[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
2
3 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
4 been branched off.
5
6 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
7
8 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
9
10 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
11
12 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
13 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
14 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
15 obsolete feature of autoconf
16
17 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
18
19 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
20 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
21 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
22
23 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
24
25 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
26 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
27
28 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
29
30 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
31 multipart messages.
32
33 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
34
35 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
36 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
37 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
38 following done() (should never be reached).
39
40 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
41
42 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
43 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
44
45 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
46
47 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
48 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
49
50 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
51
52 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
53 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
54 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
55 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
56 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
57 acconfig.h if you must.
58
59 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
60
61 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
62 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
63 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
64 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
65
66 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
67
68 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
69 inc sgid.
70
71 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
72
73 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
74 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
75 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
76 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
77 have Content-Disposition.
78
79 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
80
81 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
82 if it isn't valid.
83
84 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
85
86 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
87 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
88
89 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
90
91 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
92 encoded block is empty
93
94 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
95
96 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
97 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
98 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
99 do this.
100
101 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
102
103 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
104 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
105 dtime() prototype.
106
107 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
108
109 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
110 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
111 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
112 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
113 description.
114
115 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
116 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
117
118 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
119
120 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
121 function num_digits into utils.c
122
123 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
124
125 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
126 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
127 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
128
129 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
130
131 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
132 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
133 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
134 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
135 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
136 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
137 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
138 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
139
140 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
141
142 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
143 Content-Disposition header.
144
145 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
146
147 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
148 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
149 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
150 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
151 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
152 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
153 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
154 users to easily accomodate that by adding
155 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
156
157 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
158
159 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
160 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
161
162 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
163
164 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
165
166 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
167 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
168
169 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
170 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
171
172 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
173
174 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
175 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
176 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
177 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
178 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
179 the signature.
180
181 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
182
183 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
184 widths, restoring right justification feature
185
186 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
187
188 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
189 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
190 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
191
192 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
193 chars fit
194
195 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
196
197 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
198 handling multi column characters.
199
200 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
201
202 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
203
204 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
205
206 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
207 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
208 has been removed.
209
210 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
211
212 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
213
214 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
215
216 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
217 calling realloc.
218
219 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
220
221 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
222 calling malloc.
223
224 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
225
226 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
227 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
228 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
229 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
230
231 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
232
233 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
234 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
235 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
236 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
237 where configure's autodetection fails.
238
239 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
240
241 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
242 configure script change.
243
244 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
245
246 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
247 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
248 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
249 systems with libdb4.
250
251 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
252
253 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
254 the context is only read once.
255
256 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
257
258 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
259 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
260
261 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
262
263 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
264 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
265
266 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
267 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
268 the first one.
269
270 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
271 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
272 annotated messages.
273
274 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
275
276 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
277 vi isn't found during build.
278
279 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
280
281 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
282 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
283
284 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
285 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
286 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
287
288 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
289
290 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
291 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
292
293 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
294 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
295 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
296 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
297 very slow).
298
299 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
300 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
301 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
302
303 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
304 entry in the context file.
305
306 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
307
308 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
309 problems on some systems
310
311 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
312 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
313
314 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
315
316 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
317 sendmail isn't found during build.
318
319 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
320
321 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
322
323 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
324
325 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
326 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
327
328 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
329 references to the web page and mailing list locations
330
331 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
332 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
333
334 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
335 autoconf macros
336
337 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
338
339 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
340 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
341 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
342
343 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
344 was configured with --enable-apop.
345
346 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
347 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
348 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
349
350 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
351 new versions of flex.
352
353 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
354 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
355 doesn't guess wrongly.
356
357 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
358
359 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
360 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
361
362 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
363 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
364
365 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
366 files with numbers as names
367
368 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
369
370 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
371
372 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
373
374 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
375
376 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
377 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
378
379 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
380
381 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
382 vfork on Linux
383
384 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
385 test/report error writing to stdout
386
387 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
388
389 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
390
391 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
392 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
393 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
394
395 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
396 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
397 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
398
399 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
400
401 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
402 character set used by the current locale
403
404 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
405 message's filename overflows an int when converted
406
407 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
408 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
409
410 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
411
412 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
413 the terminal
414
415 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
416
417 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
418 from Michael Richardson.
419
420 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
421 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
422
423 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
424
425 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
426 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
427
428 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
429
430 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
431 find sub-parts of the specified part
432
433 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
434
435 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
436 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
437 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
438 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
439 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
440 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
441 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
442 that path.
443
444 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
445
446 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
447 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
448 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
449 renamed.
450
451 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
452 refiling with -src option.
453
454 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
455
456 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
457
458 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
459
460 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
461 mailpath being overwritten.
462
463 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
464
465 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
466 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
467 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
468 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
469 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
470 reinitializes the tmp file string.
471
472 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
473 if a format string was read from the profile.
474
475 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
476 path for the external hook.
477
478 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
479
480 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
481 another location for ndbm.
482
483 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
484
485 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
486 independent.
487 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
488 to empty folder.
489 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
490
491 Debian Bug#
492 136976 - Handle binary content messages
493 143427 - mh-format.man typo
494 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
495 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
496 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
497 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
