Fixed make_bcc_file () to use contents of From: in draft, if draft_from masquerade...
[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
2
3 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
4 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
5 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
6 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
7 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
8 the signature.

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

2506 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2507
2508 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2509
2510 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2511
2512 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2513 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2514
2515 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2516
2517 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2518
2519 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.

2522
2523 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2524

2529 configuration files.
2530
2531 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2532
2533 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2535 * Released nmh-0.17.
2536
2537 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2538
2539 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2540 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2541
2542 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2543 defined.
2544
2545 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2546 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2547
2548 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2549 number of refiled message.
2550
2551 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2552
2553 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2554 for return value of wait().

2562 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2563
2564 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2565
2566 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2567 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2568 deal with binary messages, yet).
2569
2570 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2571
2572 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2573
2574 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2575 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2576 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2577 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2578 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2579 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2580
2581 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2582 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2583
2584 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2585 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2586
2587 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2588 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2589 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2590
2591 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2592
2593 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2594
2595 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2596 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2597 composition files.
2598
2599 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2600 files.
2601
2602 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2603
2604 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2605 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2606 which used unsigned chars by default.
2607
2608 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2609
2610 * Released nmh-0.15.
2611
2612 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2613 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2614
2615 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2616
2617 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2618
2619 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2620 return 0.
2621
2622 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2623 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2624 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2625
2626 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2627 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2628
2629 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2630
2631 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2632 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2633
2634 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2635 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2636 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2637 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2638
2639 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2640 and put in own subroutine.
2641
2642 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2643 and put in own subroutine.
2644
2645 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2646 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2647 refile.c to use new routine.

2653 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2654 seq_getnum.
2655
2656 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2657 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2658 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2659
2660 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2661 no longer used.
2662
2663 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2664 adding message to sequence.
2665
2666 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2667 corresponding file in sbr.
2668
2669 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2670 file in sbr.
2671
2672 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2673
2674 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2675 all selected messages from a sequence.
2676
2677 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2678 selected messages to a sequence.
2679
2680 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2681 and m_seqok.c.

2703 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2704
2705 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2706
2707 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2708 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2709 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2710 environment variable.
2711
2712 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2713 draft folder facility in nmh.
2714
2715 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2716 to fmt_compile.h.
2717

2722 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2723 options.
2724

2726
2727 * Released nmh-0.13.
2728
2729 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2730 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2731 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2732 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2733 to MAXARGS).
2734
2735 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2736 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2737
2738 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2739
2740 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2741 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2742
2743 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2744
2745 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2746 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2747
2748 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2749
2750 * Released nmh-0.12.

2753
2754 * Released nmh-0.11.
2755
2756 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2757
2758 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2759 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2760
2761 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2762 mp->attrstats with macros.
2763
2764 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2765 in msh.c instead.
2766
2767 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2768 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2769
2770 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2771 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2772
2773 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2774 will suppress the display of the message header.
2775
2776 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2777
2778 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2779 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2780
2781 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2782
2783 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2784
2785 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2786
2787 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2788 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2789
2790 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2791 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2792
2793 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2794
2795 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2796
2797 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2798 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2799
2800 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2801 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2816
2817 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2818 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2819
2820 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2821 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2822
2823 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2837 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2838
2839 * Add configure check for killpg.
2840
2841 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
2842 <sys/ioctl.h>.
2843
2844 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2845
2846 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2847
2848 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2849 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2850
2851 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2852
2853 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2854
2855 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2856 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2857
2858 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2859
2860 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2861 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2862
2863 * Released nmh-0.08.
2864
2865 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2866 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2867 locking database itself.
2868
2869 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2870
2871 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2872
2873 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2874 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2875 option.
2876
2877 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2878 rather than mmdf format.
2879
2880 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2881 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2882 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2883 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2884
2885 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2886
2887 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2888
2889 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2890 added to packf.
2891
2892 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2893 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2894 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2895
2896 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2897 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2898 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2899
2900 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2901
2902 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2903 can still easily change this in config.h).
2904
2905 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2906 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2907 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2908
2909 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2910
2911 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2912 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2913
2914 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2915
2916 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2917
2918 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
2919 the suffix.
2920
2921 * Released nmh-0.07.
2922
2923 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2924
2925 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2926 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2927
2928 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2929 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2930 on SCO 5.x.
2931
2932 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2933 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2934
2935 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2936 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2937
2938 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2939
2940 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2941
2942 * Added configure check for tzset.
2943
2944 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2945
2946 * Released nmh-0.06.
2947
2948 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2949 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2950
2951 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2952 many such machines around anymore.
2953
2954 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2955 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2956
2957 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2958 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2959
2960 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2961
2962 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2963 pre-generated version if necessary.
2964
2965 * Released nmh-0.05.
2966
2967 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2968 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2969 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2970 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2971
2972 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2973 be linked in one pass.
2974
2975 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2976
2977 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2978 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2979
2980 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2981
2982 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2983
2984 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2985
2986 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2987 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2988 become the current folder.
2989
2990 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2991
2992 * Released nmh-0.04.
2993
2994 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2995 it.
2996
2997 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2998
2999 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3000 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3001 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3002
3003 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3004
3005 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3006 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3007
3008 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3009
3010 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3011 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3012 using POP.
3013
3014 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3015 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3016
3017 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3018
3019 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3020 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3021 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3022 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3023 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3024 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3025
3026 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3027
3028 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3029 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3030
3031 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3032 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3033
3034 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3035
3036 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3037 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3038
3039 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3040
3041 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3042 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3043 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3044
3045 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3046
3047 * Released nmh-0.03.
3048
3049 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3050 .mh_sequence file existed.
3051
3052 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3053 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3054
3055 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3056 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3057 man page.
3058
3059 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3060
3061 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3062 flist man page.
3063
3064 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3065
3066 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3067 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3068 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3069
3070 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3071
3072 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3073 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3074 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3075
3076 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3077
3078 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3079 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3080
3081 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3082
3083 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3084
3085 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3086 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3087 directory from where the source code is located.
3088
3089 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3090
3091 * Released nmh-0.02.
3092
3093 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3094
3095 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3096 and rcvtty.
3097
3098 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3099
3100 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3101 and sys_nerr directly.
3102
3103 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3104
3105 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3106
3107 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3108
3109 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3110
3111 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3112 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3113 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3114 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3115 rather than in script.
3116
3117 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3118
3119 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3120
3121 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3122 macro defined on Solaris.
3123
3124 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3125
3126 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3127 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3128
3129 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3130 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3131 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3132 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3133 options if enabled.
3134
3135 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3136
3137 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3138 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3139
3140 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3141 correctly found.
3142
3143 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3144
3145 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3146
3147 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3148 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3149
3150 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3151
3152 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3153 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3154
3155 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3156
3157 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3158 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3159 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3160 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3161 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3162 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3163
3164 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3165
3166 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3167
3168 * Released nmh-0.01.
3169
3170 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3171 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3172 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3173 have POSIX signals.
3174
3175 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3176
3177 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3178 their man pages.
3179
3180 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3181
3182 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3183 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3184
3185 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3186
3187 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3188 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3189 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3190 script to find_program.
3191
3192 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3193
3194 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3195 speed up -recurse option.
3196
3197 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3198 yet, but it compiles :-)
3199
3200 * Changed default location for install to
3201 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3202 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3203 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3204 level Makefile.
3205
3206 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3207 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3208 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
