Factor out common code for writing ls shell command. Rework its length
[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
2
3 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
4 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
5 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
6 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
7
8 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
9
10 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
11 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
12
13 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
14 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
15
16 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
17
18 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
19 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
20 the address of a static array.
21
22 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
23
24 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
25 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
26
27 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
28
29 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
30 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
31 This allows users to masquerade with the default
32 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
33 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
34 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
35 etc/mts.conf.
36
37 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
38
39 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
40 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
41 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
42 ruserpass() has a void return type.
43
44 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
45 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
46 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
47 provide memmove() substitute implementation
48
49 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
50 source directory' feature
51
52 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
53 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
54
55 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
56
57 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
58 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
59 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
60 for the patch.
61
62 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
63
64 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
65 is the wrong approach.
66
67 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
68 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
69 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
70 length).
71
72 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
73 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
74 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
75 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
76 broken for continued lines from the server.
77
78 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
79
80 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
81 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
82
83 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
84
85 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
86
87 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
88 been branched off.
89
90 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
91
92 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
93
94 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
95
96 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
97 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
98 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
99 obsolete feature of autoconf
100
101 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
102
103 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
104 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
105 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
106
107 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
108
109 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
110 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
111
112 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
113
114 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
115 multipart messages.
116
117 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
118
119 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
120 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
121 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
122 following done() (should never be reached).
123
124 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
125
126 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
127 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
128
129 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
130
131 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
132 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
133
134 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
135
136 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
137 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
138 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
139 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
140 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
141 acconfig.h if you must.
142
143 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
144
145 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
146 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
147 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
148 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
149
150 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
151
152 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
153 inc sgid.
154
155 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
156
157 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
158 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
159 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
160 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
161 have Content-Disposition.
162
163 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
164
165 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
166 if it isn't valid.
167
168 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
169
170 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
171 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
172
173 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
174
175 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
176 encoded block is empty
177
178 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
179
180 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
181 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
182 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
183 do this.
184
185 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
186
187 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
188 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
189 dtime() prototype.
190
191 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
192
193 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
194 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
195 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
196 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
197 description.
198
199 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
200 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
201
202 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
203
204 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
205 function num_digits into utils.c
206
207 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
208
209 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
210 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
211 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
212
213 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
214
215 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
216 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
217 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
218 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
219 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
220 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
221 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
222 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
223
224 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
225
226 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
227 Content-Disposition header.
228
229 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
230
231 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
232 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
233 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
234 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
235 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
236 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
237 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
238 users to easily accomodate that by adding
239 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
240
241 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
242
243 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
244 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
245
246 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
247
248 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
249
250 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
251 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
252
253 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
254 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
255
256 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
257
258 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
259 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
260 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
261 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
262 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
263 the signature.
264
265 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
266
267 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
268 widths, restoring right justification feature
269
270 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
271
272 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
273 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
274 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
275
276 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
277 chars fit
278
279 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
280
281 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
282 handling multi column characters.
283
284 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
285
286 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
287
288 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
289
290 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
291 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
292 has been removed.
293
294 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
295
296 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
297
298 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
299
300 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
301 calling realloc.
302
303 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
304
305 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
306 calling malloc.
307
308 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
309
310 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
311 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
312 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
313 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
314
315 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
316
317 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
318 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
319 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
320 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
321 where configure's autodetection fails.
322
323 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
324
325 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
326 configure script change.
327
328 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
329
330 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
331 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
332 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
333 systems with libdb4.
334
335 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
336
337 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
338 the context is only read once.
339
340 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
341
342 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
343 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
344
345 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
346
347 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
348 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
349
350 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
351 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
352 the first one.
353
354 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
355 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
356 annotated messages.
357
358 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
359
360 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
361 vi isn't found during build.
362
363 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
364
365 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
366 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
367
368 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
369 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
370 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
371
372 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
373
374 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
375 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
376
377 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
378 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
379 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
380 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
381 very slow).
382
383 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
384 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
385 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
386
387 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
388 entry in the context file.
389
390 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
391
392 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
393 problems on some systems
394
395 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
396 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
397
398 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
399
400 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
401 sendmail isn't found during build.
402
403 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
404
405 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
406
407 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
408
409 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
410 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
411
412 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
413 references to the web page and mailing list locations
414
415 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
416 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
417
418 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
419 autoconf macros
420
421 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
422
423 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
424 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
425 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
426
427 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
428 was configured with --enable-apop.
429
430 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
431 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
432 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
433
434 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
435 new versions of flex.
436
437 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
438 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
439 doesn't guess wrongly.