498 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
499 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
500 181867 - typo for nmh.man
501
502 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
503
504 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
505 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
506 contitional code which will result in cached data to
507 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
508 and parse on the first use.
509 * Remove some unused flag bits.
510
511 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
512
513 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
514 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
515 * Fixes for bugs
516 #578 - repl leaks umask
517 #1393 - sortm core dumps
518 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
519 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
520 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
521 RFC2822 compliant
522 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
523 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
524
525 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
526
527 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
528 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
529
530 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
531
532 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
533 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
534 to docs/README.about.
535
536 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
537
538 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
539
540 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
541 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
542 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
543 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
544 enough).
545
546 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
547
548 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
549 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
550 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
551 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
552 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
553 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
554 as well.
555
556 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
557 summary configure prints out.
558
559 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
560 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
561 subjectively more readable) format.
562
563 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
564
565 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
566 all nmh commands.
567
568 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
569
570 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
571 19xx when it's not necessary.
572
573 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
574
575 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
576 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
577 roff mark-up.
578
579 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
580 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
581 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
582 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
583 the man pages correctly.
584
585 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
586
587 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
588
589 * Finished manpages ali-prev
590
591 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
592 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
593 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
594 structure.
595
596 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
597 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
598 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
599 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
600
601 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
602
603 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
604 the formatting rules I've been using.
605
606 * Finished ali-inc.
607
608 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
609
610 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
611 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
612 used in the manpages.
613
614 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
615 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
616 read in the contents of the file as the variable
617 $DATE.
618
619 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
620 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
621 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
622 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
623 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
624 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
625 bold flags and italicized parameters.
626
627 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
628
629 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
630 --with-locking option.
631
632 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
633 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
634 information was not being communicated to the
635 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
636 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
637 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
638 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
639 undefined symbols problems.
640
641 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
642 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
643 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
644 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
645 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
646 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
647 for a genuine krb4 installation.
648
649 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
650
651 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
652 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
653
654 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
655
656 * Made a new ./configure option called
657 "--with-locking" that allows the file
658 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
659 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
660
661 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
662 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
663 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
664 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
665 the user that these are the valid options, and
666 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
667 descriptive enough.
668
669 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
670
671 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
672 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
673 committed to supporting flex only, since
674 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
675 string, as well as other problems documented
676 below and on nmh-workers.
677
678 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
679 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
680 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
681 the flag.
682
683 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
684 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
685
686 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
687
688 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
689 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
690 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
691
692 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
693
694 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
695 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
696
697 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
698
699 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
700 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
701 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
702 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
703 couldn't correctly identify them.
704
705 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
706
707 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
708 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
709 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
710 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
711 not depending on an external archive.
712
713 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
714 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
715 mts/generic is no longer built.
716
717 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
718
719 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
720 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
721 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
722 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
723 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
724 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
725 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
726 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
727
728 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
729
730 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
731 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
732 correct.
733
734 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
735
736 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
737 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
738 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
739 now finally mts.
740
741 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
742 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
743 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
744 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
745
746 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
747 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
748 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
749 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
750 merged into the smtp code).
751
752 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
753 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
754 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
755 of it for us.
756
757 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
758 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
759 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
760 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
761 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
762 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
763 in the appropriate Makefile.in
764
765 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
766
767 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
768 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
769 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
770 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
771 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
772 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
773 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
774 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
775 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
776 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
777 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
778
779 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
780
781 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
782 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
783 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
784 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
785 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
786 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
787 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
788 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
789 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
790
791 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
792
793 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
794 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
795 able to access them.
796
797 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
798
799 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
800 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
801
802 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
803
804 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
805 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
806 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
807 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
808
809 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
810
811 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
812 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
813 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
814 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
815 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
816
817 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
818 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
819
820 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
821
822 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
823
824 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
825 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
826 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
827 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
828
829 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
830 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
831 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
832 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
833
834 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
835 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
836 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
837 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
838
839 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
840 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
841 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
842
843 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
844
845 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
846 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
847 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
848 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
849 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
850 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
851 my users.
852
853 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
854 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
855
856 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
857 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
858
859 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
860
861 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
862
863 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
864
865 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
866 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
867 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
868 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
869
870 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
871
872 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
873 be easily changed from "," to "#".
874
875 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
876
877 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
878
879 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
880 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
881 README.developers.
882
883 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
884
885 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
886 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
887 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
888 but not for the subsequent data stream.
889
890 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
891
892 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
893 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
894 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
895 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
896 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
897
898 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
899
900 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
901 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
902
903 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
904 cat, also define lorder as echo.
905
906 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
907
908 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
909
910 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
911 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
912 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
913
914 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
915
916 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
917 #if 0 block).
918
919 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
920 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
921
922 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
923
924 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
925 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
926
927 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
928
929 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
930 inc does not need to be setgid.
931
932 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
933
934 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
935 library, as found on Debian systems.
936
937 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
938
939 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
940
941 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
942 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
943 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
944 case-insensitivity flag.
945
946 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
947
948 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
949 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.

