A couple more tweaks to etc/Makefile.in:
[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 Fri May 30 17:51:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2
3 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
4 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
5 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
6 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
7 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
8 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
9 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
10 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
11 getting moved aside).
12
13 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
14 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
15
16 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
17
18 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
19 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
20 of tws.h.
21
22 * Rewrote dparsetime (dtimep.c) to replace the old
23 zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
24 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
25 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
26 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
27 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
28 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
29
30 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
31
32 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
33
34 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
35 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
36 this works on other systems.
37
38 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
39
40 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
41 checks for write failures.
42
43 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
44
45 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
46
47 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
48 is patched in.
49
50 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
51
52 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
53
54 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
55
56 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
57 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
58 a buffer boundary.
59
60 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
61
62 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
63 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
64 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
65 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
66
67 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
68
69 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
70 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
71 place.
72
73 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
74 as well as Makefiles.
75
76 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
77
78 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
79 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
80 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
81 should make maintainability easier.
82
83 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
84 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
85 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
86 whatever you know works.
87
88 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
89
90 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
91 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
92 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
93
94 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
95 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
96 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
97 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
98
99 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
100 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
101 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
102
103 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
104 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
105 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
106 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
107 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
108
109 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
110 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
111 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
112 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
113 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
114 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
115 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
116 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
117 from the BSD version.
118
119 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
120 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
121 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
122
123 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
124 in ruserpass.c also.
125
126 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
127 report:
128
129 This happens on solaris:
130
131 % man mts.conf
132 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
133 No manual entry for mts.conf.
134
135 It is fixed by
136
137 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
138
139 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
140 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
141
142 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
143
144 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
145 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
146 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
147 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
148 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
149 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
150 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
151 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
152 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
153 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
154 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
155
156 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
157 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
158 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
159 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
160 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
161 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
162 out of nowhere.
163
164 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
165 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
166 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
167 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
168 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
169
170 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
171 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
172
173 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
174
175 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
176 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
177 to stdin, such as exmh.
178
179 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
180 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
181 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
182 other files.
183
184 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
185
186 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
187 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
188 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
189 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
190 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
191 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
192 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
193
194 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
195
196 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
197 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
198
199 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
200
201 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
202 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
203
204 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
205
206 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
207 --enable-apop.
208
209 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
210 along with any -host or -user option.
211
212 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
213
214 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
215
216 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
217 process was fresh in my mind.
218
219 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
220
221 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
222 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
223
224 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
225
226 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
227
228 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
229 patch:
230
231 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
232 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
233 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
234 part of the program's name.
235
236 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
237 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
238 to quote.
239
240 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
241
242 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
243 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
244 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
245 single-character format would cause programs using this
246 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
247 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
248 when the format string was one character. This eventually
249 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
250 in the array.
251
252 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
253
254 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
255 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
256 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
257 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
258 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
259 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
260
261 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
262 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
263 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
264 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
265 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
266 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
267 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
268 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
269
270 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
271 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
272 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
273 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
274 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
275 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
276 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
277 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
278 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
279 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
280
281 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
282
283 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
284 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
285
286 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
287 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
288
289 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
290 exit 2
291
292 and:
293
294 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
295
296 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
297 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
298 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
299 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
300
301 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
302 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
303 problem in the routine.
304
305 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
306
307 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
308 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
309
310 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
311 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
312 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
313 spool somehow.
314
315 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
316
317 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
318 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
319 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
320 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
321 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
322 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
323 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
324 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
325 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
326 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
327
328 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
329
330 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
331 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
332 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
333 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
334 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
335 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
336 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
337 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
338 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
339 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
340 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
341 interesting than a duplication of the default.
342
343 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
344 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
345 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
346 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
347 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
348
349 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
350 POP is enabled.
351
352 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
353
354 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
355 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
356 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
357 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
358 here.
359
360 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
361
362 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
363
364 * Applied, after some finessing,
365 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
366
367 Here's a patch that allows you to add
368
369 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
370
371 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
