1 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
3 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
6 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
8 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
9 19xx when it's not necessary.
11 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
13 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
14 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
17 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
18 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
19 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
20 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
21 the man pages correctly.
23 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
25 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
27 * Finished manpages ali-prev
29 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
30 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
31 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
34 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
35 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
36 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
37 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
39 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
41 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
42 the formatting rules I've been using.
46 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
48 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
49 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
52 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
53 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
54 read in the contents of the file as the variable
57 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
58 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
59 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
60 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
61 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
62 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
63 bold flags and italicized parameters.
65 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
67 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
68 --with-locking option.
70 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
71 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
72 information was not being communicated to the
73 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
74 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
75 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
76 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
77 undefined symbols problems.
79 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
80 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
81 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
82 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
83 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
84 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
85 for a genuine krb4 installation.
87 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
89 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
90 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
92 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
94 * Made a new ./configure option called
95 "--with-locking" that allows the file
96 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
97 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
99 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
100 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
101 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
102 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
103 the user that these are the valid options, and
104 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
107 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
109 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
110 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
111 committed to supporting flex only, since
112 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
113 string, as well as other problems documented
114 below and on nmh-workers.
116 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
117 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
118 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
121 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
122 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
124 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
126 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
127 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
128 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
130 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
132 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
133 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
135 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
137 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
138 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
139 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
140 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
141 couldn't correctly identify them.
143 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
145 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
146 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
147 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
148 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
149 not depending on an external archive.
151 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
152 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
153 mts/generic is no longer built.
155 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
157 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
158 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
159 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
160 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
161 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
162 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
163 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
164 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
166 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
168 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
169 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
172 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
174 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
175 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
176 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
179 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
180 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
181 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
182 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
184 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
185 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
186 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
187 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
188 merged into the smtp code).
190 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
191 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
192 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
195 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
196 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
197 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
198 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
199 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
200 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
201 in the appropriate Makefile.in
203 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
205 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
206 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
207 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
208 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
209 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
210 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
211 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
212 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
213 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
214 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
215 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
217 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
219 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
220 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
221 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
222 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
223 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
224 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
225 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
226 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
227 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
229 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
231 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
232 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
235 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
237 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
238 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
240 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
242 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
243 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
244 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
245 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
247 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
249 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
250 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
251 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
252 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
253 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
255 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
256 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
258 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
260 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
262 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
263 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
264 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
265 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
267 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
268 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
269 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
270 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
272 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
273 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
274 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
275 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
277 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
278 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
279 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
281 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
283 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
284 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
285 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
286 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
287 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
288 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
291 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
292 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
294 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
295 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
297 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
299 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
301 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
303 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
304 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
305 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
306 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
308 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
310 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
311 be easily changed from "," to "#".
313 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
315 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
317 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
318 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
321 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
323 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
324 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
325 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
326 but not for the subsequent data stream.
328 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
330 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
331 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
332 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
333 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
334 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
336 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
338 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
339 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
341 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
342 cat, also define lorder as echo.
344 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
346 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
348 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
349 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
350 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
352 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
354 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
357 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
358 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
360 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
362 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
363 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
365 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
367 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
368 inc does not need to be setgid.
370 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
372 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
373 library, as found on Debian systems.
375 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
377 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
379 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
380 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
381 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
382 case-insensitivity flag.
384 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
386 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
387 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
389 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
391 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
392 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
393 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
394 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
395 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
396 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
397 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
398 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
399 getting moved aside).
401 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
402 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
404 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
406 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
407 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
408 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
409 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
410 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
411 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
412 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
413 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
414 the prototype, but never sets it.
416 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
417 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
418 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
419 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
420 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
421 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
423 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
424 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
425 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
426 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
427 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
429 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
431 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
432 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
435 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
436 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
437 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
438 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
439 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
440 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
441 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
443 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
445 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
447 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
448 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
449 this works on other systems.
451 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
453 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
454 checks for write failures.
456 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
458 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
460 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
463 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
465 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
467 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
469 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
470 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
473 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
475 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
476 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
477 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
478 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
480 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
482 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
483 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
486 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
487 as well as Makefiles.
489 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
491 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
492 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
493 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
494 should make maintainability easier.