440
441 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
442
443 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
444 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
445
446 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
447 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
448
449 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
450 files with numbers as names
451
452 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
453
454 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
455
456 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
457
458 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
459
460 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
461 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
462
463 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
464
465 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
466 vfork on Linux
467
468 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
469 test/report error writing to stdout
470
471 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
472
473 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
474
475 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
476 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
477 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
478
479 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
480 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
481 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
482
483 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
484
485 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
486 character set used by the current locale
487
488 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
489 message's filename overflows an int when converted
490
491 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
492 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
493
494 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
495
496 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
497 the terminal
498
499 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
500
501 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
502 from Michael Richardson.
503
504 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
505 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
506
507 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
508
509 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
510 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
511
512 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
513
514 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
515 find sub-parts of the specified part
516
517 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
518
519 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
520 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
521 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
522 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
523 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
524 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
525 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
526 that path.
527
528 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
529
530 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
531 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
532 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
533 renamed.
534
535 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
536 refiling with -src option.
537
538 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
539
540 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
541
542 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
543
544 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
545 mailpath being overwritten.
546
547 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
548
549 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
550 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
551 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
552 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
553 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
554 reinitializes the tmp file string.
555
556 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
557 if a format string was read from the profile.
558
559 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
560 path for the external hook.
561
562 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
563
564 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
565 another location for ndbm.
566
567 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
568
569 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
570 independent.
571 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
572 to empty folder.
573 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
574
575 Debian Bug#
576 136976 - Handle binary content messages
577 143427 - mh-format.man typo
578 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
579 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
580 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
581 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
582 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
583 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
584 181867 - typo for nmh.man
585
586 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
587
588 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
589 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
590 contitional code which will result in cached data to
591 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
592 and parse on the first use.
593 * Remove some unused flag bits.
594
595 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
596
597 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
598 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
599 * Fixes for bugs
600 #578 - repl leaks umask
601 #1393 - sortm core dumps
602 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
603 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
604 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
605 RFC2822 compliant
606 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
607 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
608
609 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
610
611 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
612 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
613
614 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
615
616 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
617 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
618 to docs/README.about.
619
620 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
621
622 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
623
624 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
625 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
626 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
627 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
628 enough).
629
630 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
631
632 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
633 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
634 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
635 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
636 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
637 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
638 as well.
639
640 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
641 summary configure prints out.
642
643 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
644 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
645 subjectively more readable) format.
646
647 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
648
649 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
650 all nmh commands.
651
652 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
653
654 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
655 19xx when it's not necessary.
656
657 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
658
659 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
660 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
661 roff mark-up.
662
663 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
664 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
665 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
666 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
667 the man pages correctly.
668
669 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
670
671 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
672
673 * Finished manpages ali-prev
674
675 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
676 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
677 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
678 structure.
679
680 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
681 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
682 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
683 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
684
685 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
686
687 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
688 the formatting rules I've been using.
689
690 * Finished ali-inc.
691
692 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
693
694 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
695 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
696 used in the manpages.
697
698 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
699 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
700 read in the contents of the file as the variable
701 $DATE.
702
703 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
704 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
705 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
706 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
707 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
708 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
709 bold flags and italicized parameters.
710
711 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
712
713 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
714 --with-locking option.
715
716 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
717 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
718 information was not being communicated to the
719 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
720 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
721 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
722 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
723 undefined symbols problems.
724
725 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
726 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
727 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
728 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
729 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
730 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
731 for a genuine krb4 installation.
732
733 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
734
735 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
736 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
737
738 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
739
740 * Made a new ./configure option called
741 "--with-locking" that allows the file
742 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
743 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
744
745 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
746 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
747 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
748 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
749 the user that these are the valid options, and
750 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
751 descriptive enough.
752
753 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
754
755 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
756 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
757 committed to supporting flex only, since
758 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
759 string, as well as other problems documented
760 below and on nmh-workers.
761
762 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
763 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
764 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
765 the flag.
766
767 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
768 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
769
770 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
771
772 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
773 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
774 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
775
776 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
777
778 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
779 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
780
781 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
782
783 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
784 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
785 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
786 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
787 couldn't correctly identify them.
788
789 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
790
791 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
792 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
793 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
794 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
795 not depending on an external archive.
796
797 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
798 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
799 mts/generic is no longer built.
800
801 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
802
803 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
804 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
805 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
806 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
807 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
808 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
809 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
810 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
811
812 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
813
814 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
815 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
816 correct.
817
818 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
819
820 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
821 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
822 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
823 now finally mts.
824
825 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
826 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
827 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
828 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
829
830 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
831 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
832 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
833 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
834 merged into the smtp code).
835
836 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
837 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
838 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
839 of it for us.