372 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
373 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
374 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
375
376 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
377
378 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
379 forgetting to do so!).
380
381 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
382 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
383 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
384 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
385 arguments to enable all three types.
386
387 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
388 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
389
390 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
391 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
392 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
393 updated copy of mts.conf.
394
395 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
396
397 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
398 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
399 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
400
401 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
402 and
403 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
404
405 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
406 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
407 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
408
409 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
410 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
411 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
412
413 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
414 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
415 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
416
417 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
418
419 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
420
421 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
422
423 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
424
425 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
426 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
427
428 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
429 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
430 certain suffix to run properly.
431
432 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
433 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
434 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
435
436 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
437 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
438 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
439 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
440 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
441 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
442 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
443
444 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
445
446 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
447 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
448 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
449 until some year far in the future).
450
451 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
452
453 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
454
455 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
456 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
457
458 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
459 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
460 corrupted.
461
462 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
463
464 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
465 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
466 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
467 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
468 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
469 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
470
471 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
472
473 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
474
475 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
476 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
477 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
478
479 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
480 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
481 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
482 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
483 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
484 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
485 leads me to:
486
487 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
488 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
489 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
490 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
491 of masquerading individually.
492
493 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
494 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
495 GECOS field delimiters.
496
497 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
498
499 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
500 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
501 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
502 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
503 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
504 and explaining the feature.
505
506 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
507
508 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
509 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
510 so).
511
512 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
513 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
514 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
515
516 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
517 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
518 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
519 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
520
521 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
522 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
523 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
524 anywhere.
525
526 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
527
528 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
529 code to be executed.
530
531 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
532
533 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
534
535 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
536 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
537 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
538 quotes embedded in them.
539
540 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
541
542 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
543 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
544 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
545 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
546 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
547 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
548 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
549 allowed to specify.
550
551 The other theory is that because you can say something like
552 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
553 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
554 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
555 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
556
557 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
558
559 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
560
561 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
562 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
563 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
564 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
565
566 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
567 KPOP server.
568
569 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
570
571 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
572
573 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
574
575 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
576 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
577 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
578
579 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
580 mhn.defaults.sh.
581
582 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
583
584 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
585 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
586 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
587 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
588 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
589 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
590
591 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
592 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
593
594 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
595
596 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
597 page.
598
599 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
600
601 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
602 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
603 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
604 to be setgid.
605
606 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
607 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
608 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
609 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
610 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
611 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
612 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
613 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
614 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
615 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
616 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
617 processing that post has).
618
619 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
620
621 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
622 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
623 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
624 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
625 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
626 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
627 Solaris 2.6).
628
629 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
630
631 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
632
633 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
634
635 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
636
637 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
638 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
639
640 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
641 command-line.
642
643 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
644
645 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
646 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
647 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
648 some development.
649
650 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
651
652 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
653 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
654 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
655 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
656 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
657 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
658
659 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
660
661 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
662
663 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
664
665 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
666 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
667 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
668 caught again. This works for now.
669
670 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
671
672 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
673
674 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
675 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
676
677 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
678
679 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
680 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
681
682 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
683
684 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
685
686 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
687
688 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
689 changes. Both need more cleanup.
690
691 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
692
693 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
694 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
695 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
696 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
697 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
698 multiple purposes.
699
700 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
701
702 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
703 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
704 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
705
706 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
707 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
708 config.guess.
709
710 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
711
712 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
713 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
714 to a directory on another device with more free space.
715
716 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
717
718 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
719 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
720
721 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
722
723 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
724 distributed.
725
726 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
727 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
728
729 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
730 macros, regardless of platform.
731
732 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
733 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
734
735 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
736 with x-conversions=gzip.
737
738 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
739
740 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
741 post.c.
742
743 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
744 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
745 implicit definition of ioctl().
746
747 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
748 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
749 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
750 want to mess with them.
751
752 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
