3 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
4 inc sgid.
5
6 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
7
8 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
9 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
10 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
11 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
12 have Content-Disposition.
13
14 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
15
16 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
17 if it isn't valid.
18
19 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
20
21 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
22 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
23
24 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
25
26 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
27 encoded block is empty
28
29 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
30
31 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
32 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
33 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
34 do this.
35
36 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
37
38 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
39 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
40 dtime() prototype.
41
42 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
43
44 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
45 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
46 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
47 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
48 description.
49
50 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
51 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
52
53 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
54
55 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
56 function num_digits into utils.c
57
58 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
59
60 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
61 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
62 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
63
64 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
65
66 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
67 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
68 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
69 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
70 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
71 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
72 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
73 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
74
75 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
76
77 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
78 Content-Disposition header.
79
80 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
81
82 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
83 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
84 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
85 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
86 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
87 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
88 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
89 users to easily accomodate that by adding
90 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
91
92 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
93
94 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
95 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
96
97 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
98
99 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
100
101 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
102 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
103
104 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
105 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
106
107 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
108
109 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
110 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
111 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
112 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
113 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
114 the signature.
115
116 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
117
118 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
119 widths, restoring right justification feature
120
121 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
122
123 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
124 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
125 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
126
127 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
128 chars fit
129
130 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
131
132 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
133 handling multi column characters.
134
135 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
136
137 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
138
139 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
140
141 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
142 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
143 has been removed.
144
145 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
146
147 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
148
149 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
150
151 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
152 calling realloc.
153
154 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
155
156 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
157 calling malloc.
158
159 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
160
161 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
162 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
163 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
164 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
165
166 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
167
168 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
169 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
170 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
171 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
172 where configure's autodetection fails.
173
174 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
175
176 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
177 configure script change.
178
179 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
180
181 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
182 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
183 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
184 systems with libdb4.
185
186 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
187
188 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
189 the context is only read once.
190
191 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
192
193 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
194 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
195
196 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
197
198 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
199 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
200
201 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
202 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
203 the first one.
204
205 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
206 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
207 annotated messages.
208
209 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
210
211 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
212 vi isn't found during build.
213
214 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
215
216 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
217 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
218
219 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
220 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
221 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
222
223 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
224
225 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
226 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
227
228 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
229 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
230 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
231 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
232 very slow).
233
234 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
235 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
236 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
237
238 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
239 entry in the context file.
240
241 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
242
243 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
244 problems on some systems
245
246 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
247 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
248
249 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
250
251 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
252 sendmail isn't found during build.
253
254 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
255
256 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
257
258 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
259
260 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
261 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
262
263 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
264 references to the web page and mailing list locations
265
266 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
267 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
268
269 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
270 autoconf macros
271
272 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
273
274 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
275 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
276 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
277
278 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
279 was configured with --enable-apop.
280
281 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
282 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
283 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
284
285 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
286 new versions of flex.
287
288 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
289 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
290 doesn't guess wrongly.
291
292 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
293
294 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
295 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
296
297 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
298 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
299
300 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
301 files with numbers as names
302
303 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
304
305 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
306
307 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
308
309 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
310
311 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
312 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
313
314 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
315
316 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
317 vfork on Linux
318
319 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
320 test/report error writing to stdout
321
322 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
323
324 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
325
326 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
327 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
328 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
329
330 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
331 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
332 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
333
334 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
335
336 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
337 character set used by the current locale
338
339 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
340 message's filename overflows an int when converted
341
342 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
343 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
344
345 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
346
347 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
348 the terminal
349
350 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
351
352 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
353 from Michael Richardson.
354
355 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
356 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
357
358 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
359
360 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
361 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
362
363 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
364
365 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
366 find sub-parts of the specified part
367
368 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
369
370 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
371 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
372 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
373 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
374 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
375 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
376 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
377 that path.
378
379 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
380
381 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
382 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
383 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
384 renamed.
385
386 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
387 refiling with -src option.
388
389 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
390
391 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
392
393 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
394
395 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
396 mailpath being overwritten.
397
398 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
399
400 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
401 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
402 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
403 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
404 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
405 reinitializes the tmp file string.
406
407 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
408 if a format string was read from the profile.
409
410 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
411 path for the external hook.
412
413 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
414
415 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
416 another location for ndbm.
417
418 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
419
420 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
421 independent.
422 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
423 to empty folder.