840
841 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
842 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
843 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
844 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
845 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
846 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
847 in the appropriate Makefile.in
848
849 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
850
851 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
852 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
853 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
854 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
855 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
856 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
857 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
858 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
859 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
860 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
861 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
862
863 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
864
865 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
866 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
867 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
868 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
869 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
870 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
871 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
872 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
873 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
874
875 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
876
877 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
878 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
879 able to access them.
880
881 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
882
883 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
884 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
885
886 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
887
888 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
889 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
890 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
891 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
892
893 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
894
895 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
896 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
897 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
898 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
899 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
900
901 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
902 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
903
904 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
905
906 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
907
908 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
909 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
910 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
911 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
912
913 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
914 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
915 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
916 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
917
918 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
919 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
920 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
921 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
922
923 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
924 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
925 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
926
927 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
928
929 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
930 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
931 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
932 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
933 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
934 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
935 my users.
936
937 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
938 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
939
940 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
941 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
942
943 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
944
945 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
946
947 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
948
949 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
950 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
951 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
952 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
953
954 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
955
956 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
957 be easily changed from "," to "#".
958
959 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
960
961 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
962
963 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
964 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
965 README.developers.
966
967 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
968
969 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
970 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
971 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
972 but not for the subsequent data stream.
973
974 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
975
976 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
977 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
978 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
979 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
980 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
981
982 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
983
984 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
985 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
986
987 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
988 cat, also define lorder as echo.
989
990 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
991
992 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
993
994 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
995 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
996 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
997
998 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
999
1000 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1001 #if 0 block).
1002
1003 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1004 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1005
1006 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1007
1008 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1009 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1010
1011 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1012
1013 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1014 inc does not need to be setgid.
1015
1016 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1017
1018 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1019 library, as found on Debian systems.
1020
1021 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1022
1023 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1024
1025 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1026 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1027 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1028 case-insensitivity flag.
1029
1030 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1031
1032 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1033 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1034
1035 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1036
1037 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1038 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1039 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1040 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1041 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1042 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1043 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1044 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1045 getting moved aside).
1046
1047 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1048 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1049
1050 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1051
1052 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1053 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1054 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1055 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1056 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1057 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1058 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1059 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1060 the prototype, but never sets it.
1061
1062 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1063 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1064 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1065 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1066 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1067 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1068
1069 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1070 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1071 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1072 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1073 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1074
1075 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1076
1077 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1078 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1079 of tws.h.
1080
1081 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1082 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1083 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1084 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1085 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1086 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1087 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1088
1089 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1090
1091 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1092
1093 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1094 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1095 this works on other systems.
1096
1097 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1098
1099 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1100 checks for write failures.
1101
1102 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1103
1104 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1105
1106 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1107 is patched in.
1108
1109 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1110
1111 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1112
1113 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1114
1115 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1116 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1117 a buffer boundary.
1118
1119 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1120
1121 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1122 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1123 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1124 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1125
1126 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1127
1128 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1129 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1130 place.
1131
1132 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1133 as well as Makefiles.
1134
1135 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1136
1137 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1138 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1139 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1140 should make maintainability easier.
1141
1142 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1143 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1144 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1145 whatever you know works.
1146
1147 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1148
1149 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1150 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1151 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1152
1153 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1154 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1155 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1156 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1157
1158 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1159 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1160 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1161
1162 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1163 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1164 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1165 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1166 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1167
1168 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1169 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1170 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1171 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1172 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1173 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1174 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1175 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1176 from the BSD version.
1177
1178 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1179 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1180 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1181
1182 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1183 in ruserpass.c also.
1184
1185 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1186 report:
1187
1188 This happens on solaris:
1189
1190 % man mts.conf
1191 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1192 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1193
1194 It is fixed by
1195
1196 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1197
1198 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1199 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1200
1201 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1202
1203 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1204 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1205 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1206 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1207 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1208 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1209 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1210 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1211 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1212 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1213 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1214
1215 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1216 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1217 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1218 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1219 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1220 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1221 out of nowhere.
1222
1223 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1224 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1225 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1226 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1227 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1228
1229 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1230 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1231
1232 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1233
1234 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1235 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1236 to stdin, such as exmh.
1237
1238 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1239 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1240 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1241 other files.
1242
1243 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1244
1245 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1246 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1247 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1248 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1249 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1250 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1251 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1252
1253 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1254
1255 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1256 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1257
1258 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1259
1260 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1261 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1262
1263 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1264
1265 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1266 --enable-apop.
1267
1268 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1269 along with any -host or -user option.
1270
1271 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1272
1273 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1274
1275 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1276 process was fresh in my mind.