753
754 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
755 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
756
757 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
758 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
759
760 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
761 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
762 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
763
764 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
765 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
766 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
767
768 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
769 function initgroups.
770
771 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
772 function.
773
774 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
775 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
776 to fix warnings.
777
778 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
779 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
780 prevent warnings.
781
782 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
783 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
784 statements).
785
786
787 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
788
789 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
790 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
791 preventing compilation on at least linux.
792
793 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
794 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
795
796 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
797
798 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
799
800 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
801 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
802 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
803 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
804
805 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
806 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
807
808 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
809
810 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
811
812 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
813
814 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
815 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
816
817 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
818
819 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
820 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
821
822 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
823 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
824 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
825 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
826
827 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
828 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
829
830 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
831
832 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
833 substitute it for mktemp if available.
834
835 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
836
837 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
838 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
839 proper #defines.
840
841 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
842
843 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
844
845 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
846
847 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
848 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
849
850 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
851 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
852 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
853
854 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
855 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
856 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
857
858 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
859 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
860 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
861
862 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
863 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
864 <swb@nconnect.net>.
865
866 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
867 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
868
869 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
870 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
871
872 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
873 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
874
875 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
876 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
877 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
878
879 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
880 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
881
882 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
883 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
884 <elleron@servtech.com>.
885
886 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
887 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
888 <rmg@netapp.com>.
889
890 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
891 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
892
893 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
894 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
895 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
896 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
897
898 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
899 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
900
901 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
902
903 * Released nmh-1.0.
904
905 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
906 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
907 would not be changed.
908
909 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
910 one from the Apache web server.
911
912 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
913 (this should have been done a long time ago).
914
915 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
916 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
917 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
918
919 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
920
921 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
922
923 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
924 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
925 verbose printing).
926
927 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
928 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
929 removes a bad race condition.
930
931 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
932 style drop file.
933
934 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
935 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
936 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
937
938 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
939 sequence information.
940
941 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
942 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
943
944 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
945 count.
946
947 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
948 is empty.
949
950 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
951
952 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
953 interpret 034 as octal.
954
955 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
956
957 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
958 mhstore, and mhbuild.
959
960 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
961 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
962
963 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
964 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
965
966 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
967 in the c_cefile structure when building.
968
969 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
970 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
971
972 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
973 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
974 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
975
976 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
977 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
978 and mhshow. Updated man pages
979
980 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
981
982 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
983
984 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
985 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
986 file "mhoutsbr.c".
987
988 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
989
990 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
991 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
992
993 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
994 header field information.
995
996 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
997 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
998
999 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1000 values when parsing a content.
1001
1002 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1003 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1004
1005 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1006 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1007
1008 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1009 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1010
1011 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1012 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1013
1014 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1015
1016 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1017
1018 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1019
1020 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1021
1022 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1023 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1024 read.
1025
1026 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1027 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1028
1029 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1030 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1031 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1032 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1033 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1034 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1035 be setuid/setgid.
1036
1037 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1038
1039 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1040 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1041 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1042
1043 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1044 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1045
1046 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1047
1048 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1049 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1050 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1051 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1052
1053 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1054 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1055 fix).
1056
1057 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1058 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1059 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1060 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1061 arguments.
1062
1063 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1064
1065 * Released nmh-0.27.
1066
1067 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1068 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1069
1070 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1071 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1072 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1073 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1074 with no arguments.
1075
1076 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1077 mhbuild returns an error.
1078
1079 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1080 rename the draft file.
1081
1082 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1083 use a global variable.
1084
1085 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1086 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1087
1088 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1089 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1090
1091 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1092 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1093 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1094
1095 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1096 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1097
1098 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1099 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1100 this new page.
1101
1102 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1103 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1104 viamail program.
1105
1106 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1107 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1108
1109 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1110 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1111 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1112
1113 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1114 to new function output_content_folder.
1115
1116 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1117 new function output_content_file.
1118
1119 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1120 to new function parse_format_string.
1121
1122 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1123 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1124 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1125 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1126
1127 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1128 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1129 message/external file from ftp.
1130
1131 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1132 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1133 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1134
1135 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1136 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1137 mhfree.c.
1138
1139 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1140 file mhshowsbr.c.
1141
1142 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1143 new file mhstoresbr.c
1144
1145 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1146 file mhparse.c.
1147
1148 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1149 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1150
1151 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1152 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1153