496 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
497 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
498 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
499 whatever you know works.
501 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
503 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
504 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
505 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
507 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
508 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
509 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
510 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
512 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
513 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
514 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
516 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
517 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
518 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
519 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
520 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
522 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
523 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
524 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
525 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
526 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
527 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
528 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
529 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
530 from the BSD version.
532 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
533 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
534 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
536 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
539 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
542 This happens on solaris:
545 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
546 No manual entry for mts.conf.
550 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
552 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
553 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
555 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
557 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
558 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
559 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
560 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
561 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
562 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
563 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
564 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
565 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
566 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
567 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
569 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
570 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
571 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
572 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
573 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
574 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
577 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
578 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
579 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
580 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
581 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
583 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
584 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
586 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
588 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
589 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
590 to stdin, such as exmh.
592 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
593 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
594 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
597 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
599 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
600 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
601 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
602 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
603 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
604 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
605 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
607 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
609 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
610 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
612 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
614 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
615 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
617 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
619 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
622 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
623 along with any -host or -user option.
625 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
627 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
629 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
630 process was fresh in my mind.
632 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
634 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
635 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
637 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
639 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
641 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
644 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
645 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
646 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
647 part of the program's name.
649 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
650 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
653 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
655 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
656 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
657 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
658 single-character format would cause programs using this
659 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
660 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
661 when the format string was one character. This eventually
662 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
665 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
667 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
668 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
669 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
670 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
671 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
672 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
674 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
675 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
676 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
677 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
678 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
679 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
680 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
681 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
683 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
684 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
685 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
686 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
687 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
688 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
689 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
690 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
691 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
692 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
694 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
696 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
697 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
699 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
700 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
702 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
707 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
709 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
710 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
711 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
712 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
714 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
715 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
716 problem in the routine.
718 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
720 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
721 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
723 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
724 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
725 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
728 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
730 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
731 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
732 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
733 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
734 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
735 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
736 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
737 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
738 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
739 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
741 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
743 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
744 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
745 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
746 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
747 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
748 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
749 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
750 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
751 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
752 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
753 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
754 interesting than a duplication of the default.
756 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
757 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
758 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
759 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
760 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
762 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
765 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
767 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
768 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
769 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
770 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
773 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
775 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
777 * Applied, after some finessing,
778 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
780 Here's a patch that allows you to add
782 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
784 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
785 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
786 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
787 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
789 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
791 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
792 forgetting to do so!).
794 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
795 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
796 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
797 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
798 arguments to enable all three types.
800 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
801 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
803 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
804 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
805 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
806 updated copy of mts.conf.
808 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
810 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
811 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
812 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
814 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
816 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
818 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
819 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
820 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
822 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
823 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
824 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
826 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
827 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
828 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
830 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
832 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
834 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
836 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
838 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
839 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
841 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
842 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
843 certain suffix to run properly.
845 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
846 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
847 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
849 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
850 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
851 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
852 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
853 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
854 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
855 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
857 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
859 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
860 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
861 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
862 until some year far in the future).
864 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
866 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
868 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
869 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
871 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
872 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
875 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
877 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
878 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
879 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
880 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
881 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
882 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
884 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
886 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
888 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
889 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
890 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
892 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
893 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
894 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
895 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
896 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
897 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
900 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
901 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
902 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
903 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
904 of masquerading individually.
906 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
907 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
908 GECOS field delimiters.
910 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
912 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
913 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
914 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
915 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
916 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
917 and explaining the feature.
919 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
921 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
922 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
925 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
926 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
927 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
929 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
930 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
931 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
932 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
934 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
935 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
936 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
939 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
941 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
944 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
946 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
948 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
949 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
950 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
951 quotes embedded in them.
953 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
955 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
956 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
957 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
958 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
959 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
960 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
961 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
964 The other theory is that because you can say something like
965 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
966 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
967 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
968 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
970 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
972 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
974 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
975 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
976 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
977 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
979 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
982 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
984 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
986 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
988 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
989 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
990 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
992 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
995 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
997 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
998 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
999 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1000 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1001 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1002 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1004 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1005 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1007 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1009 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1012 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1014 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1015 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1016 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1019 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1020 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1021 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1022 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1023 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1024 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1025 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1026 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1027 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1028 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1029 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1030 processing that post has).