1277
1278 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1279
1280 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1281 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1282
1283 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1284
1285 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1286
1287 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1288 patch:
1289
1290 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1291 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1292 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1293 part of the program's name.
1294
1295 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1296 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1297 to quote.
1298
1299 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1300
1301 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1302 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1303 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1304 single-character format would cause programs using this
1305 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1306 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1307 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1308 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1309 in the array.
1310
1311 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1312
1313 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1314 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1315 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1316 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1317 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1318 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1319
1320 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1321 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1322 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1323 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1324 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1325 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1326 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1327 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1328
1329 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1330 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1331 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1332 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1333 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1334 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1335 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1336 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1337 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1338 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1339
1340 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1341
1342 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1343 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1344
1345 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1346 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1347
1348 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1349 exit 2
1350
1351 and:
1352
1353 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1354
1355 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1356 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1357 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1358 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1359
1360 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1361 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1362 problem in the routine.
1363
1364 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1365
1366 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1367 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1368
1369 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1370 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1371 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1372 spool somehow.
1373
1374 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1375
1376 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1377 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1378 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1379 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1380 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1381 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1382 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1383 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1384 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1385 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1386
1387 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1388
1389 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1390 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1391 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1392 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1393 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1394 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1395 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1396 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1397 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1398 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1399 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1400 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1401
1402 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1403 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1404 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1405 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1406 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1407
1408 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1409 POP is enabled.
1410
1411 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1412
1413 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1414 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1415 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1416 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1417 here.
1418
1419 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1420
1421 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1422
1423 * Applied, after some finessing,
1424 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1425
1426 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1427
1428 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1429
1430 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1431 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1432 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1433 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1434
1435 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1436
1437 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1438 forgetting to do so!).
1439
1440 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1441 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1442 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1443 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1444 arguments to enable all three types.
1445
1446 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1447 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1448
1449 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1450 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1451 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1452 updated copy of mts.conf.
1453
1454 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1455
1456 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1457 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1458 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1459
1460 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1461 and
1462 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1463
1464 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1465 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1466 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1467
1468 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1469 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1470 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1471
1472 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1473 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1474 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1475
1476 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1477
1478 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1479
1480 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1481
1482 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1483
1484 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1485 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1486
1487 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1488 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1489 certain suffix to run properly.
1490
1491 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1492 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1493 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1494
1495 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1496 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1497 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1498 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1499 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1500 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1501 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1502
1503 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1504
1505 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1506 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1507 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1508 until some year far in the future).
1509
1510 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1511
1512 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1513
1514 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1515 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1516
1517 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1518 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1519 corrupted.
1520
1521 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1522
1523 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1524 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1525 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1526 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1527 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1528 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1529
1530 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1531
1532 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1533
1534 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1535 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1536 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1537
1538 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1539 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1540 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1541 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1542 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1543 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1544 leads me to:
1545
1546 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1547 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1548 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1549 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1550 of masquerading individually.
1551
1552 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1553 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1554 GECOS field delimiters.
1555
1556 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1557
1558 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1559 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1560 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1561 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1562 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1563 and explaining the feature.
1564
1565 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1566
1567 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1568 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1569 so).
1570
1571 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1572 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1573 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1574
1575 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1576 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1577 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1578 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1579
1580 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1581 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1582 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1583 anywhere.
1584
1585 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1586
1587 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1588 code to be executed.
1589
1590 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1591
1592 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1593
1594 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1595 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1596 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1597 quotes embedded in them.
1598
1599 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1600
1601 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1602 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1603 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1604 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1605 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1606 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1607 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1608 allowed to specify.
1609
1610 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1611 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1612 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1613 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1614 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1615
1616 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1617
1618 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1619
1620 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1621 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1622 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1623 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1624
1625 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1626 KPOP server.
1627
1628 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1629
1630 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1631
1632 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1633
1634 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1635 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1636 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1637
1638 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1639 mhn.defaults.sh.
1640
1641 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1642
1643 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1644 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1645 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1646 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1647 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1648 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1649
1650 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1651 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1652
1653 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1654
1655 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1656 page.
1657
1658 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1659
1660 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1661 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1662 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1663 to be setgid.
1664
1665 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1666 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1667 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1668 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1669 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1670 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1671 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1672 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1673 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1674 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1675 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1676 processing that post has).
1677
1678 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1679
1680 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1681 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1682 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1683 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1684 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1685 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1686 Solaris 2.6).
1687
1688 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1689
1690 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1691
1692 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1693
1694 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1695
1696 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1697 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1698
1699 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1700 command-line.
1701
1702 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1703
1704 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1705 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1706 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1707 some development.