1154 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1155 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1156 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1157
1158 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1159
1160 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1161
1162 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1163 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1164 to main().
1165
1166 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1167 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1168
1169 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1170 to mhparse.c).
1171
1172 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1173
1174 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1175
1176 * Released nmh-0.26.
1177
1178 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1179 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1180 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1181 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1182
1183 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1184 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1185 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1186 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1187 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1188
1189 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1190 But it is not on by default.
1191
1192 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1193 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1194
1195 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1196
1197 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1198
1199 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1200
1201 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1202
1203 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1204 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1205
1206 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1207
1208 * Released nmh-0.25.
1209
1210 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1211 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1212 uses the original name of the library.
1213
1214 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1215 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1216 links remaining.
1217
1218 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1219 list_content and list_debug.
1220
1221 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1222
1223 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1224 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1225
1226 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1227
1228 * Released nmh-0.24.
1229
1230 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1231
1232 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1233 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1234
1235 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1236 large sequence line.
1237
1238 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1239
1240 * Released nmh-0.23.
1241
1242 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1243
1244 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1245 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1246 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1247 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1248
1249 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1250 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1251 file h/mhnsbr.h.
1252
1253 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1254
1255 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1256
1257 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1258
1259 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1260 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1261
1262 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1263 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1264
1265 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1266 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1267
1268 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1269 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1270
1271 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1272
1273 * Released nmh-0.22.
1274
1275 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1276 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1277
1278 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1279
1280 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1281 mh-profile(5) man page.
1282
1283 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1284 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1285
1286 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1287
1288 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1289
1290 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1291 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1292
1293 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1294
1295 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1296 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1297 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1298
1299 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1300 source message on the standard input.
1301
1302 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1303
1304 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1305 rather than -rfc934mode.
1306
1307 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1308 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1309 only one message.
1310
1311 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1312 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1313
1314 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1315 it is still needed.
1316
1317 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1318
1319 * Released nmh-0.21.
1320
1321 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1322 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1323
1324 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1325 encoding to use.
1326
1327 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1328 to use for text contents.
1329
1330 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1331
1332 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1333
1334 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1335
1336 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1337
1338 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1339 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1340
1341 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1342 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1343 spaces between encoded word are.
1344
1345 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1346
1347 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1348 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1349
1350 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1351 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1352 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1353
1354 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1355
1356 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1357 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1358
1359 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1360
1361 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1362
1363 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1364 ISO-8859-X character set.
1365
1366 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1367 pager more.
1368
1369 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1370 permissions, not write permissions.
1371
1372 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1373 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1374
1375 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1376 distribution.
1377
1378 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1379
1380 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1381
1382 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1383 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1384
1385 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1386 message contains valid character set.
1387
1388 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1389 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1390
1391 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1392 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1393
1394 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1395 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1396 between an encoded word and normal text.
1397
1398 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1399 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1400
1401 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1402 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1403
1404 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1405 and -help.
1406
1407 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1408 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1409 loops).
1410
1411 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1412 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1413
1414 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1415 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1416
1417 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1418
1419 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1420
1421 * Released nmh-0.20.
1422
1423 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1424
1425 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1426
1427 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1428 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1429 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1430
1431 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1432 and the To: line was missing.
1433
1434 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1435
1436 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1437
1438 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1439
1440 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1441 watch the POP transaction.
1442
1443 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1444 first, and use it if available.
1445
1446 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1447 first, and use it if available.
1448
1449 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1450
1451 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1452
1453 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1454 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1455 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1456 sequence line.
1457
1458 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1459 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1460 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1461
1462 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1463 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1464 lines.
1465
1466 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1467
1468 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1469 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1470
1471 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1472
1473 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1474 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1475
1476 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1477 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1478 message to which you are replying.
1479
1480 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1481 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1482 making group replies.
1483
1484 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1485
1486 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1487
1488 * Released nmh-0.19.
1489
1490 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1491 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1492
1493 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1494 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1495 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1496 to the end of the man page.
1497
1498 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1499 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1500 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1501 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1502 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1503 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1504
1505 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1506 pages.
1507
1508 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1509 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1510 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1511
1512 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1513 the next available number above the message number you wish
1514 to preserve.
1515
1516 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1517 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1518
1519 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1520 file sbr/seq_print.c
1521
1522 * flist will now update the current folder.
1523
1524 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1525 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1526 but now undocumented.
1527
1528 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1529 traversing folders.
1530
1531 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1532 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1533
1534 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1535
1536 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1537 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1538
1539 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1540
1541 * Released nmh-0.18.
1542
1543 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1544 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1545 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1546
1547 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1548 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1549
1550 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1551 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1552 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1553 previous public/private status.
1554
1555 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1556 correctly.
1557
1558 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1559 private sequences).
1560
1561 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1562 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1563 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1564
1565 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1566 take option to determine whether it should get current
1567 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1568 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1569
1570 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1571
1572 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1573 wait for stopped processes.
1574