952
953 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
954 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
955 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
956 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
957 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
958 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
959 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
960 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
961 getting moved aside).
962
963 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
964 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
965
966 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
967
968 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
969 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
970 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
971 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
972 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
973 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
974 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
975 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
976 the prototype, but never sets it.
977
978 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
979 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
980 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
981 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
982 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
983 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
984
985 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
986 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
987 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
988 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
989 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
990
991 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
992
993 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
994 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
995 of tws.h.
996
997 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
998 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
999 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1000 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1001 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1002 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1003 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1004
1005 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1006
1007 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1008
1009 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1010 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1011 this works on other systems.
1012
1013 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1014
1015 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1016 checks for write failures.
1017
1018 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1019
1020 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1021
1022 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1023 is patched in.
1024
1025 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1026
1027 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1028
1029 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1030
1031 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1032 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1033 a buffer boundary.
1034
1035 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1036
1037 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1038 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1039 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1040 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1041
1042 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1043
1044 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1045 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1046 place.
1047
1048 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1049 as well as Makefiles.
1050
1051 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1052
1053 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1054 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1055 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1056 should make maintainability easier.
1057
1058 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1059 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1060 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1061 whatever you know works.
1062
1063 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1064
1065 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1066 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1067 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1068
1069 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1070 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1071 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1072 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1073
1074 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1075 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1076 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1077
1078 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1079 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1080 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1081 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1082 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1083
1084 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1085 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1086 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1087 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1088 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1089 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1090 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1091 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1092 from the BSD version.
1093
1094 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1095 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1096 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1097
1098 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1099 in ruserpass.c also.
1100
1101 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1102 report:
1103
1104 This happens on solaris:
1105
1106 % man mts.conf
1107 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1108 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1109
1110 It is fixed by
1111
1112 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1113
1114 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1115 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1116
1117 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1118
1119 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1120 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1121 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1122 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1123 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1124 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1125 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1126 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1127 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1128 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1129 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1130
1131 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1132 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1133 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1134 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1135 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1136 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1137 out of nowhere.
1138
1139 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1140 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1141 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1142 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1143 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1144
1145 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1146 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1147
1148 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1149
1150 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1151 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1152 to stdin, such as exmh.
1153
1154 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1155 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1156 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1157 other files.
1158
1159 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1160
1161 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1162 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1163 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1164 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1165 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1166 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1167 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1168
1169 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1170
1171 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1172 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1173
1174 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1175
1176 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1177 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1178
1179 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1180
1181 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1182 --enable-apop.
1183
1184 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1185 along with any -host or -user option.
1186
1187 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1188
1189 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1190
1191 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1192 process was fresh in my mind.
1193
1194 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1195
1196 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1197 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1198
1199 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1200
1201 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1202
1203 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1204 patch:
1205
1206 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1207 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1208 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1209 part of the program's name.
1210
1211 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1212 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1213 to quote.
1214
1215 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1216
1217 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1218 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1219 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1220 single-character format would cause programs using this
1221 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1222 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1223 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1224 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1225 in the array.
1226
1227 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1228
1229 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1230 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1231 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1232 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1233 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1234 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1235
1236 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1237 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1238 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1239 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1240 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1241 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1242 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1243 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1244
1245 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1246 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1247 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1248 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1249 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1250 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1251 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1252 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1253 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1254 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1255
1256 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1257
1258 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1259 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1260
1261 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1262 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1263
1264 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1265 exit 2
1266
1267 and:
1268
1269 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1270
1271 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1272 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1273 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1274 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1275
1276 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1277 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1278 problem in the routine.
1279
1280 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1281
1282 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1283 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1284
1285 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1286 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1287 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1288 spool somehow.
1289
1290 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1291
1292 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1293 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1294 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1295 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1296 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1297 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1298 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1299 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1300 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1301 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1302
1303 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1304