1708
1709 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1710
1711 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1712 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1713 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1714 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1715 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1716 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1717
1718 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1719
1720 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1721
1722 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1723
1724 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1725 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1726 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1727 caught again. This works for now.
1728
1729 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1730
1731 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1732
1733 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1734 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1735
1736 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1737
1738 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1739 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1740
1741 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1742
1743 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1744
1745 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1746
1747 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1748 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1749
1750 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1751
1752 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1753 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1754 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1755 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1756 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1757 multiple purposes.
1758
1759 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1760
1761 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1762 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1763 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1764
1765 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1766 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1767 config.guess.
1768
1769 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1770
1771 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1772 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1773 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1774
1775 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1776
1777 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1778 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1779
1780 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1781
1782 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1783 distributed.
1784
1785 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1786 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1787
1788 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1789 macros, regardless of platform.
1790
1791 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1792 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1793
1794 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1795 with x-conversions=gzip.
1796
1797 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1798
1799 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1800 post.c.
1801
1802 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1803 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1804 implicit definition of ioctl().
1805
1806 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1807 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1808 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1809 want to mess with them.
1810
1811 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1812
1813 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1814 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1815
1816 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1817 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1818
1819 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1820 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1821 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1822
1823 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1824 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1825 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1826
1827 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1828 function initgroups.
1829
1830 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1831 function.
1832
1833 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1834 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1835 to fix warnings.
1836
1837 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1838 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1839 prevent warnings.
1840
1841 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1842 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1843 statements).
1844
1845
1846 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1847
1848 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1849 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1850 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1851
1852 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1853 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1854
1855 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1856
1857 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1858
1859 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1860 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1861 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1862 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1863
1864 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1865 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1866
1867 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1868
1869 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1870
1871 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1872
1873 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1874 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1875
1876 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1877
1878 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1879 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1880
1881 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1882 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1883 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1884 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1885
1886 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1887 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1888
1889 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1890
1891 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1892 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1893
1894 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1895
1896 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1897 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1898 proper #defines.
1899
1900 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1901
1902 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1903
1904 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1905
1906 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1907 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1908
1909 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1910 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1911 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1912
1913 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1914 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1915 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1916
1917 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1918 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1919 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1920
1921 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1922 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1923 <swb@nconnect.net>.
1924
1925 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1926 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1927
1928 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1929 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1930
1931 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1932 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1933
1934 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1935 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1936 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1937
1938 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1939 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1940
1941 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1942 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1943 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1944
1945 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1946 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1947 <rmg@netapp.com>.
1948
1949 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1950 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1951
1952 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1953 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1954 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1955 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1956
1957 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1958 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1959
1960 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1961
1962 * Released nmh-1.0.
1963
1964 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1965 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1966 would not be changed.
1967
1968 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1969 one from the Apache web server.
1970
1971 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1972 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1973
1974 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1975 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1976 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1977
1978 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1979
1980 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1981
1982 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1983 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1984 verbose printing).
1985
1986 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1987 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1988 removes a bad race condition.
1989
1990 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1991 style drop file.
1992
1993 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1994 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1995 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1996
1997 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1998 sequence information.
1999
2000 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2001 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2002
2003 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2004 count.
2005
2006 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2007 is empty.
2008
2009 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2010
2011 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2012 interpret 034 as octal.
2013
2014 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2015
2016 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2017 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2018
2019 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2020 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2021
2022 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2023 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2024
2025 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2026 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2027
2028 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2029 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2030
2031 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2032 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2033 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2034
2035 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2036 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2037 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2038
2039 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2040
2041 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2042
2043 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2044 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2045 file "mhoutsbr.c".
2046
2047 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2048
2049 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2050 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2051
2052 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2053 header field information.
2054
2055 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2056 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2057
2058 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2059 values when parsing a content.
2060
2061 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2062 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2063
2064 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2065 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2066
2067 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2068 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2069
2070 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2071 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2072
2073 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2074
2075 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2076
2077 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2078
2079 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2080
2081 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2082 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2083 read.
2084
2085 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2086 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2087
2088 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2089 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2090 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2091 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2092 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2093 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2094 be setuid/setgid.
2095
2096 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2097
2098 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2099 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2100 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2101
2102 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2103 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2104
2105 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2106
2107 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2108 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2109 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2110 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2111
2112 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2113 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2114 fix).
2115
2116 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2117 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2118 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2119 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2120 arguments.
2121
2122 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2123
2124 * Released nmh-0.27.
2125
2126 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2127 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2128
2129 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2130 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2131 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2132 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2133 with no arguments.
2134
2135 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2136 mhbuild returns an error.
2137
2138 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2139 rename the draft file.
2140
2141 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2142 use a global variable.