424 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
425
426 Debian Bug#
427 136976 - Handle binary content messages
428 143427 - mh-format.man typo
429 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
430 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
431 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
432 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
433 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
434 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
435 181867 - typo for nmh.man
436
437 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
438
439 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
440 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
441 contitional code which will result in cached data to
442 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
443 and parse on the first use.
444 * Remove some unused flag bits.
445
446 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
447
448 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
449 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
450 * Fixes for bugs
451 #578 - repl leaks umask
452 #1393 - sortm core dumps
453 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
454 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
455 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
456 RFC2822 compliant
457 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
458 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
459
460 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
461
462 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
463 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
464
465 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
466
467 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
468 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
469 to docs/README.about.
470
471 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
472
473 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
474
475 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
476 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
477 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
478 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
479 enough).
480
481 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
482
483 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
484 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
485 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
486 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
487 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
488 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
489 as well.
490
491 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
492 summary configure prints out.
493
494 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
495 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
496 subjectively more readable) format.
497
498 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
499
500 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
501 all nmh commands.
502
503 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
504
505 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
506 19xx when it's not necessary.
507
508 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
509
510 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
511 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
512 roff mark-up.
513
514 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
515 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
516 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
517 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
518 the man pages correctly.
519
520 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
521
522 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
523
524 * Finished manpages ali-prev
525
526 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
527 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
528 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
529 structure.
530
531 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
532 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
533 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
534 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
535
536 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
537
538 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
539 the formatting rules I've been using.
540
541 * Finished ali-inc.
542
543 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
544
545 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
546 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
547 used in the manpages.
548
549 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
550 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
551 read in the contents of the file as the variable
552 $DATE.
553
554 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
555 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
556 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
557 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
558 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
559 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
560 bold flags and italicized parameters.
561
562 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
563
564 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
565 --with-locking option.
566
567 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
568 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
569 information was not being communicated to the
570 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
571 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
572 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
573 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
574 undefined symbols problems.
575
576 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
577 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
578 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
579 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
580 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
581 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
582 for a genuine krb4 installation.
583
584 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
585
586 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
587 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
588
589 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
590
591 * Made a new ./configure option called
592 "--with-locking" that allows the file
593 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
594 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
595
596 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
597 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
598 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
599 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
600 the user that these are the valid options, and
601 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
602 descriptive enough.
603
604 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
605
606 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
607 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
608 committed to supporting flex only, since
609 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
610 string, as well as other problems documented
611 below and on nmh-workers.
612
613 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
614 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
615 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
616 the flag.
617
618 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
619 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
620
621 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
622
623 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
624 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
625 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
626
627 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
628
629 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
630 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
631
632 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
633
634 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
635 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
636 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
637 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
638 couldn't correctly identify them.
639
640 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
641
642 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
643 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
644 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
645 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
646 not depending on an external archive.
647
648 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
649 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
650 mts/generic is no longer built.
651
652 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
653
654 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
655 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
656 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
657 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
658 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
659 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
660 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
661 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
662
663 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
664
665 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
666 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
667 correct.
668
669 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
670
671 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
672 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
673 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
674 now finally mts.
675
676 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
677 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
678 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
679 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
680
681 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
682 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
683 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
684 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
685 merged into the smtp code).
686
687 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
688 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
689 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
690 of it for us.
691
692 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
693 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
694 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
695 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
696 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
697 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
698 in the appropriate Makefile.in
699
700 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
701
702 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
703 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
704 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
705 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
706 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
707 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
708 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
709 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
710 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
711 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
712 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
713
714 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
715
716 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
717 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
718 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
719 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
720 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
721 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
722 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
723 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
724 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
725
726 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
727
728 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
729 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
730 able to access them.
731
732 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
733
734 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
735 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
736
737 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
738
739 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
740 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
741 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
742 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
743
744 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
745
746 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
747 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
748 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
749 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
750 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
751
752 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
753 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
754
755 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
756
757 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
758
759 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
760 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
761 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
762 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
763
764 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
765 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
766 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
767 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
768
769 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
770 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
771 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
772 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
773
774 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
775 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
776 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
777
778 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
779
780 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
781 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
782 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
783 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
784 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
785 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
786 my users.
787
788 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
789 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
790
791 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
792 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
793
794 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
795
796 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
797
798 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
799
800 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
801 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
802 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
803 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
804
805 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
806
807 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
808 be easily changed from "," to "#".
809
810 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
811
812 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
813
814 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
815 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
816 README.developers.
817
818 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
819
820 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
821 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
822 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
823 but not for the subsequent data stream.