1305 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1306 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1307 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1308 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1309 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1310 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1311 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1312 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1313 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1314 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1315 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1316 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1317
1318 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1319 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1320 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1321 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1322 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1323
1324 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1325 POP is enabled.
1326
1327 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1328
1329 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1330 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1331 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1332 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1333 here.
1334
1335 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1336
1337 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1338
1339 * Applied, after some finessing,
1340 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1341
1342 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1343
1344 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1345
1346 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1347 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1348 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1349 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1350
1351 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1352
1353 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1354 forgetting to do so!).
1355
1356 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1357 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1358 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1359 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1360 arguments to enable all three types.
1361
1362 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1363 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1364
1365 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1366 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1367 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1368 updated copy of mts.conf.
1369
1370 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1371
1372 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1373 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1374 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1375
1376 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1377 and
1378 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1379
1380 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1381 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1382 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1383
1384 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1385 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1386 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1387
1388 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1389 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1390 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1391
1392 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1393
1394 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1395
1396 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1397
1398 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1399
1400 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1401 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1402
1403 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1404 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1405 certain suffix to run properly.
1406
1407 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1408 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1409 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1410
1411 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1412 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1413 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1414 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1415 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1416 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1417 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1418
1419 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1420
1421 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1422 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1423 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1424 until some year far in the future).
1425
1426 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1427
1428 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1429
1430 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1431 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1432
1433 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1434 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1435 corrupted.
1436
1437 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1438
1439 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1440 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1441 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1442 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1443 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1444 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1445
1446 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1447
1448 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1449
1450 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1451 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1452 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1453
1454 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1455 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1456 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1457 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1458 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1459 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1460 leads me to:
1461
1462 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1463 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1464 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1465 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1466 of masquerading individually.
1467
1468 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1469 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1470 GECOS field delimiters.
1471
1472 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1473
1474 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1475 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1476 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1477 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1478 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1479 and explaining the feature.
1480
1481 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1482
1483 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1484 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1485 so).
1486
1487 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1488 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1489 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1490
1491 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1492 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1493 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1494 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1495
1496 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1497 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1498 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1499 anywhere.
1500
1501 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1502
1503 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1504 code to be executed.
1505
1506 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1507
1508 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1509
1510 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1511 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1512 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1513 quotes embedded in them.
1514
1515 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1516
1517 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1518 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1519 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1520 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1521 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1522 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1523 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1524 allowed to specify.
1525
1526 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1527 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1528 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1529 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1530 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1531
1532 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1533
1534 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1535
1536 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1537 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1538 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1539 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1540
1541 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1542 KPOP server.
1543
1544 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1545
1546 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1547
1548 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1549
1550 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1551 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1552 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1553
1554 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1555 mhn.defaults.sh.
1556
1557 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1558
1559 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1560 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1561 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1562 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1563 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1564 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1565
1566 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1567 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1568
1569 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1570
1571 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1572 page.
1573
1574 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1575
1576 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1577 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1578 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1579 to be setgid.
1580
1581 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1582 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1583 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1584 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1585 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1586 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1587 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1588 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1589 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1590 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1591 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1592 processing that post has).
1593
1594 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1595
1596 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1597 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1598 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1599 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1600 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1601 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1602 Solaris 2.6).
1603
1604 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1605
1606 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1607
1608 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1609
1610 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1611
1612 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1613 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1614
1615 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1616 command-line.
1617
1618 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1619
1620 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1621 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1622 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1623 some development.
1624
1625 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1626
1627 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1628 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1629 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1630 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1631 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1632 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1633
1634 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1635
1636 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1637
1638 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1639
1640 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1641 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1642 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1643 caught again. This works for now.
1644
1645 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1646
1647 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1648
1649 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1650 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1651
1652 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1653
1654 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1655 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1656
1657 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1658
1659 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1660
1661 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1662
1663 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1664 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1665
1666 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1667
1668 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1669 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1670 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1671 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1672 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1673 multiple purposes.
1674
1675 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1676