1032 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1034 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1035 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1036 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1037 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1038 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1039 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1042 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1044 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1046 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1048 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1050 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1051 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1053 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1056 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1058 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1059 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1060 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1063 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1065 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1066 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1067 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1068 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1069 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1070 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1072 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1074 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1076 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1078 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1079 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1080 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1081 caught again. This works for now.
1083 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1085 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1087 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1088 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1090 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1092 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1093 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1095 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1097 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1099 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1101 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1102 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1104 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1106 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1107 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1108 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1109 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1110 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1113 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1115 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1116 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1117 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1119 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1120 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1123 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1125 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1126 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1127 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1129 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1131 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1132 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1134 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1136 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1139 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1140 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1142 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1143 macros, regardless of platform.
1145 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1146 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1148 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1149 with x-conversions=gzip.
1151 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1153 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1156 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1157 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1158 implicit definition of ioctl().
1160 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1161 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1162 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1163 want to mess with them.
1165 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1167 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1168 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1170 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1171 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1173 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1174 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1175 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1177 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1178 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1179 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1181 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1182 function initgroups.
1184 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1187 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1188 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1191 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1192 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1195 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1196 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1200 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1202 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1203 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1204 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1206 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1207 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1209 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1211 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1213 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1214 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1215 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1216 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1218 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1219 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1221 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1223 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1225 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1227 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1228 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1230 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1232 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1233 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1235 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1236 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1237 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1238 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1240 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1241 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1243 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1245 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1246 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1248 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1250 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1251 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1254 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1256 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1258 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1260 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1261 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1263 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1264 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1265 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1267 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1268 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1269 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1271 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1272 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1273 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1275 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1276 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1279 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1280 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1282 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1283 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1285 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1286 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1288 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1289 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1290 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1292 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1293 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1295 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1296 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1297 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1299 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1300 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1303 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1304 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1306 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1307 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1308 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1309 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1311 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1312 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1314 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1318 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1319 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1320 would not be changed.
1322 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1323 one from the Apache web server.
1325 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1326 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1328 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1329 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1330 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1332 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1334 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1336 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1337 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1340 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1341 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1342 removes a bad race condition.
1344 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1347 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1348 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1349 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1351 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1352 sequence information.
1354 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1355 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1357 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1360 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1363 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1365 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1366 interpret 034 as octal.
1368 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1370 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1371 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1373 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1374 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1376 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1377 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1379 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1380 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1382 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1383 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1385 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1386 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1387 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1389 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1390 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1391 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1393 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1395 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1397 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1398 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1401 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1403 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1404 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1406 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1407 header field information.
1409 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1410 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1412 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1413 values when parsing a content.
1415 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1416 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1418 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1419 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1421 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1422 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1424 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1425 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1427 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1429 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1431 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1433 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1435 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1436 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1439 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1440 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1442 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1443 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1444 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1445 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1446 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1447 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1450 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1452 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1453 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1454 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1456 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1457 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1459 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1461 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1462 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1463 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1464 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1466 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1467 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1470 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1471 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1472 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1473 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1476 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1478 * Released nmh-0.27.
1480 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1481 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1483 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1484 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1485 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1486 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1489 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1490 mhbuild returns an error.
1492 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1493 rename the draft file.
1495 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1496 use a global variable.
1498 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1499 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1501 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1502 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1504 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1505 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1506 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1508 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1509 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1511 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1512 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1515 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1516 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1519 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1520 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1522 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1523 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1524 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1526 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1527 to new function output_content_folder.
1529 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1530 new function output_content_file.
1532 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1533 to new function parse_format_string.
1535 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1536 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1537 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1538 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1540 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1541 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1542 message/external file from ftp.
1544 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1545 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1546 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1548 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1549 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1552 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1555 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1556 new file mhstoresbr.c
1558 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1561 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1562 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1564 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1565 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1567 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1568 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1569 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1571 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1573 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1575 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1576 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1579 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1580 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1582 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1585 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1587 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1589 * Released nmh-0.26.
1591 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1592 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1593 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1594 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1596 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1597 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1598 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1599 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1600 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1602 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1603 But it is not on by default.