824
825 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
826
827 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
828 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
829 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
830 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
831 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
832
833 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
834
835 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
836 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
837
838 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
839 cat, also define lorder as echo.
840
841 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
842
843 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
844
845 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
846 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
847 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
848
849 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
850
851 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
852 #if 0 block).
853
854 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
855 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
856
857 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
858
859 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
860 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
861
862 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
863
864 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
865 inc does not need to be setgid.
866
867 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
868
869 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
870 library, as found on Debian systems.
871
872 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
873
874 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
875
876 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
877 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
878 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
879 case-insensitivity flag.
880
881 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
882
883 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
884 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
885
886 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
887
888 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
889 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
890 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
891 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
892 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
893 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
894 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
895 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
896 getting moved aside).
897
898 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
899 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
900
901 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
902
903 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
904 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
905 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
906 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
907 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
908 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
909 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
910 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
911 the prototype, but never sets it.
912
913 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
914 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
915 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
916 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
917 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
918 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
919
920 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
921 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
922 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
923 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
924 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
925
926 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
927
928 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
929 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
930 of tws.h.
931
932 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
933 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
934 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
935 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
936 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
937 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
938 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
939
940 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
941
942 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
943
944 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
945 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
946 this works on other systems.

948 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
949
950 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
951 checks for write failures.
952
953 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
954
955 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
956
957 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
958 is patched in.
959
960 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
961
962 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
963
964 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
965
966 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
967 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
968 a buffer boundary.
969
970 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
971
972 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
973 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
974 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
975 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
976
977 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
978
979 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
980 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
981 place.
982
983 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
984 as well as Makefiles.
985
986 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
987
988 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
989 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
990 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
991 should make maintainability easier.
992
993 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
994 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
995 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
996 whatever you know works.
997
998 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
999
1000 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1001 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1002 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1003
1004 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1005 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1006 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1007 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1008
1009 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1010 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1011 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1012
1013 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1014 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1015 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1016 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1017 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1018
1019 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1020 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1021 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1022 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1023 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1024 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1025 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1026 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1027 from the BSD version.
1028
1029 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1030 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1031 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1032
1033 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1034 in ruserpass.c also.
1035
1036 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1037 report:
1038
1039 This happens on solaris:
1040
1041 % man mts.conf
1042 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1043 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1044
1045 It is fixed by
1046
1047 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1048
1049 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1050 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1051
1052 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1053
1054 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1055 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1056 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1057 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1058 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1059 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1060 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1061 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1062 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1063 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1064 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1065
1066 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1067 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1068 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1069 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1070 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1071 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1072 out of nowhere.
1073
1074 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1075 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1076 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1077 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1078 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1079
1080 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1081 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1082
1083 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1084
1085 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1086 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1087 to stdin, such as exmh.
1088
1089 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1090 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1091 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1092 other files.
1093
1094 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1095
1096 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1097 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1098 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1099 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1100 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1101 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1102 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1103
1104 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1105
1106 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1107 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1108
1109 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1110
1111 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1112 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1113
1114 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1115
1116 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1117 --enable-apop.
1118
1119 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1120 along with any -host or -user option.
1121
1122 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1123
1124 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1125
1126 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1127 process was fresh in my mind.
1128
1129 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1130
1131 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1132 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1133
1134 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1135
1136 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1137
1138 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1139 patch:
1140
1141 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1142 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1143 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1144 part of the program's name.
1145
1146 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1147 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1148 to quote.
1149
1150 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1151
1152 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1153 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1154 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1155 single-character format would cause programs using this
1156 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1157 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1158 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1159 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1160 in the array.
1161
1162 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1163
1164 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1165 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1166 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1167 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1168 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1169 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1170
1171 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1172 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1173 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1174 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1175 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1176 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1177 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1178 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1179
1180 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1181 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1182 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1183 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1184 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1185 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1186 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1187 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1188 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1189 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1190
1191 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1192
1193 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1194 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1195
1196 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1197 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1198
1199 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1200 exit 2
1201
1202 and:
1203
1204 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1205
1206 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1207 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1208 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1209 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1210
1211 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1212 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1213 problem in the routine.
1214
1215 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1216
1217 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1218 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1219
1220 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1221 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1222 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1223 spool somehow.
1224
1225 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1226
1227 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1228 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1229 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1230 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1231 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1232 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1233 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1234 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1235 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1236 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1237
1238 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1239
1240 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1241 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1242 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1243 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1244 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1245 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1246 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1247 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1248 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1249 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1250 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1251 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1252
1253 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1254 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1255 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1256 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1257 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1258
1259 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1260 POP is enabled.