1575 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1576 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1577
1578 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1579
1580 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1581
1582 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1583 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1584
1585 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1586 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1587
1588 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1589 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1590 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1591 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1592
1593 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1594 status allocation).
1595
1596 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1597 the code.
1598
1599 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1600
1601 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1602 the debugging output.
1603
1604 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1605 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1606
1607 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1608
1609 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1610
1611 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1612 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1613
1614 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1615
1616 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1617 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1618 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1619 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1620 in the given sequence.
1621
1622 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1623 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1624 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1625 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1626 subdirectories of a given directory.
1627
1628 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1629 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1630 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1631
1632 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1633 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1634
1635 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1636
1637 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1638 to 0700 (was 0711).
1639
1640 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1641 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1642 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1643
1644 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1645 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1646 are calculated at runtime.
1647
1648 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1649
1650 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1651
1652 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1653 about checking for global mh.profile.
1654
1655 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1656 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1657 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1658 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1659 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1660 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1661
1662 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1663 adding message to folder itself.
1664
1665 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1666 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1667 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1668 instead of exiting.
1669
1670 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1671 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1672 the error EEXIST.
1673
1674 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1675 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1676 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1677
1678 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1679 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1680
1681 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1682 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1683 code to use it yet).
1684
1685 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1686
1687 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1688
1689 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1690 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1691
1692 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1693 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1694
1695 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1696
1697 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1698 to folder_addmsg.c
1699
1700 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1701
1702 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1703
1704 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1705
1706 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1707
1708 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1709 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1710
1711 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1712
1713 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1714
1715 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1716
1717 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1718
1719 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1720
1721 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1722 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1723
1724 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1725 configuration files.
1726
1727 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1728
1729 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1730
1731 * Released nmh-0.17.
1732
1733 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1734
1735 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1736 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1737
1738 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1739 defined.
1740
1741 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1742 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1743
1744 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1745 number of refiled message.
1746
1747 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1748
1749 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1750 for return value of wait().
1751
1752 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1753
1754 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1755
1756 * Released nmh-0.16.
1757
1758 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1759
1760 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1761
1762 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1763 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1764 deal with binary messages, yet).
1765
1766 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1767
1768 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1769
1770 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1771 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1772 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1773 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1774 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1775 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1776
1777 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1778 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1779
1780 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1781 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1782
1783 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1784 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1785 MH-6.8.4 patch).
1786
1787 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1788
1789 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1790
1791 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1792 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1793 composition files.
1794
1795 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1796 files.
1797
1798 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1799
1800 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1801 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1802 which used unsigned chars by default.
1803
1804 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1805
1806 * Released nmh-0.15.
1807
1808 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1809 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
1810
1811 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1812
1813 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1814
1815 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1816 return 0.
1817
1818 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1819 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1820 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1821
1822 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1823 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1824
1825 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1826
1827 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1828 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1829
1830 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1831 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1832 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1833 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1834
1835 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1836 and put in own subroutine.
1837
1838 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1839 and put in own subroutine.
1840
1841 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1842 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1843 refile.c to use new routine.
1844
1845 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1846
1847 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1848
1849 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1850 seq_getnum.
1851
1852 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1853 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1854 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1855
1856 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1857 no longer used.
1858
1859 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1860 adding message to sequence.
1861
1862 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1863 corresponding file in sbr.
1864
1865 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1866 file in sbr.
1867
1868 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1869
1870 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1871 all selected messages from a sequence.
1872
1873 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1874 selected messages to a sequence.
1875
1876 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1877 and m_seqok.c.
1878
1879 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1880
1881 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1882 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1883
1884 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1885
1886 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
1887 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
1888
1889 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1890
1891 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
1892 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
1893
1894 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1895
1896 * Released nmh-0.14.
1897
1898 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
1899 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1900
1901 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1902
1903 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1904 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1905 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1906 environment variable.
1907
1908 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1909 draft folder facility in nmh.
1910
1911 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
1912 to fmt_compile.h.
1913
1914 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
1915 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
1916 fmt_addr.c.
1917
1918 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1919 options.
1920
1921 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1922
1923 * Released nmh-0.13.
1924
1925 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1926 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1927 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1928 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1929 to MAXARGS).
1930
1931 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1932 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1933
1934 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1935
1936 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1937 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1938
1939 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1940
1941 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1942 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
1943
1944 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1945
1946 * Released nmh-0.12.
1947
1948 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
1949
1950 * Released nmh-0.11.
1951
1952 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1953
1954 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1955 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1956
1957 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1958 mp->attrstats with macros.
1959
1960 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1961 in msh.c instead.
1962
1963 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1964 to hide dd->dd_fd.
1965
1966 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1967 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1968
1969 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1970 will suppress the display of the message header.
1971
1972 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1973
1974 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1975 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1976
1977 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1978
1979 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1980
1981 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1982
1983 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1984 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1985
1986 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1987 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1988
1989 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1990
1991 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1992
1993 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1994 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1995
1996 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1997 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
1998

