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

2001 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2002 about checking for global mh.profile.
2003
2004 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2005 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2006 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2007 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2008 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2009 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2010
2011 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2012 adding message to folder itself.
2013
2014 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2015 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2016 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2017 instead of exiting.
2018
2019 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2020 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2021 the error EEXIST.
2022
2023 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2024 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2025 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2026
2027 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2028 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2029
2030 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2031 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2032 code to use it yet).
2033
2034 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2035
2036 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2037
2038 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2039 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2040
2041 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2042 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2043
2044 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2045
2046 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2047 to folder_addmsg.c
2048
2049 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2052
2053 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2054
2055 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2056
2057 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2058 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2059

2061
2062 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code

2080 * Released nmh-0.17.
2081
2082 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2083
2084 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2085 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2086
2087 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2088 defined.
2089
2090 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2091 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2092
2093 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2094 number of refiled message.
2095
2096 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.

2108
2109 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2110
2111 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2112 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2113 deal with binary messages, yet).
2114
2115 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2116
2117 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2118
2119 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2120 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2121 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2122 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2123 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2124 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2125
2126 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2127 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2128
2129 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2130 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2131
2132 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2133 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and

2135
2136 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2137
2138 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2139

2141 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2142 composition files.
2143
2144 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2145 files.
2146
2147 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2148
2149 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2150 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2151 which used unsigned chars by default.
2152
2153 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2154
2155 * Released nmh-0.15.
2156
2157 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2158 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2159
2160 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2161
2162 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2163
2164 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2165 return 0.
2166
2167 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2168 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2169 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2170
2171 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2172 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2173
2174 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2175
2176 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2177 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2178
2179 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2180 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2181 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2182 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2183
2184 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2185 and put in own subroutine.
2186
2187 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2188 and put in own subroutine.
2189
2190 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2191 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2192 refile.c to use new routine.

2199 seq_getnum.
2200
2201 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2202 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2203 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2204
2205 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2206 no longer used.
2207
2208 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2209 adding message to sequence.
2210
2211 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2212 corresponding file in sbr.
2213
2214 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2215 file in sbr.
2216
2217 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2218
2219 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2220 all selected messages from a sequence.
2221
2222 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2223 selected messages to a sequence.
2224
2225 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,

2248 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2249
2250 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2251
2252 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2253 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2254 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2255 environment variable.
2256
2257 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2258 draft folder facility in nmh.
2259
2260 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2261 to fmt_compile.h.
2262

2267 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2268 options.
2269

2271
2272 * Released nmh-0.13.
2273
2274 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2275 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2276 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2277 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2278 to MAXARGS).
2279
2280 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2281 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2282
2283 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2284
2285 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2286 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2287
2288 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2289
2290 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2291 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2292
2293 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2294
2295 * Released nmh-0.12.

2300
2301 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2302
2303 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2304 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2305
2306 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2307 mp->attrstats with macros.
2308
2309 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2310 in msh.c instead.
2311
2312 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2313 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2314
2315 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2316 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2317
2318 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2319 will suppress the display of the message header.
2320
2321 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2322
2323 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2324 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2325

2327
2328 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.

2330 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2331
2332 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2333 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2334
2335 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2336 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2337
2338 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2339
2340 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2341
2342 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2343 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2344
2345 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2346 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2362 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2363 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2364
2365 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2366 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2367
2368 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2388
2389 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2390
2391 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2392
2393 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2394 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2395
2396 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2397
2398 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2399
2400 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2401 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2402
2403 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2404
2405 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2406 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2407
2408 * Released nmh-0.08.
2409
2410 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2411 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2412 locking database itself.
2413
2414 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2415
2416 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2417
2418 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2419 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2420 option.
2421
2422 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2423 rather than mmdf format.
2424
2425 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2426 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2427 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2428 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2429
2430 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2431
2432 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2433
2434 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2435 added to packf.
2436
2437 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2438 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2439 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2440
2441 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2442 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2443 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2444
2445 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2446
2447 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2448 can still easily change this in config.h).
2449
2450 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2451 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2452 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2453
2454 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2455
2456 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2457 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2458
2459 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2460
2461 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2462
2463 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
2464 the suffix.
2465
2466 * Released nmh-0.07.
2467
2468 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2469
2470 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2471 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2472
2473 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2474 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2475 on SCO 5.x.
2476
2477 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2478 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2479
2480 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2481 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2482
2483 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2484
2485 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2486
2487 * Added configure check for tzset.
2488
2489 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2490
2491 * Released nmh-0.06.
2492
2493 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2494 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2495
2496 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2497 many such machines around anymore.
2498
2499 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2500 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2501
2502 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2503 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2504
2505 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2506
2507 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2508 pre-generated version if necessary.
2509
2510 * Released nmh-0.05.
2511
2512 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2513 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2514 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2515 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2516
2517 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2518 be linked in one pass.
2519
2520 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2521
2522 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2523 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2524
2525 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2526
2527 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2528
2529 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2530
2531 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2532 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2533 become the current folder.
2534
2535 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2536
2537 * Released nmh-0.04.
2538
2539 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2540 it.
2541
2542 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2543
2544 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2545 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2546 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2547
2548 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2549
2550 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2551 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2552
2553 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2554
2555 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2556 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2557 using POP.
2558
2559 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2560 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2561
2562 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2563
2564 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2565 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2566 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2567 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2568 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2569 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2570
2571 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2572
2573 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2574 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2575
2576 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2577 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2578
2579 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2580
2581 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2582 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2583
2584 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2585
2586 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2587 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2588 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2589
2590 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2591
2592 * Released nmh-0.03.
2593
2594 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2595 .mh_sequence file existed.
2596
2597 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2598 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2599
2600 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2601 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2602 man page.
2603
2604 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2605
2606 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2607 flist man page.
2608
2609 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2610
2611 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2612 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2613 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2614
2615 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2616
2617 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2618 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2619 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2620
2621 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2622
2623 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2624 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2625
2626 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2627
2628 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2629
2630 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2631 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2632 directory from where the source code is located.
2633
2634 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2635
2636 * Released nmh-0.02.
2637
2638 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2639
2640 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
2641 and rcvtty.
2642
2643 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2644
2645 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2646 and sys_nerr directly.
2647
2648 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2649
2650 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2651
2652 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2653
2654 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2655
2656 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2657 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2658 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2659 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2660 rather than in script.
2661
2662 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2663
2664 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2665
2666 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2667 macro defined on Solaris.
2668
2669 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2670
2671 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2672 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2673
2674 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2675 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2676 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2677 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2678 options if enabled.
2679
2680 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2681
2682 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2683 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2684
2685 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2686 correctly found.
2687
2688 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2689
2690 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2691
2692 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2693 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2694
2695 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2696
2697 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2698 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2699
2700 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2701
2702 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2703 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2704 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2705 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2706 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2707 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2708
2709 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2710
2711 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2712
2713 * Released nmh-0.01.
2714
2715 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2716 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2717 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2718 have POSIX signals.
2719
2720 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2721
2722 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2723 their man pages.
2724
2725 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2726
2727 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2728 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2729
2730 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2731
2732 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2733 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2734 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2735 script to find_program.
2736
2737 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2738
2739 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2740 speed up -recurse option.
2741
2742 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2743 yet, but it compiles :-)
2744
2745 * Changed default location for install to
2746 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2747 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2748 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2749 level Makefile.
2750
2751 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2752 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2753 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