2143
2144 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2145 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2146
2147 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2148 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2149
2150 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2151 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2152 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2153
2154 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2155 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2156
2157 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2158 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2159 this new page.
2160
2161 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2162 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2163 viamail program.
2164
2165 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2166 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2167
2168 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2169 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2170 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2171
2172 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2173 to new function output_content_folder.
2174
2175 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2176 new function output_content_file.
2177
2178 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2179 to new function parse_format_string.
2180
2181 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2182 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2183 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2184 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2185
2186 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2187 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2188 message/external file from ftp.
2189
2190 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2191 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2192 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2193
2194 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2195 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2196 mhfree.c.
2197
2198 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2199 file mhshowsbr.c.
2200
2201 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2202 new file mhstoresbr.c
2203
2204 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2205 file mhparse.c.
2206
2207 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2208 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2209
2210 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2211 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2212
2213 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2214 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2215 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2216
2217 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2218
2219 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2220
2221 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2222 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2223 to main().
2224
2225 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2226 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2227
2228 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2229 to mhparse.c).
2230
2231 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2232
2233 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2234
2235 * Released nmh-0.26.
2236
2237 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2238 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2239 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2240 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2241
2242 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2243 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2244 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2245 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2246 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2247
2248 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2249 But it is not on by default.
2250
2251 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2252 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2253
2254 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2255
2256 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2257
2258 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2259
2260 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2261
2262 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2263 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2264
2265 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2266
2267 * Released nmh-0.25.
2268
2269 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2270 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2271 uses the original name of the library.
2272
2273 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2274 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2275 links remaining.
2276
2277 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2278 list_content and list_debug.
2279
2280 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2281
2282 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2283 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2284
2285 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2286
2287 * Released nmh-0.24.
2288
2289 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2290
2291 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2292 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2293
2294 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2295 large sequence line.
2296
2297 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2298
2299 * Released nmh-0.23.
2300
2301 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2302
2303 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2304 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2305 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2306 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2307
2308 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2309 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2310 file h/mhnsbr.h.
2311
2312 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2313
2314 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2315
2316 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2317
2318 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2319 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2320
2321 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2322 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2323
2324 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2325 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2326
2327 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2328 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2329
2330 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2331
2332 * Released nmh-0.22.
2333
2334 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2335 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2336
2337 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2338
2339 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2340 mh-profile(5) man page.
2341
2342 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2343 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2344
2345 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2346
2347 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2348
2349 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2350 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2351
2352 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2353
2354 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2355 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2356 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2357
2358 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2359 source message on the standard input.
2360
2361 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2362
2363 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2364 rather than -rfc934mode.
2365
2366 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2367 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2368 only one message.
2369
2370 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2371 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2372
2373 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2374 it is still needed.
2375
2376 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2377
2378 * Released nmh-0.21.
2379
2380 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2381 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2382
2383 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2384 encoding to use.
2385
2386 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2387 to use for text contents.
2388
2389 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2390
2391 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2392
2393 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2394
2395 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2396
2397 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2398 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2399
2400 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2401 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2402 spaces between encoded word are.
2403
2404 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2405
2406 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2407 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2408
2409 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2410 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2411 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2412
2413 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2414
2415 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2416 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2417
2418 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2419
2420 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2421
2422 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2423 ISO-8859-X character set.
2424
2425 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2426 pager more.
2427
2428 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2429 permissions, not write permissions.
2430
2431 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2432 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2433
2434 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2435 distribution.
2436
2437 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2438
2439 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2440
2441 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2442 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2443
2444 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2445 message contains valid character set.
2446
2447 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2448 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2449
2450 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2451 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2452
2453 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2454 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2455 between an encoded word and normal text.
2456
2457 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2458 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2459
2460 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2461 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2462
2463 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2464 and -help.
2465
2466 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2467 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2468 loops).
2469
2470 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2471 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2472
2473 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2474 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2475
2476 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2477
2478 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2479
2480 * Released nmh-0.20.
2481
2482 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2483
2484 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2485
2486 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2487 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2488 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2489
2490 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2491 and the To: line was missing.
2492
2493 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2494
2495 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2496
2497 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2498
2499 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2500 watch the POP transaction.
2501
2502 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2503 first, and use it if available.
2504
2505 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2506 first, and use it if available.
2507
2508 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2509
2510 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2511
2512 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2513 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2514 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2515 sequence line.
2516
2517 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2518 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2519 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2520
2521 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2522 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2523 lines.
2524
2525 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2526
2527 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2528 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2529
2530 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2531
2532 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2533 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2534
2535 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2536 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2537 message to which you are replying.
2538
2539 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2540 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2541 making group replies.