1677 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1678 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1679 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1680
1681 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1682 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1683 config.guess.
1684
1685 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1686
1687 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1688 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1689 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1690
1691 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1692
1693 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1694 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1695
1696 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1697
1698 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1699 distributed.
1700
1701 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1702 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1703
1704 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1705 macros, regardless of platform.
1706
1707 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1708 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1709
1710 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1711 with x-conversions=gzip.
1712
1713 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1714
1715 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1716 post.c.
1717
1718 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1719 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1720 implicit definition of ioctl().
1721
1722 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1723 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1724 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1725 want to mess with them.
1726
1727 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1728
1729 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1730 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1731
1732 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1733 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1734
1735 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1736 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1737 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1738
1739 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1740 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1741 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1742
1743 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1744 function initgroups.
1745
1746 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1747 function.
1748
1749 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1750 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1751 to fix warnings.
1752
1753 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1754 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1755 prevent warnings.
1756
1757 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1758 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1759 statements).
1760
1761
1762 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1763
1764 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1765 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1766 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1767
1768 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1769 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1770
1771 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1772
1773 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1774
1775 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1776 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1777 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1778 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1779
1780 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1781 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1782
1783 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1784
1785 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1786
1787 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1788
1789 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1790 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1791
1792 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1793
1794 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1795 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1796
1797 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1798 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1799 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1800 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1801
1802 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1803 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1804
1805 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1806
1807 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1808 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1809
1810 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1811
1812 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1813 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1814 proper #defines.
1815
1816 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1817
1818 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1819
1820 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1821
1822 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1823 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1824
1825 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1826 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1827 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1828
1829 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1830 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1831 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1832
1833 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1834 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1835 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1836
1837 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1838 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1839 <swb@nconnect.net>.
1840
1841 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1842 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1843
1844 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1845 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1846
1847 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1848 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1849
1850 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1851 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1852 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1853
1854 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1855 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1856
1857 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1858 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1859 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1860
1861 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1862 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1863 <rmg@netapp.com>.
1864
1865 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1866 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1867
1868 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1869 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1870 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1871 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1872
1873 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1874 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1875
1876 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1877
1878 * Released nmh-1.0.
1879
1880 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1881 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1882 would not be changed.
1883
1884 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1885 one from the Apache web server.
1886
1887 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1888 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1889
1890 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1891 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1892 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1893
1894 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1895
1896 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1897
1898 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1899 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1900 verbose printing).
1901
1902 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1903 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1904 removes a bad race condition.
1905
1906 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1907 style drop file.
1908
1909 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1910 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1911 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1912
1913 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1914 sequence information.
1915
1916 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1917 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1918
1919 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1920 count.
1921
1922 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1923 is empty.
1924
1925 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1926
1927 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1928 interpret 034 as octal.
1929
1930 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1931
1932 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1933 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1934
1935 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1936 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1937
1938 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1939 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1940
1941 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1942 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1943
1944 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1945 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1946
1947 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1948 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1949 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1950
1951 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1952 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1953 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1954
1955 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1956
1957 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1958
1959 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1960 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1961 file "mhoutsbr.c".
1962
1963 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1964
1965 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1966 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1967
1968 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1969 header field information.
1970
1971 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1972 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1973
1974 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1975 values when parsing a content.
1976
1977 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1978 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1979
1980 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1981 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1982
1983 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1984 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1985
1986 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1987 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1988
1989 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1990
1991 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1992
1993 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1994
1995 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1996
1997 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1998 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1999 read.
2000
2001 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2002 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2003
2004 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2005 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2006 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2007 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2008 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2009 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2010 be setuid/setgid.
2011
2012 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2013
2014 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2015 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2016 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2017
2018 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2019 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2020
2021 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2022
2023 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2024 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2025 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2026 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2027
2028 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2029 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2030 fix).
2031
2032 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2033 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2034 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2035 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2036 arguments.
2037
2038 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2039
2040 * Released nmh-0.27.
2041
2042 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2043 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2044
2045 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2046 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2047 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2048 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2049 with no arguments.
2050
2051 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2052 mhbuild returns an error.
2053
2054 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2055 rename the draft file.
2056
2057 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2058 use a global variable.
2059
2060 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2061 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2062
2063 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2064 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2065
2066 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2067 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2068 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2069