2049 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2050
2051 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted

2055
2056 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2057 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".

2060
2061 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2062 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of

2064
2065 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2066
2067 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2068

2074 rather than mmdf format.
2075
2076 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it

2090 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2091
2092 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2093 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2094 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.

2096 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2097
2098 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2099 can still easily change this in config.h).
2100
2101 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2102 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2103 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.

2122 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2123
2124 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2125 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2126 on SCO 5.x.
2127
2128 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2129 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2130

2142 * Released nmh-0.06.
2143
2144 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2145 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2146
2147 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2148 many such machines around anymore.

2159 pre-generated version if necessary.
2160
2161 * Released nmh-0.05.
2162
2163 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2164 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2165 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2166 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2167
2168 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2169 be linked in one pass.
2170
2171 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2172
2173 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,

2182 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2183 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2184 become the current folder.
2185
2186 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2194
2195 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2196 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2197 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2198
2199 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2200
2201 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2202 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2203
2204 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2205
2206 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2207 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2208 using POP.
2209
2210 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2211 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2212
2213 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2214
2215 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2216 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2217 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2218 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2219 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2220 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2221
2222 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2223
2224 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2225 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2226
2227 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2228 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2229
2230 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2231
2232 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2233 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2234
2235 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2236
2237 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2238 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2239 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2240
2241 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2242
2243 * Released nmh-0.03.
2244
2245 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2246 .mh_sequence file existed.
2247
2248 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2249 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2250
2251 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2252 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2253 man page.
2254
2255 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2256

2258 flist man page.
2259
2260 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2261
2262 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2263 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2264 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2265
2266 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2267
2268 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2269 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2270 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2271
2272 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2273
2274 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL

2276
2277 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2278
2279 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2280

2282 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2283 directory from where the source code is located.
2284

2305 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2306
2307 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2308 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2309 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2310 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2311 rather than in script.
2312
2313 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2314
2315 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2316
2317 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2318 macro defined on Solaris.
2319
2320 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2321

2323 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2324
2325 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2326 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2327 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2328 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2329 options if enabled.
2330
2331 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2332
2333 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2334 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2335
2336 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2337 correctly found.
2338
2339 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2340
2341 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2342
2343 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included

2347
2348 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2349 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2350
2351 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2352
2353 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2354 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2355 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2356 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2357 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2358 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2359
2360 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2361
2362 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2363
2364 * Released nmh-0.01.
2365
2366 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2367 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2368 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2369 have POSIX signals.
2370
2371 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2372

2377
2378 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2379 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2380
2381 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2382
2383 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2384 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2385 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2386 script to find_program.
2387
2388 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2389
2390 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2391 speed up -recurse option.
2392
2393 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2394 yet, but it compiles :-)
2395
2396 * Changed default location for install to
2397 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2398 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2399 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2400 level Makefile.
2401
2402 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2403 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2404 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
