1 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
2
3 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
4 multipart messages.
5
6 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
7
8 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
9 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
10 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
11 following done() (should never be reached).
12
13 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
14
15 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
16 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
17
18 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
19
20 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
21 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
22
23 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
24
25 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
26 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
27 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
28 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
29 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
30 acconfig.h if you must.
31
32 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
33
34 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
35 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
36 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
37 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
38
39 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
40
41 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
42 inc sgid.
43
44 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
45
46 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
47 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
48 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
49 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
50 have Content-Disposition.
51
52 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
53
54 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
55 if it isn't valid.
56
57 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
58
59 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
60 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
61
62 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
63
64 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
65 encoded block is empty
66
67 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
68
69 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
70 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
71 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
72 do this.
73
74 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
75
76 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
77 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
78 dtime() prototype.
79
80 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
81
82 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
83 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
84 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
85 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
86 description.
87
88 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
89 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
90
91 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
92
93 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
94 function num_digits into utils.c
95
96 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
97
98 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
99 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
100 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
101
102 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
103
104 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
105 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
106 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
107 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
108 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
109 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
110 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
111 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
112
113 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
114
115 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
116 Content-Disposition header.
117
118 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
119
120 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
121 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
122 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
123 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
124 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
125 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
126 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
127 users to easily accomodate that by adding
128 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
129
130 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
131
132 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
133 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
134
135 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
136
137 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
138
139 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
140 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
141
142 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
143 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
144
145 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
146
147 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
148 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
149 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
150 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
151 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
152 the signature.
153
154 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
155
156 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
157 widths, restoring right justification feature
158
159 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
160
161 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
162 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
163 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
164
165 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
166 chars fit
167
168 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
169
170 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
171 handling multi column characters.
172
173 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
174
175 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
176
177 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
178
179 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
180 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
181 has been removed.
182
183 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
184
185 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
186
187 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
188
189 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
190 calling realloc.
191
192 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
193
194 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
195 calling malloc.
196
197 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
198
199 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
200 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
201 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
202 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
203
204 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
205
206 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
207 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
208 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
209 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
210 where configure's autodetection fails.
211
212 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
213
214 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
215 configure script change.
216
217 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
218
219 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
220 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
221 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
222 systems with libdb4.
223
224 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
225
226 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
227 the context is only read once.
228
229 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
230
231 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
232 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
233
234 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
235
236 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
237 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
238
239 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
240 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
241 the first one.
242
243 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
244 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
245 annotated messages.
246
247 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
248
249 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
250 vi isn't found during build.
251
252 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
253
254 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
255 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
256
257 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
258 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
259 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
260
261 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
262
263 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
264 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
265
266 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
267 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
268 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
269 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
270 very slow).
271
272 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
273 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
274 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
275
276 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
277 entry in the context file.
278
279 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
280
281 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
282 problems on some systems
283
284 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
285 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
286
287 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
288
289 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
290 sendmail isn't found during build.
291
292 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
293
294 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
295
296 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
297
298 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
299 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
300
301 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
302 references to the web page and mailing list locations
303
304 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
305 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
306
307 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
308 autoconf macros
309
310 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
311
312 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
313 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
314 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
315
316 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
317 was configured with --enable-apop.
318
319 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
320 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
321 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
322
323 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
324 new versions of flex.
325
326 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
327 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
328 doesn't guess wrongly.
329
330 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
331
332 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
333 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
334
335 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
336 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
337
338 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
339 files with numbers as names
340
341 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
342
343 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
344
345 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
346
347 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
348
349 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
350 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
351
352 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
353
354 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
355 vfork on Linux
356
357 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
358 test/report error writing to stdout
359
360 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
361
362 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
363
364 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
365 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
366 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
367
368 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
369 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
370 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
371
372 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
373
374 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
375 character set used by the current locale
376
377 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
378 message's filename overflows an int when converted
379
380 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
381 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
382
383 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
384
385 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
386 the terminal
387
388 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
389
390 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
391 from Michael Richardson.
392
393 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
394 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
395
396 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
397
398 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
399 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
400
401 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
402
403 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
404 find sub-parts of the specified part
405
406 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
407
408 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
409 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
410 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
411 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
412 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
413 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
414 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
415 that path.
416
417 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
418
419 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
420 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
421 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
422 renamed.
423
424 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
425 refiling with -src option.
426
427 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
428
429 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
430
431 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
432
433 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
434 mailpath being overwritten.