2070 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2071 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2072
2073 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2074 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2075 this new page.
2076
2077 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2078 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2079 viamail program.
2080
2081 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2082 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2083
2084 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2085 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2086 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2087
2088 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2089 to new function output_content_folder.
2090
2091 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2092 new function output_content_file.
2093
2094 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2095 to new function parse_format_string.
2096
2097 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2098 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2099 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2100 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2101
2102 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2103 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2104 message/external file from ftp.
2105
2106 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2107 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2108 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2109
2110 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2111 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2112 mhfree.c.
2113
2114 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2115 file mhshowsbr.c.
2116
2117 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2118 new file mhstoresbr.c
2119
2120 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2121 file mhparse.c.
2122
2123 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2124 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2125
2126 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2127 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2128
2129 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2130 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2131 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2132
2133 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2134
2135 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2136
2137 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2138 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2139 to main().
2140
2141 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2142 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2143
2144 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2145 to mhparse.c).
2146
2147 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2148
2149 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2150
2151 * Released nmh-0.26.
2152
2153 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2154 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2155 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2156 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2157
2158 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2159 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2160 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2161 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2162 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2163
2164 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2165 But it is not on by default.
2166
2167 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2168 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2169
2170 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2171
2172 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2173
2174 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2175
2176 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2177
2178 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2179 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2180
2181 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2182
2183 * Released nmh-0.25.
2184
2185 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2186 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2187 uses the original name of the library.
2188
2189 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2190 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2191 links remaining.
2192
2193 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2194 list_content and list_debug.
2195
2196 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2197
2198 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2199 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2200
2201 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2202
2203 * Released nmh-0.24.
2204
2205 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2206
2207 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2208 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2209
2210 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2211 large sequence line.
2212
2213 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2214
2215 * Released nmh-0.23.
2216
2217 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2218
2219 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2220 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2221 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2222 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2223
2224 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2225 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2226 file h/mhnsbr.h.
2227
2228 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2229
2230 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2231
2232 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2233
2234 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2235 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2236
2237 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2238 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2239
2240 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2241 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2242
2243 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2244 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2245
2246 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2247
2248 * Released nmh-0.22.
2249
2250 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2251 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2252
2253 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2254
2255 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2256 mh-profile(5) man page.
2257
2258 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2259 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2260
2261 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2262
2263 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2264
2265 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2266 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2267
2268 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2269
2270 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2271 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2272 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2273
2274 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2275 source message on the standard input.
2276
2277 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2278
2279 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2280 rather than -rfc934mode.
2281
2282 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2283 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2284 only one message.
2285
2286 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2287 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2288
2289 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2290 it is still needed.
2291
2292 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2293
2294 * Released nmh-0.21.
2295
2296 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2297 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2298
2299 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2300 encoding to use.
2301
2302 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2303 to use for text contents.
2304
2305 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2306
2307 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2308
2309 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2310
2311 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2312
2313 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2314 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2315
2316 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2317 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2318 spaces between encoded word are.
2319
2320 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2321
2322 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2323 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2324
2325 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2326 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2327 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2328
2329 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2330
2331 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2332 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2333
2334 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2335
2336 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2337
2338 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2339 ISO-8859-X character set.
2340
2341 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2342 pager more.
2343
2344 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2345 permissions, not write permissions.
2346
2347 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2348 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2349
2350 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2351 distribution.
2352
2353 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2354
2355 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2356
2357 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2358 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2359
2360 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2361 message contains valid character set.
2362
2363 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2364 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2365
2366 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2367 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2368
2369 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2370 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2371 between an encoded word and normal text.
2372
2373 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2374 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2375
2376 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2377 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2378
2379 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2380 and -help.
2381
2382 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2383 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2384 loops).
2385
2386 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2387 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2388
2389 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2390 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2391
2392 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2393
2394 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2395
2396 * Released nmh-0.20.
2397
2398 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2399
2400 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2401
2402 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2403 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2404 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2405
2406 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2407 and the To: line was missing.
2408
2409 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2410
2411 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2412
2413 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2414
2415 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2416 watch the POP transaction.
2417
2418 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2419 first, and use it if available.
2420
2421 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2422 first, and use it if available.
2423
2424 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2425
2426 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2427
2428 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2429 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2430 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2431 sequence line.
2432
2433 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2434 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2435 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2436
2437 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2438 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2439 lines.
2440
2441 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2442
2443 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2444 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2445
2446 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2447
2448 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2449 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2450
2451 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2452 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2453 message to which you are replying.
2454
2455 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2456 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2457 making group replies.
2458
2459 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2460
2461 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2462
2463 * Released nmh-0.19.
2464
2465 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2466 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2467
2468 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2469 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2470 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2471 to the end of the man page.
2472
2473 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2474 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2475 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2476 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2477 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2478 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2479
2480 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2481 pages.
2482