1605 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1606 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1608 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1610 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1612 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1614 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1616 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1617 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1619 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1621 * Released nmh-0.25.
1623 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1624 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1625 uses the original name of the library.
1627 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1628 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1631 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1632 list_content and list_debug.
1634 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1636 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1637 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1639 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1641 * Released nmh-0.24.
1643 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1645 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1646 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1648 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1649 large sequence line.
1651 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1653 * Released nmh-0.23.
1655 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1657 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1658 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1659 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1660 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1662 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1663 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1666 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1668 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1670 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1672 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1673 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1675 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1676 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1678 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1679 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1681 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1682 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1684 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1686 * Released nmh-0.22.
1688 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1689 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1691 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1693 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1694 mh-profile(5) man page.
1696 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1697 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1699 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1701 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1703 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1704 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1706 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1708 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1709 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1710 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1712 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1713 source message on the standard input.
1715 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1717 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1718 rather than -rfc934mode.
1720 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1721 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1724 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1725 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1727 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1730 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1732 * Released nmh-0.21.
1734 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1735 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1737 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1740 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1741 to use for text contents.
1743 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1745 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1747 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1749 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1751 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1752 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1754 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1755 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1756 spaces between encoded word are.
1758 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1760 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1761 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1763 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1764 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1765 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1767 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1769 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1770 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1772 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1774 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1776 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1777 ISO-8859-X character set.
1779 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1782 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1783 permissions, not write permissions.
1785 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1786 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1788 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1791 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1793 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1795 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1796 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1798 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1799 message contains valid character set.
1801 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1802 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1804 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1805 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1807 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1808 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1809 between an encoded word and normal text.
1811 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1812 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1814 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1815 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1817 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1820 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1821 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1824 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1825 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1827 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1828 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1830 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1832 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1834 * Released nmh-0.20.
1836 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1838 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1840 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1841 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1842 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1844 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1845 and the To: line was missing.
1847 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1849 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1851 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1853 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1854 watch the POP transaction.
1856 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1857 first, and use it if available.
1859 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1860 first, and use it if available.
1862 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1864 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1866 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1867 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1868 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1871 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1872 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1873 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1875 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1876 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1879 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1881 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1882 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1884 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1886 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1887 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1889 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1890 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1891 message to which you are replying.
1893 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1894 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1895 making group replies.
1897 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1899 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1901 * Released nmh-0.19.
1903 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1904 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1906 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1907 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1908 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1909 to the end of the man page.
1911 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1912 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1913 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1914 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1915 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1916 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1918 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1921 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1922 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1923 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1925 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1926 the next available number above the message number you wish
1929 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1930 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1932 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1933 file sbr/seq_print.c
1935 * flist will now update the current folder.
1937 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1938 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1939 but now undocumented.
1941 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1944 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1945 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1947 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1949 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1950 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1952 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1954 * Released nmh-0.18.
1956 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1957 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1958 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1960 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1961 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1963 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1964 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1965 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1966 previous public/private status.
1968 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1971 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1974 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1975 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1976 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1978 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1979 take option to determine whether it should get current
1980 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1981 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1983 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1985 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1986 wait for stopped processes.
1988 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1989 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1991 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1993 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1995 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1996 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1998 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1999 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2001 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2002 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2003 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2004 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2006 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2009 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2012 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2014 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2015 the debugging output.
2017 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2018 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2020 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2022 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2024 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2025 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2027 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2029 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2030 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2031 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2032 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2033 in the given sequence.
2035 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2036 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2037 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2038 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2039 subdirectories of a given directory.
2041 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2042 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2043 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2045 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2046 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2048 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2050 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2053 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2054 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2055 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2057 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2058 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2059 are calculated at runtime.
2061 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2063 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2065 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2066 about checking for global mh.profile.
2068 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2069 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2070 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2071 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2072 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2073 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2075 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2076 adding message to folder itself.
2078 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2079 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2080 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2083 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2084 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2087 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2088 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2089 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2091 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2092 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2094 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2095 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2096 code to use it yet).
2098 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2100 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2102 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2103 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2105 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2106 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2108 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2110 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2113 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2115 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2117 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2119 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2121 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2122 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2124 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2126 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2128 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2130 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2132 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2134 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2135 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2137 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2138 configuration files.