2542
2543 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2544
2545 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2546
2547 * Released nmh-0.19.
2548
2549 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2550 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2551
2552 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2553 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2554 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2555 to the end of the man page.
2556
2557 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2558 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2559 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2560 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2561 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2562 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2563
2564 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2565 pages.
2566
2567 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2568 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2569 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2570
2571 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2572 the next available number above the message number you wish
2573 to preserve.
2574
2575 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2576 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2577
2578 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2579 file sbr/seq_print.c
2580
2581 * flist will now update the current folder.
2582
2583 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2584 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2585 but now undocumented.
2586
2587 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2588 traversing folders.
2589
2590 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2591 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2592
2593 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2594
2595 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2596 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2597
2598 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2599
2600 * Released nmh-0.18.
2601
2602 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2603 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2604 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2605
2606 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2607 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2608
2609 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2610 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2611 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2612 previous public/private status.
2613
2614 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2615 correctly.
2616
2617 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2618 private sequences).
2619
2620 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2621 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2622 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2623
2624 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2625 take option to determine whether it should get current
2626 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2627 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2628
2629 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2630
2631 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2632 wait for stopped processes.
2633
2634 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2635 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2636
2637 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2638
2639 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2640
2641 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2642 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2643
2644 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2645 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2646
2647 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2648 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2649 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2650 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2651
2652 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2653 status allocation).
2654
2655 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2656 the code.
2657
2658 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2659
2660 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2661 the debugging output.
2662
2663 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2664 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2665
2666 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2667
2668 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2669
2670 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2671 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2672
2673 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2674
2675 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2676 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2677 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2678 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2679 in the given sequence.
2680
2681 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2682 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2683 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2684 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2685 subdirectories of a given directory.
2686
2687 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2688 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2689 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2690
2691 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2692 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2693
2694 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2695
2696 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2697 to 0700 (was 0711).
2698
2699 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2700 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2701 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2702
2703 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2704 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2705 are calculated at runtime.
2706
2707 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2708
2709 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2710
2711 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2712 about checking for global mh.profile.
2713
2714 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2715 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2716 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2717 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2718 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2719 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2720
2721 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2722 adding message to folder itself.
2723
2724 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2725 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2726 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2727 instead of exiting.
2728
2729 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2730 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2731 the error EEXIST.
2732
2733 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2734 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2735 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2736
2737 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2738 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2739
2740 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2741 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2742 code to use it yet).
2743
2744 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2745
2746 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2747
2748 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2749 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2750
2751 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2752 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2753
2754 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2755
2756 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2757 to folder_addmsg.c
2758
2759 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2760
2761 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2762
2763 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2764
2765 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2766
2767 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2768 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2769
2770 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2771
2772 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2773
2774 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2775
2776 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2777
2778 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2779
2780 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2781 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2782
2783 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2784 configuration files.
2785
2786 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2787
2788 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2789
2790 * Released nmh-0.17.
2791
2792 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2793
2794 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2795 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2796
2797 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2798 defined.
2799
2800 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2801 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2802
2803 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2804 number of refiled message.
2805
2806 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2807
2808 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2809 for return value of wait().
2810
2811 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2812
2813 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2814
2815 * Released nmh-0.16.
2816
2817 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2818
2819 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2820
2821 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2822 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2823 deal with binary messages, yet).
2824
2825 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2826
2827 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2828
2829 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2830 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2831 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2832 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2833 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2834 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2835
2836 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2837 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2838
2839 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2840 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2841
2842 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2843 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2844 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2845
2846 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2847
2848 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2849
2850 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2851 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2852 composition files.
2853
2854 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2855 files.
2856
2857 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2858
2859 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2860 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2861 which used unsigned chars by default.
2862
2863 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2864
2865 * Released nmh-0.15.
2866
2867 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2868 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2869
2870 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2871
2872 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2873
2874 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2875 return 0.
2876
2877 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2878 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2879 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2880
2881 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2882 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2883
2884 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2885
2886 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2887 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2888
2889 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2890 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2891 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2892 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2893
2894 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2895 and put in own subroutine.
2896
2897 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2898 and put in own subroutine.
2899
2900 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2901 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2902 refile.c to use new routine.
2903

2909 seq_getnum.
2910
2911 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2912 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2913 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2914
2915 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2916 no longer used.
2917
2918 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2919 adding message to sequence.

2925 file in sbr.
2926
2927 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2928
2929 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2930 all selected messages from a sequence.
2931
2932 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2933 selected messages to a sequence.
2934
2935 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2936 and m_seqok.c.

2961
2962 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2963 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2964 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2965 environment variable.