1261
1262 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1263
1264 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1265 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1266 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1267 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1268 here.
1269
1270 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1271
1272 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1273
1274 * Applied, after some finessing,
1275 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1276
1277 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1278
1279 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1280
1281 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1282 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1283 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1284 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1285
1286 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1287
1288 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1289 forgetting to do so!).
1290
1291 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1292 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1293 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1294 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1295 arguments to enable all three types.
1296
1297 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1298 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1299
1300 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1301 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1302 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1303 updated copy of mts.conf.
1304
1305 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1306
1307 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1308 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1309 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1310
1311 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1312 and
1313 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1314
1315 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1316 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1317 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1318
1319 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1320 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1321 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1322
1323 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1324 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1325 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1326
1327 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1328
1329 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1330
1331 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1332
1333 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1334
1335 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1336 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1337
1338 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1339 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1340 certain suffix to run properly.
1341
1342 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1343 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1344 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1345
1346 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1347 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1348 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1349 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1350 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1351 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1352 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1353
1354 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1355
1356 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1357 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1358 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1359 until some year far in the future).
1360
1361 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1362
1363 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1364
1365 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1366 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1367
1368 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1369 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1370 corrupted.
1371
1372 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1373
1374 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1375 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1376 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1377 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1378 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1379 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1380
1381 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1382
1383 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1384
1385 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1386 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1387 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1388
1389 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1390 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1391 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1392 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1393 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1394 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1395 leads me to:
1396
1397 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1398 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1399 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1400 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1401 of masquerading individually.
1402
1403 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1404 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1405 GECOS field delimiters.
1406
1407 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1408
1409 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1410 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1411 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1412 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1413 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1414 and explaining the feature.
1415
1416 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1417
1418 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1419 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1420 so).
1421
1422 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1423 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1424 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1425
1426 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1427 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1428 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1429 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1430
1431 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1432 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1433 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1434 anywhere.
1435
1436 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1437
1438 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1439 code to be executed.
1440
1441 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1442
1443 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1444
1445 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1446 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1447 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1448 quotes embedded in them.
1449
1450 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1451
1452 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1453 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1454 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1455 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1456 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1457 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1458 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1459 allowed to specify.
1460
1461 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1462 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1463 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1464 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1465 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1466
1467 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1468
1469 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1470
1471 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1472 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1473 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1474 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1475
1476 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1477 KPOP server.
1478
1479 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1480
1481 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1482
1483 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1484
1485 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1486 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1487 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1488
1489 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1490 mhn.defaults.sh.
1491
1492 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1493
1494 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1495 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1496 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1497 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1498 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1499 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1500
1501 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1502 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1503
1504 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1505
1506 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1507 page.
1508
1509 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1510
1511 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1512 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1513 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1514 to be setgid.
1515
1516 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1517 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1518 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1519 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1520 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1521 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1522 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1523 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1524 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1525 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1526 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1527 processing that post has).
1528
1529 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1530
1531 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1532 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1533 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1534 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1535 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1536 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1537 Solaris 2.6).
1538
1539 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1540
1541 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1542
1543 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1544
1545 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1546
1547 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1548 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1549
1550 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1551 command-line.
1552
1553 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1554
1555 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1556 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1557 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1558 some development.
1559
1560 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1561
1562 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1563 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1564 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1565 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1566 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1567 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1568
1569 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1570
1571 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1572
1573 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1574
1575 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1576 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1577 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1578 caught again. This works for now.
1579
1580 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1581
1582 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1583
1584 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1585 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1586
1587 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1588
1589 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1590 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1591
1592 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1593
1594 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1595
1596 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1597
1598 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1599 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1600
1601 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1602
1603 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1604 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1605 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1606 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1607 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1608 multiple purposes.
1609
1610 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1611
1612 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1613 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1614 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1615
1616 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1617 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1618 config.guess.
1619
1620 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1621
1622 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1623 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1624 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1625
1626 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1627
1628 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1629 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1630
1631 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1632
1633 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1634 distributed.
1635
1636 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1637 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1638
1639 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1640 macros, regardless of platform.
1641
1642 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1643 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1644
1645 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1646 with x-conversions=gzip.
1647
1648 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1649
1650 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1651 post.c.
1652
1653 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1654 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1655 implicit definition of ioctl().
1656
1657 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1658 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1659 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1660 want to mess with them.