2140 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2142 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2144 * Released nmh-0.17.
2146 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2148 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2149 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2151 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2154 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2155 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2157 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2158 number of refiled message.
2160 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2162 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2163 for return value of wait().
2165 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2167 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2169 * Released nmh-0.16.
2171 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2173 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2175 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2176 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2177 deal with binary messages, yet).
2179 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2181 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2183 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2184 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2185 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2186 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2187 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2188 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2190 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2191 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2193 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2194 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2196 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2197 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2200 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2202 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2204 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2205 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2208 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2211 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2213 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2214 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2215 which used unsigned chars by default.
2217 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2219 * Released nmh-0.15.
2221 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2222 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2224 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2226 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2228 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2231 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2232 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2233 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2235 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2236 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2238 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2240 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2241 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2243 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2244 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2245 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2246 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2248 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2249 and put in own subroutine.
2251 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2252 and put in own subroutine.
2254 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2255 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2256 refile.c to use new routine.
2258 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2260 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2262 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2265 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2266 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2267 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2269 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2272 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2273 adding message to sequence.
2275 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2276 corresponding file in sbr.
2278 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2281 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2283 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2284 all selected messages from a sequence.
2286 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2287 selected messages to a sequence.
2289 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2292 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2294 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2295 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2297 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2299 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2300 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2302 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2304 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from

2341 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2344 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2345 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2347 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2349 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if

2383 will suppress the display of the message header.
2385 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2387 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2390 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2392 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2394 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h

2404 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2406 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2407 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2409 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2410 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2434 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2435 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2437 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2439 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

2469 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2470 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2472 * Released nmh-0.08.
2474 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2475 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2476 locking database itself.

2480 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2482 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2483 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2486 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2487 rather than mmdf format.
2489 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2490 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2491 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2492 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2494 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2496 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2498 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2501 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2502 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2503 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2505 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2506 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2507 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2509 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2511 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2512 can still easily change this in config.h).
2514 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2515 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2516 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2518 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2520 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2532 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2534 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2535 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2537 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2538 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2541 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2542 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2544 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2545 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2547 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.

2555 * Released nmh-0.06.
2557 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2558 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2560 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2561 many such machines around anymore.
2563 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2564 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2566 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2567 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2569 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2571 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2572 pre-generated version if necessary.
2574 * Released nmh-0.05.
2576 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2577 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2578 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2579 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2581 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2582 be linked in one pass.
2584 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2586 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2587 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2589 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2591 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2593 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2595 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2596 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2597 become the current folder.
2599 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2601 * Released nmh-0.04.
2603 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2606 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2608 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2609 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2610 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2612 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2614 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2615 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2617 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2619 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2620 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2623 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2624 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2626 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2628 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2629 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2630 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2631 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2632 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2633 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2635 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2637 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2638 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2640 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2641 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2643 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2645 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2646 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2648 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2650 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2651 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2652 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2654 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2656 * Released nmh-0.03.
2658 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2659 .mh_sequence file existed.
2661 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2662 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2664 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2665 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2668 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2670 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2673 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2675 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2676 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2677 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2679 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2681 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2682 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2683 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2685 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2687 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2688 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2690 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2692 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2694 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2695 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2696 directory from where the source code is located.
2698 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2700 * Released nmh-0.02.
2702 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2707 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2709 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2710 and sys_nerr directly.

2714 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2716 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2718 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2720 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2721 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2722 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2723 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2724 rather than in script.
2726 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2728 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2730 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2731 macro defined on Solaris.
2733 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2735 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2736 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2738 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2739 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2740 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2741 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2744 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2746 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2747 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2749 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2752 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2754 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2756 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2757 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2759 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2761 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2762 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2764 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2766 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2767 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2768 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2769 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2770 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2771 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2773 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2775 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2777 * Released nmh-0.01.
2779 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2780 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2781 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2784 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2786 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2789 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2791 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2792 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2794 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2796 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2797 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2798 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2799 script to find_program.
2801 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2803 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2804 speed up -recurse option.
2806 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2807 yet, but it compiles :-)
2809 * Changed default location for install to
2810 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2811 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2812 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2815 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2816 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2817 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