2483 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2484 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2485 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2486
2487 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2488 the next available number above the message number you wish
2489 to preserve.
2490
2491 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2492 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2493
2494 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2495 file sbr/seq_print.c
2496
2497 * flist will now update the current folder.
2498
2499 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2500 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2501 but now undocumented.
2502
2503 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2504 traversing folders.
2505
2506 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2507 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2508
2509 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2510
2511 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2512 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2513
2514 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2515
2516 * Released nmh-0.18.
2517
2518 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2519 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2520 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2521
2522 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2523 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2524
2525 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2526 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2527 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2528 previous public/private status.
2529
2530 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2531 correctly.
2532
2533 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2534 private sequences).
2535
2536 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2537 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2538 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2539
2540 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2541 take option to determine whether it should get current
2542 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2543 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2544
2545 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2546
2547 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2548 wait for stopped processes.
2549
2550 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2551 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2552
2553 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2554
2555 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2556
2557 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2558 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2559
2560 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2561 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2562
2563 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2564 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2565 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2566 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2567
2568 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2569 status allocation).
2570
2571 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2572 the code.
2573
2574 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2575
2576 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2577 the debugging output.
2578
2579 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2580 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2581
2582 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2583
2584 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2585
2586 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2587 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2588
2589 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2590
2591 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2592 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2593 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2594 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2595 in the given sequence.
2596
2597 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2598 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2599 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2600 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2601 subdirectories of a given directory.
2602
2603 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2604 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2605 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2606
2607 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2608 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2609
2610 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2611
2612 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2613 to 0700 (was 0711).
2614
2615 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2616 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2617 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2618
2619 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2620 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2621 are calculated at runtime.
2622
2623 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2624
2625 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2626
2627 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2628 about checking for global mh.profile.
2629
2630 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2631 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2632 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2633 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2634 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2635 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2636
2637 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2638 adding message to folder itself.
2639
2640 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2641 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2642 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2643 instead of exiting.
2644
2645 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2646 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2647 the error EEXIST.
2648
2649 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2650 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2651 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2652
2653 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2654 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2655
2656 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2657 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2658 code to use it yet).
2659
2660 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2661
2662 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2663
2664 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2665 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2666
2667 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2668 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2669
2670 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2671
2672 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2673 to folder_addmsg.c
2674
2675 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2676
2677 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2678
2679 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2680
2681 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2682
2683 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2684 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2685
2686 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2687
2688 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2689
2690 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2691
2692 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2693
2694 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2695
2696 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2697 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2698
2699 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2700 configuration files.
2701
2702 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2703
2704 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2705
2706 * Released nmh-0.17.
2707
2708 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2709
2710 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2711 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2712
2713 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2714 defined.
2715
2716 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2717 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2718
2719 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2720 number of refiled message.
2721
2722 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2723
2724 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2725 for return value of wait().
2726
2727 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2728
2729 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2730
2731 * Released nmh-0.16.
2732
2733 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2734
2735 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2736
2737 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2738 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2739 deal with binary messages, yet).
2740
2741 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2742
2743 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2744
2745 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2746 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2747 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2748 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2749 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2750 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2751
2752 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2753 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2754
2755 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2756 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2757
2758 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2759 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2760 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2761
2762 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2763
2764 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2765
2766 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2767 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2768 composition files.
2769
2770 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2771 files.
2772
2773 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2774
2775 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2776 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2777 which used unsigned chars by default.
2778
2779 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2780
2781 * Released nmh-0.15.
2782
2783 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2784 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2785
2786 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2787
2788 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2789
2790 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2791 return 0.
2792
2793 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2794 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2795 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2796
2797 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2798 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2799
2800 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2801
2802 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2803 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2804
2805 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2806 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2807 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2808 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2809
2810 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2811 and put in own subroutine.
2812
2813 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2814 and put in own subroutine.
2815
2816 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2817 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2818 refile.c to use new routine.
2819
2820 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2821
2822 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2823
2824 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2825 seq_getnum.
2826
2827 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2828 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2829 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2830
2831 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2832 no longer used.
2833
2834 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2835 adding message to sequence.
2836
2837 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2838 corresponding file in sbr.
2839
2840 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2841 file in sbr.
2842
2843 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2844
2845 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2846 all selected messages from a sequence.
2847
2848 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2849 selected messages to a sequence.
2850
2851 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2852 and m_seqok.c.
2853
2854 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2855
2856 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2857 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2858
2859 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2860
2861 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2862 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2863
2864 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2865
2866 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2867 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2868
2869 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2870
2871 * Released nmh-0.14.
2872
2873 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2874 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2875
2876 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2877
2878 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2879 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2880 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2881 environment variable.
2882
2883 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2884 draft folder facility in nmh.
2885
2886 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2887 to fmt_compile.h.
2888
2889 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2890 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2891 fmt_addr.c.
2892
2893 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2894 options.