1661
1662 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1663
1664 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1665 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1666
1667 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1668 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1669
1670 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1671 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1672 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1673
1674 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1675 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1676 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1677
1678 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1679 function initgroups.
1680
1681 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1682 function.
1683
1684 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1685 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1686 to fix warnings.
1687
1688 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1689 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1690 prevent warnings.
1691
1692 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1693 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1694 statements).
1695
1696
1697 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1698
1699 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1700 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1701 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1702
1703 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1704 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1705
1706 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1707
1708 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1709
1710 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1711 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1712 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1713 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1714
1715 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1716 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1717
1718 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1719
1720 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1721
1722 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1723
1724 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1725 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1726
1727 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1728
1729 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1730 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1731
1732 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1733 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1734 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1735 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1736
1737 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1738 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1739
1740 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1741
1742 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1743 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1744
1745 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1746
1747 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1748 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1749 proper #defines.
1750
1751 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1752
1753 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1754
1755 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1756
1757 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1758 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1759
1760 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1761 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1762 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1763
1764 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1765 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1766 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1767
1768 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1769 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1770 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1771
1772 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1773 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1774 <swb@nconnect.net>.
1775
1776 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1777 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1778
1779 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1780 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1781
1782 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1783 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1784
1785 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1786 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1787 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1788
1789 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1790 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1791
1792 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1793 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1794 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1795
1796 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1797 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1798 <rmg@netapp.com>.
1799
1800 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1801 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1802
1803 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1804 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1805 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1806 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1807
1808 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1809 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1810
1811 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1812
1813 * Released nmh-1.0.
1814
1815 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1816 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1817 would not be changed.
1818
1819 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1820 one from the Apache web server.
1821
1822 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1823 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1824
1825 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1826 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1827 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1828
1829 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1830
1831 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1832
1833 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1834 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1835 verbose printing).
1836
1837 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1838 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1839 removes a bad race condition.
1840
1841 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1842 style drop file.
1843
1844 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1845 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1846 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1847
1848 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1849 sequence information.
1850
1851 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1852 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1853
1854 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1855 count.
1856
1857 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1858 is empty.
1859
1860 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1861
1862 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1863 interpret 034 as octal.
1864
1865 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1866
1867 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1868 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1869
1870 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1871 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1872
1873 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1874 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1875
1876 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1877 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1878
1879 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1880 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1881
1882 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1883 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1884 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1885
1886 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1887 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1888 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1889
1890 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1891
1892 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1893
1894 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1895 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1896 file "mhoutsbr.c".
1897
1898 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1899
1900 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1901 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1902
1903 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1904 header field information.
1905
1906 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1907 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1908
1909 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1910 values when parsing a content.
1911
1912 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1913 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1914
1915 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1916 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1917
1918 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1919 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1920
1921 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1922 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1923
1924 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1925
1926 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1927
1928 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1929
1930 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1931
1932 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1933 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1934 read.
1935
1936 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1937 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1938
1939 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1940 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1941 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1942 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1943 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1944 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1945 be setuid/setgid.
1946
1947 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1948
1949 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1950 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1951 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1952
1953 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1954 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1955
1956 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1957
1958 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1959 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1960 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1961 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1962
1963 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1964 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1965 fix).
1966
1967 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1968 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1969 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1970 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1971 arguments.
1972
1973 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1974
1975 * Released nmh-0.27.
1976
1977 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1978 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1979
1980 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1981 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1982 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1983 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1984 with no arguments.
1985
1986 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1987 mhbuild returns an error.
1988
1989 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1990 rename the draft file.
1991
1992 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1993 use a global variable.
1994
1995 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1996 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1997
1998 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1999 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2000
2001 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2002 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2003 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2004
2005 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2006 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2007
2008 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2009 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2010 this new page.
2011
2012 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2013 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2014 viamail program.
2015
2016 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2017 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2018
2019 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2020 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2021 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2022
2023 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2024 to new function output_content_folder.
2025
2026 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2027 new function output_content_file.
2028
2029 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2030 to new function parse_format_string.
2031
2032 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2033 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2034 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2035 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2036
2037 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2038 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2039 message/external file from ftp.
2040
2041 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2042 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2043 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2044
2045 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2046 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2047 mhfree.c.
2048
2049 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2050 file mhshowsbr.c.
2051
2052 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2053 new file mhstoresbr.c
2054
2055 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2056 file mhparse.c.