2966
2967 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2968 draft folder facility in nmh.

2981
2982 * Released nmh-0.13.
2983
2984 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2985 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2986 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2987 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2988 to MAXARGS).
2989
2990 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2991 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2992
2993 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2994
2995 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2996 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2997
2998 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2999
3000 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
3001 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

3014 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
3015
3016 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
3017 mp->attrstats with macros.
3018
3019 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3020 in msh.c instead.
3021
3022 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3023 to hide dd->dd_fd.
3024
3025 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3026 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3027
3028 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3029 will suppress the display of the message header.
3030
3031 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3032
3033 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3034 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3035
3036 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3037
3038 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3039
3040 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3041
3042 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3043 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3044
3045 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3046 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3047
3048 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3049
3050 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3051
3052 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3053 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3054
3055 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3056 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

3066
3067 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3068
3069 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
3070 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3071
3072 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3073 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3074
3075 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
3076 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.

3099 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
3100
3101 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3102
3103 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
3104 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
3105
3106 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3107
3108 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3109
3110 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3111 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3112
3113 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3114
3115 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3116 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3117
3118 * Released nmh-0.08.
3119
3120 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3121 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3122 locking database itself.
3123
3124 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3125
3126 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3127
3128 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3129 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3130 option.
3131
3132 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3133 rather than mmdf format.
3134
3135 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3136 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3137 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3138 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3139
3140 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3141
3142 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3143
3144 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3145 added to packf.
3146
3147 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3148 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3149 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3150
3151 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3152 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3153 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3154
3155 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3156
3157 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3158 can still easily change this in config.h).
3159
3160 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3161 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3162 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3163
3164 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3165
3166 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3167 than tzset and external timezone variable.

3170
3171 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

3180 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3181 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3182
3183 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3184 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3185 on SCO 5.x.
3186
3187 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3188 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3189
3190 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3191 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3192
3193 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3194
3195 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3196
3197 * Added configure check for tzset.
3198
3199 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3200
3201 * Released nmh-0.06.
3202
3203 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3204 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3205
3206 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3207 many such machines around anymore.
3208
3209 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3210 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3211
3212 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3213 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3214
3215 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3217 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3218 pre-generated version if necessary.
3219
3220 * Released nmh-0.05.
3221
3222 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3223 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3224 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3225 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3226
3227 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3228 be linked in one pass.
3229
3230 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3231
3232 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3233 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3234
3235 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3236
3237 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3238
3239 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3240
3241 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3242 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3243 become the current folder.
3244
3245 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3246

3253
3254 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3255 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3256 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3257
3258 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3259
3260 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3261 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3262
3263 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3264
3265 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3266 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3267 using POP.
3268
3269 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3270 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3271
3272 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3273
3274 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3275 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3276 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3277 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3278 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3279 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3280
3281 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3282
3283 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3284 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3285
3286 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3287 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3288
3289 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3290
3291 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3292 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3293
3294 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3295
3296 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3297 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3298 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3299
3300 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3301
3302 * Released nmh-0.03.
3303
3304 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3305 .mh_sequence file existed.
3306
3307 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3308 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3309
3310 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3311 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3312 man page.
3313
3314 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3315

3317 flist man page.
3318
3319 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3320
3321 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3322 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3323 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3324
3325 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3326
3327 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3328 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3329 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3330
3331 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3332
3333 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL

3335
3336 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3337
3338 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3339

3341 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3342 directory from where the source code is located.
3343

3360 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3361
3362 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3363
3364 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3365
3366 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3367 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3368 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3369 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3370 rather than in script.
3371
3372 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3373
3374 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3375
3376 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3377 macro defined on Solaris.
3378
3379 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3380
3381 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3382 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3383
3384 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3385 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3386 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3387 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3388 options if enabled.
3389
3390 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3391
3392 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3393 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3394
3395 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3396 correctly found.
3397
3398 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3399
3400 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3401
3402 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3403 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3404
3405 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3406
3407 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3408 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3409
3410 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3411
3412 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3413 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3414 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3415 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3416 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3417 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3418
3419 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3420
3421 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3422
3423 * Released nmh-0.01.
3424
3425 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3426 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3427 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3428 have POSIX signals.
3429
3430 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3431
3432 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3433 their man pages.
3434
3435 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3436
3437 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3438 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3439
3440 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3441
3442 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3443 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3444 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3445 script to find_program.
3446
3447 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3448
3449 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3450 speed up -recurse option.
3451
3452 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3453 yet, but it compiles :-)
3454
3455 * Changed default location for install to
3456 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3457 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3458 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3459 level Makefile.
3460
3461 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3462 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3463 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