2897
2898 * Released nmh-0.13.
2899
2900 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2901 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2902 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2903 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2904 to MAXARGS).
2905
2906 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2907 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2908
2909 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2910
2911 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2912 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2913
2914 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2915
2916 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2917 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

2927 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2928
2929 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2930 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2931
2932 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2933 mp->attrstats with macros.
2934
2935 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2936 in msh.c instead.
2937
2938 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2939 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2940
2941 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2942 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2943
2944 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2945 will suppress the display of the message header.
2946
2947 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2948
2949 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2950 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2951
2952 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2953
2954 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2955

2957
2958 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2959 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2960
2961 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2962 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2963
2964 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2965
2966 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2967
2968 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2969 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2970
2971 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2972 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2982
2983 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2984
2985 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2986 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2987
2988 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2989 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2990
2991 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2992 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.

2994 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2995
2996 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2997 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2998

3000
3001 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
3002 of missing tabs in regex.

3016
3017 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3018
3019 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
3020 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
3021
3022 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3023
3024 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3025
3026 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3027 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3028
3029 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3030
3031 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3032 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3033
3034 * Released nmh-0.08.
3035
3036 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3037 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3038 locking database itself.
3039
3040 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3041
3042 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3043
3044 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3045 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3046 option.
3047
3048 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3049 rather than mmdf format.
3050
3051 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3052 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3053 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3054 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3055
3056 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3057
3058 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3059
3060 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3061 added to packf.
3062
3063 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3064 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3065 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3066
3067 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3068 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3069 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3070
3071 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3072
3073 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3074 can still easily change this in config.h).
3075
3076 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3077 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3078 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3079
3080 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3081
3082 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3083 than tzset and external timezone variable.

3096 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3097 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3098
3099 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3100 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3101 on SCO 5.x.
3102
3103 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3104 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3105
3106 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3107 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3108
3109 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3110
3111 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3112
3113 * Added configure check for tzset.
3114
3115 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3116
3117 * Released nmh-0.06.
3118
3119 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3120 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3121
3122 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3123 many such machines around anymore.
3124
3125 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3126 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3127
3128 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3129 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3130
3131 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3134 pre-generated version if necessary.
3135
3136 * Released nmh-0.05.
3137
3138 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3139 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3140 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3141 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3142
3143 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3144 be linked in one pass.
3145
3146 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3147
3148 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3149 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3150
3151 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3152
3153 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3154
3155 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3156
3157 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3158 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3159 become the current folder.
3160
3161 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3162
3163 * Released nmh-0.04.

3167
3168 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3169
3170 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3171 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3172 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3173
3174 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3175
3176 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3177 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3178
3179 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3180
3181 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3182 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3183 using POP.
3184
3185 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3186 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3187
3188 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3189
3190 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3191 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3192 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3193 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3194 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3195 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3196
3197 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3198
3199 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3200 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3201
3202 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3203 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3204
3205 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3206
3207 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3208 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3209
3210 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3211
3212 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3213 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3214 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3215
3216 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3217
3218 * Released nmh-0.03.
3219
3220 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3221 .mh_sequence file existed.
3222
3223 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3224 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3225
3226 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3227 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3228 man page.
3229
3230 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3231

3233 flist man page.
3234
3235 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3236
3237 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3238 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3239 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3240
3241 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3242
3243 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3244 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3245 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3246
3247 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3248
3249 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL

3251
3252 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3253
3254 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3255
3256 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3257 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3258 directory from where the source code is located.
3259

3279
3280 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3281
3282 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3283 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3284 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3285 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3286 rather than in script.
3287
3288 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3289
3290 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3291
3292 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

3294
3295 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3296
3297 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3298 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3299
3300 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3301 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3302 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3303 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3304 options if enabled.
3305
3306 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3307
3308 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3309 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3310
3311 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3312 correctly found.
3313
3314 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3315
3316 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3317

3322
3323 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3324 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3325
3326 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3327
3328 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3329 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3330 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3331 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3332 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3333 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3334
3335 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3336

3338
3339 * Released nmh-0.01.
3340

3342 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3343 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3344 have POSIX signals.
3345
3346 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3365 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3366 speed up -recurse option.
3367
3368 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3369 yet, but it compiles :-)
3370
3371 * Changed default location for install to
3372 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3373 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3374 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3375 level Makefile.
3376
3377 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3378 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3379 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