2057
2058 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2059 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2060
2061 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2062 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2063
2064 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2065 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2066 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2067
2068 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2069
2070 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2071
2072 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2073 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2074 to main().
2075
2076 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2077 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2078
2079 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2080 to mhparse.c).
2081
2082 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2083
2084 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2085
2086 * Released nmh-0.26.
2087
2088 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2089 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2090 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2091 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2092
2093 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2094 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2095 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2096 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2097 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2098
2099 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2100 But it is not on by default.
2101
2102 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2103 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2104
2105 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2106
2107 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2108
2109 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2110
2111 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2112
2113 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2114 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2115
2116 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2117
2118 * Released nmh-0.25.
2119
2120 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2121 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2122 uses the original name of the library.
2123
2124 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2125 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2126 links remaining.
2127
2128 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2129 list_content and list_debug.
2130
2131 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2132
2133 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2134 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2135
2136 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2137
2138 * Released nmh-0.24.
2139
2140 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2141
2142 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2143 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2144
2145 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2146 large sequence line.
2147
2148 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2149
2150 * Released nmh-0.23.
2151
2152 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2153
2154 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2155 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2156 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2157 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2158
2159 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2160 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2161 file h/mhnsbr.h.
2162
2163 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2164
2165 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2166
2167 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2168
2169 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2170 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2171
2172 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2173 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2174
2175 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2176 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2177
2178 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2179 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2180
2181 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2182
2183 * Released nmh-0.22.
2184
2185 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2186 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2187
2188 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2189
2190 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2191 mh-profile(5) man page.
2192
2193 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2194 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2195
2196 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2197
2198 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2199
2200 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2201 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2202
2203 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2204
2205 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2206 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2207 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2208
2209 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2210 source message on the standard input.
2211
2212 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2213
2214 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2215 rather than -rfc934mode.
2216
2217 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2218 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2219 only one message.
2220
2221 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2222 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2223
2224 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2225 it is still needed.
2226
2227 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2228
2229 * Released nmh-0.21.
2230
2231 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2232 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2233
2234 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2235 encoding to use.
2236
2237 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2238 to use for text contents.
2239
2240 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2241
2242 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2243
2244 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2245
2246 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2247
2248 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2249 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2250
2251 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2252 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2253 spaces between encoded word are.
2254
2255 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2256
2257 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2258 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2259
2260 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2261 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2262 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2263
2264 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2265
2266 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2267 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2268
2269 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2270
2271 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2272
2273 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2274 ISO-8859-X character set.
2275
2276 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2277 pager more.
2278
2279 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2280 permissions, not write permissions.
2281
2282 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2283 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2284
2285 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2286 distribution.
2287
2288 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2289
2290 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2291
2292 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2293 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2294
2295 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2296 message contains valid character set.
2297
2298 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2299 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2300
2301 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2302 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2303
2304 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2305 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2306 between an encoded word and normal text.
2307
2308 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2309 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2310
2311 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2312 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2313
2314 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2315 and -help.
2316
2317 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2318 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2319 loops).
2320
2321 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2322 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2323
2324 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2325 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2326
2327 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2328
2329 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2330
2331 * Released nmh-0.20.
2332
2333 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2334
2335 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2336
2337 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2338 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2339 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2340
2341 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2342 and the To: line was missing.
2343
2344 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2345
2346 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2347
2348 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2349
2350 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2351 watch the POP transaction.
2352
2353 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2354 first, and use it if available.
2355
2356 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2357 first, and use it if available.
2358
2359 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2360
2361 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2362
2363 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2364 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2365 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2366 sequence line.
2367
2368 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2369 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2370 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2371
2372 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2373 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2374 lines.
2375
2376 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2377
2378 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2379 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2380
2381 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2382
2383 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2384 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2385
2386 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2387 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2388 message to which you are replying.
2389
2390 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2391 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2392 making group replies.
2393
2394 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2395
2396 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2397
2398 * Released nmh-0.19.
2399
2400 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2401 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2402
2403 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2404 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2405 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2406 to the end of the man page.
2407
2408 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2409 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2410 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2411 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2412 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2413 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2414
2415 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2416 pages.
2417
2418 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2419 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2420 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2421
2422 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2423 the next available number above the message number you wish
2424 to preserve.
2425
2426 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2427 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2428
2429 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2430 file sbr/seq_print.c
2431
2432 * flist will now update the current folder.
2433
2434 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2435 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2436 but now undocumented.
2437
2438 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2439 traversing folders.
2440
2441 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2442 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2443
2444 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2445
2446 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2447 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2448
2449 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2450
2451 * Released nmh-0.18.
