589
2590 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2591 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2592 which used unsigned chars by default.
2593
2594 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2595
2596 * Released nmh-0.15.
2597
2598 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2599 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2600
2601 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2602
2603 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2604
2605 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2606 return 0.
2607
2608 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2609 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2610 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2611
2612 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2613 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2614
2615 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2616
2617 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2618 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2619
2620 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2621 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2622 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2623 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2624
2625 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2626 and put in own subroutine.
2627
2628 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2629 and put in own subroutine.
2630
2631 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2632 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2633 refile.c to use new routine.
2634

2639 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2640 seq_getnum.
2641
2642 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2643 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2644 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2645
2646 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2647 no longer used.
2648
2649 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2650 adding message to sequence.
2651
2652 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2653 corresponding file in sbr.
2654
2655 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2656 file in sbr.
2657
2658 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2659
2660 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2661 all selected messages from a sequence.
2662
2663 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2664 selected messages to a sequence.
2665
2666 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2667 and m_seqok.c.

2673
2674 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2675
2676 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2677 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2678
2679 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2680
2681 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2682 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2683
2684 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2685
2686 * Released nmh-0.14.
2687
2688 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2689 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2690
2691 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2692
2693 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2694 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2695 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2696 environment variable.
2697
2698 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2699 draft folder facility in nmh.
2700
2701 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2702 to fmt_compile.h.
2703
2704 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2705 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2706 fmt_addr.c.
2707
2708 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2709 options.
2710
2711 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2712
2713 * Released nmh-0.13.
2714
2715 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2716 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2717 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2718 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2719 to MAXARGS).
2720
2721 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2722 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2723
2724 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2725
2726 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2727 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2728
2729 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2730
2731 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2732 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2733
2734 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2735
2736 * Released nmh-0.12.
2737
2738 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2739
2740 * Released nmh-0.11.
2741
2742 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2743
2744 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2745 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2746
2747 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2748 mp->attrstats with macros.
2749
2750 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2751 in msh.c instead.
2752
2753 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2754 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2755
2756 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2757 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2758
2759 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2760 will suppress the display of the message header.
2761
2762 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2763
2764 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2765 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2766
2767 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2768
2769 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2770
2771 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2772
2773 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2774 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2775
2776 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2777 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2778
2779 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2780
2781 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2782
2783 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2784 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2785
2786 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2787 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2788
2789 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2790

2796 by default.
2797
2798 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2799
2800 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2801 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2802
2803 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2804 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2805
2806 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2807 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2808
2809 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2812 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2813
2814 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2815
2816 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2817 of missing tabs in regex.
2818

2823 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2824
2825 * Add configure check for killpg.
2826
2827 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
2828 <sys/ioctl.h>.
2829
2830 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2831
2832 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2833
2834 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2835 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2836
2837 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2838
2839 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2840
2841 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2842 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2843
2844 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2845
2846 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2847 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2848
2849 * Released nmh-0.08.
2850
2851 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2852 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2853 locking database itself.
2854
2855 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2856
2857 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2858
2859 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2860 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2861 option.
2862
2863 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2864 rather than mmdf format.
2865
2866 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2867 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2868 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2869 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2870
2871 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2872
2873 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2874
2875 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2876 added to packf.
2877
2878 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2879 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2880 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2881
2882 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2883 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2884 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2885
2886 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2887
2888 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2889 can still easily change this in config.h).
2890
2891 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2892 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2893 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2894
2895 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2896
2897 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2898 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2899
2900 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2901
2902 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2903
2904 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
2905 the suffix.
2906
2907 * Released nmh-0.07.
2908
2909 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2910
2911 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2912 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2913
2914 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2915 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2916 on SCO 5.x.
2917
2918 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2919 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2920
2921 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2922 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2923
2924 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2925
2926 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2927
2928 * Added configure check for tzset.
2929

2931
2932 * Released nmh-0.06.
2933
2934 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2935 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2936
2937 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2938 many such machines around anymore.
2939
2940 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2941 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2942
2943 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2944 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2945
2946 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2949 pre-generated version if necessary.
2950
2951 * Released nmh-0.05.
2952
2953 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2954 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2955 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2956 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2957
2958 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2959 be linked in one pass.
2960
2961 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2962
2963 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2964 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2965
2966 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2967
2968 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2969
2970 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2971
2972 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2973 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2974 become the current folder.
2975
2976 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2977
2978 * Released nmh-0.04.
2979
2980 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2981 it.
2982
2983 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2984
2985 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2986 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2987 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2988
2989 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2990
2991 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2992 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2993
2994 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2995
2996 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2997 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2998 using POP.
2999
3000 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3001 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3002
3003 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3004
3005 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3006 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3007 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3008 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3009 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3010 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3011
3012 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3013
3014 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3015 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3016
3017 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3018 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3019
3020 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3021
3022 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3023 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3024
3025 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3026
3027 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3028 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3029 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3030
3031 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3032
3033 * Released nmh-0.03.
3034
3035 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3036 .mh_sequence file existed.
3037
3038 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3039 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3040
3041 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3042 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3043 man page.
3044
3045 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3046
3047 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3048 flist man page.
3049
3050 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3051
3052 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3053 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3054 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3055
3056 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3057
3058 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3059 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3060 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3061
3062 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3063
3064 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3065 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3066
3067 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3068
3069 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3070
3071 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3072 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3073 directory from where the source code is located.
3074
3075 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3076
3077 * Released nmh-0.02.
3078
3079 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3080
3081 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3082 and rcvtty.
3083
3084 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3085
3086 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3087 and sys_nerr directly.
3088
3089 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3090
3091 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3092
3093 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3094
3095 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3096
3097 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3098 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3099 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3100 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3101 rather than in script.
3102
3103 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3104
3105 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3106
3107 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3108 macro defined on Solaris.
3109
3110 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3111
3112 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3113 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3114
3115 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3116 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3117 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3118 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3119 options if enabled.
3120
3121 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3122
3123 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3124 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3125
3126 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3127 correctly found.
3128
3129 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3130
3131 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3132
3133 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3134 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3135
3136 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3137
3138 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3139 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3140
3141 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3142
3143 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3144 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3145 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3146 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3147 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3148 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3149
3150 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3151
3152 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3153
3154 * Released nmh-0.01.
3155
3156 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3157 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3158 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3159 have POSIX signals.
3160
3161 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3162
3163 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3164 their man pages.
3165
3166 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3167
3168 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3169 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3170
3171 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3172
3173 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3174 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3175 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3176 script to find_program.
3177
3178 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3179
3180 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3181 speed up -recurse option.
3182
3183 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3184 yet, but it compiles :-)
3185
3186 * Changed default location for install to
3187 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3188 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3189 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3190 level Makefile.
3191
3192 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3193 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3194 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