2452
2453 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2454 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2455 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2456
2457 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2458 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2459
2460 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2461 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2462 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2463 previous public/private status.
2464
2465 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2466 correctly.
2467
2468 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2469 private sequences).
2470
2471 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2472 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2473 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2474
2475 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2476 take option to determine whether it should get current
2477 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2478 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2479
2480 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2481
2482 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2483 wait for stopped processes.
2484
2485 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2486 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2487
2488 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2489
2490 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2491
2492 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2493 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2494
2495 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2496 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2497
2498 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2499 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2500 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2501 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2502
2503 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2504 status allocation).
2505
2506 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2507 the code.
2508
2509 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2510
2511 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2512 the debugging output.
2513
2514 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2515 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2516
2517 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2518
2519 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2520
2521 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2522 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2523
2524 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2525
2526 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2527 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2528 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2529 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2530 in the given sequence.
2531
2532 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2533 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2534 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2535 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2536 subdirectories of a given directory.
2537
2538 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2539 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2540 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2541
2542 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2543 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2544
2545 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2546
2547 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2548 to 0700 (was 0711).
2549
2550 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2551 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2552 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2553
2554 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2555 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2556 are calculated at runtime.
2557
2558 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2559
2560 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2561
2562 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2563 about checking for global mh.profile.
2564
2565 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2566 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2567 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2568 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2569 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2570 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2571
2572 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2573 adding message to folder itself.
2574
2575 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2576 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2577 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2578 instead of exiting.
2579
2580 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2581 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2582 the error EEXIST.
2583
2584 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2585 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2586 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2587
2588 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2589 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2590
2591 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2592 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2593 code to use it yet).
2594
2595 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2596
2597 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2598
2599 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2600 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2601
2602 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2603 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2604
2605 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2606
2607 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2608 to folder_addmsg.c
2609
2610 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2611
2612 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2613
2614 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2615
2616 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2617
2618 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2619 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2620
2621 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2622
2623 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2624
2625 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2626
2627 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2628
2629 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2630
2631 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2632 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2633
2634 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2635 configuration files.
2636
2637 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2638
2639 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2640
2641 * Released nmh-0.17.
2642
2643 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2644
2645 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2646 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2647
2648 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2649 defined.
2650
2651 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2652 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2653
2654 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2655 number of refiled message.
2656
2657 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2658
2659 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2660 for return value of wait().
2661
2662 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2663
2664 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2665
2666 * Released nmh-0.16.
2667
2668 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2669
2670 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2671
2672 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2673 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2674 deal with binary messages, yet).
2675
2676 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2677
2678 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2679
2680 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2681 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2682 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2683 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2684 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2685 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2686
2687 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2688 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2689
2690 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2691 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2692
2693 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2694 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2695 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2696
2697 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2698
2699 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2700
2701 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2702 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2703 composition files.
2704
2705 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2706 files.
2707
2708 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2709
2710 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2711 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2712 which used unsigned chars by default.
2713
2714 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2715
2716 * Released nmh-0.15.
2717
2718 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2719 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2720
2721 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2722
2723 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2724
2725 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2726 return 0.
2727
2728 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2729 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2730 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2731
2732 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2733 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2734
2735 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2736
2737 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2738 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2739
2740 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2741 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2742 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2743 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2744
2745 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2746 and put in own subroutine.
2747
2748 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2749 and put in own subroutine.
2750
2751 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2752 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2753 refile.c to use new routine.
2754
2755 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2756
2757 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2758
2759 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2760 seq_getnum.
2761
2762 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2763 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2764 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2765
2766 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2767 no longer used.
2768
2769 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2770 adding message to sequence.
2771
2772 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2773 corresponding file in sbr.
2774
2775 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2776 file in sbr.
2777
2778 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2779
2780 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2781 all selected messages from a sequence.
2782
2783 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2784 selected messages to a sequence.
2785
2786 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2787 and m_seqok.c.
2788
2789 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2790
2791 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2792 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2793
2794 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2795
2796 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2797 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2798
2799 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2800
2801 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2802 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2803
2804 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2805
2806 * Released nmh-0.14.
2807
2808 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2809 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2810
2811 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2812
2813 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2814 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2815 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2816 environment variable.
2817
2818 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2819 draft folder facility in nmh.
2820
2821 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2822 to fmt_compile.h.
2823
2824 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2825 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2826 fmt_addr.c.
2827
2828 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2829 options.
2830
2831 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2832
2833 * Released nmh-0.13.
2834
2835 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2836 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2837 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2838 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2839 to MAXARGS).
2840
2841 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2842 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2843
2844 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2845
2846 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2847 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2848
2849 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2850
2851 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2852 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2853
2854 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2855
2856 * Released nmh-0.12.
2857
2858 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2859
2860 * Released nmh-0.11.
2861
2862 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2863
2864 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2865 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2866
2867 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2868 mp->attrstats with macros.
2869
2870 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2871 in msh.c instead.
2872
2873 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2874 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2875
2876 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2877 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2878
2879 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2880 will suppress the display of the message header.
2881
2882 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2883
2884 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2885 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2886
2887 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2888
2889 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2890
2891 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2892

2894 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2895
2896 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2897 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2898

2900
2901 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.

2904 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2905
2906 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2907 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2953
2954 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.

2958
2959 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2960
2961 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2962 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2963
2964 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2965
2966 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2967 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2968
2969 * Released nmh-0.08.
2970
2971 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2972 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2973 locking database itself.
2974
2975 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2976
2977 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2978
2979 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2980 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2981 option.
2982
2983 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2984 rather than mmdf format.
2985
2986 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2987 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2988 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2989 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2990
2991 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2992
2993 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2996 added to packf.
2997
2998 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2999 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3000 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3001
3002 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3003 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3004 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3005
3006 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3007
3008 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3009 can still easily change this in config.h).
3010
3011 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3012 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3013 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3014
3015 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3016
3017 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

3031 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3032 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3033
3034 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3035 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3036 on SCO 5.x.
3037
3038 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3039 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3040
3041 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3042 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3043
3044 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3045
3046 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3047
3048 * Added configure check for tzset.
3049

3051
3052 * Released nmh-0.06.
3053
3054 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3055 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3056
3057 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3058 many such machines around anymore.
3059
3060 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3061 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3062
3063 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3064 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3065
3066 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3069 pre-generated version if necessary.
3070
3071 * Released nmh-0.05.
3072
3073 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3074 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3075 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3076 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3077
3078 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3079 be linked in one pass.
3080
3081 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3082
3083 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3084 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3085
3086 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3087
3088 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3089
3090 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3091
3092 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3093 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3094 become the current folder.
3095
3096 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3097

3102
3103 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3104
3105 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3106 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3107 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3108
3109 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3110
3111 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3112 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3113
3114 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3115
3116 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3117 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3118 using POP.
3119
3120 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3121 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3122
3123 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3124
3125 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3126 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3127 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3128 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3129 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3130 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3131
3132 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3133
3134 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3135 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3136
3137 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3138 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3139
3140 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3141
3142 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3143 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3144
3145 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3146
3147 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3148 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3149 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3150
3151 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3152
3153 * Released nmh-0.03.
3154
3155 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3156 .mh_sequence file existed.
3157
3158 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3159 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3160
3161 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3162 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3163 man page.
3164
3165 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3166
3167 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3168 flist man page.
3169
3170 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3171
3172 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3173 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3174 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3175
3176 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3177
3178 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3179 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3180 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3181
3182 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3183
3184 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3185 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3186
3187 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3188
3189 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3190
3191 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3192 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3193 directory from where the source code is located.
3194
3195 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3196

3214
3215 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3216
3217 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3218 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3219 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3220 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3221 rather than in script.
3222
3223 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3224
3225 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3226
3227 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3228 macro defined on Solaris.
3229
3230 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3231
3232 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3233 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3234
3235 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3236 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3237 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3238 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3239 options if enabled.
3240
3241 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3242
3243 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3244 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3245
3246 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3247 correctly found.
3248
3249 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3250
3251 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3252
3253 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3254 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3255
3256 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3257
3258 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3259 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3260
3261 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3262
3263 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3264 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3265 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3266 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3267 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3268 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3269
3270 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3271
3272 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3273
3274 * Released nmh-0.01.
3275
3276 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3277 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3278 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3279 have POSIX signals.
3280
3281 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3282
3283 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3284 their man pages.
3285
3286 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3287
3288 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3289 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3290
3291 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3292
3293 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3294 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3295 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3296 script to find_program.
3297
3298 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3299
3300 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3301 speed up -recurse option.
3302
3303 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3304 yet, but it compiles :-)
3305
3306 * Changed default location for install to
3307 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3308 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3309 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3310 level Makefile.
3311
3312 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3313 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3314 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