435
436 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
437
438 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
439 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
440 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
441 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
442 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
443 reinitializes the tmp file string.
444
445 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
446 if a format string was read from the profile.
447
448 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
449 path for the external hook.
450
451 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
452
453 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
454 another location for ndbm.
455
456 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
457
458 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
459 independent.
460 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
461 to empty folder.
462 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
463
464 Debian Bug#
465 136976 - Handle binary content messages
466 143427 - mh-format.man typo
467 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
468 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
469 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
470 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
471 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
472 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
473 181867 - typo for nmh.man
474
475 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
476
477 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
478 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
479 contitional code which will result in cached data to
480 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
481 and parse on the first use.
482 * Remove some unused flag bits.
483
484 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
485
486 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
487 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
488 * Fixes for bugs
489 #578 - repl leaks umask
490 #1393 - sortm core dumps
491 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
492 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
493 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
494 RFC2822 compliant
495 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
496 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
497
498 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
499
500 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
501 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
502
503 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
504
505 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
506 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
507 to docs/README.about.
508
509 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
510
511 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
512
513 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
514 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
515 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
516 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
517 enough).
518
519 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
520
521 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
522 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
523 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
524 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
525 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
526 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
527 as well.
528
529 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
530 summary configure prints out.
531
532 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
533 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
534 subjectively more readable) format.
535
536 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
537
538 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
539 all nmh commands.
540
541 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
542
543 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
544 19xx when it's not necessary.
545
546 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
547
548 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
549 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
550 roff mark-up.
551
552 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
553 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
554 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
555 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
556 the man pages correctly.
557
558 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
559
560 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
561
562 * Finished manpages ali-prev
563
564 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
565 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
566 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
567 structure.
568
569 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
570 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
571 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
572 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
573
574 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
575
576 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
577 the formatting rules I've been using.
578
579 * Finished ali-inc.
580
581 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
582
583 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
584 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
585 used in the manpages.
586
587 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
588 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
589 read in the contents of the file as the variable
590 $DATE.
591
592 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
593 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
594 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
595 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
596 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
597 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
598 bold flags and italicized parameters.
599
600 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
601
602 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
603 --with-locking option.
604
605 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
606 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
607 information was not being communicated to the
608 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
609 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
610 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
611 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
612 undefined symbols problems.
613
614 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
615 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
616 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
617 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
618 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
619 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
620 for a genuine krb4 installation.
621
622 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
623
624 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
625 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
626
627 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
628
629 * Made a new ./configure option called
630 "--with-locking" that allows the file
631 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
632 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
633
634 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
635 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
636 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
637 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
638 the user that these are the valid options, and
639 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
640 descriptive enough.
641
642 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
643
644 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
645 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
646 committed to supporting flex only, since
647 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
648 string, as well as other problems documented
649 below and on nmh-workers.
650
651 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
652 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
653 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
654 the flag.
655
656 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
657 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
658
659 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
660
661 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
662 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
663 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
664
665 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
666
667 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
668 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
669
670 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
671
672 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
673 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
674 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
675 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
676 couldn't correctly identify them.
677
678 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
679
680 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
681 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
682 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
683 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
684 not depending on an external archive.
685
686 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
687 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
688 mts/generic is no longer built.
689
690 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
691
692 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
693 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
694 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
695 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
696 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
697 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
698 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
699 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
700
701 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
702
703 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
704 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
705 correct.
706
707 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
708
709 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
710 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
711 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
712 now finally mts.
713
714 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
715 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
716 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
717 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
718
719 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
720 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
721 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
722 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
723 merged into the smtp code).
724
725 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
726 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
727 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
728 of it for us.
729
730 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
731 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
732 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
733 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
734 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
735 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
736 in the appropriate Makefile.in
737
738 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
739
740 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
741 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
742 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
743 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
744 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
745 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
746 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
747 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
748 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
749 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
750 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
751
752 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
753
754 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
755 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
756 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
757 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
758 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
759 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
760 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
761 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
762 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
763
764 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
765
766 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
767 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
768 able to access them.
769
770 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
771
772 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
773 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
774
775 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
776
777 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
778 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
779 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
780 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
781
782 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
783
784 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
785 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
786 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
787 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
788 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
789
790 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
791 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
792
793 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
794
795 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
796
797 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
798 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
799 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
800 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
801
802 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
803 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
804 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
805 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
806
807 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
808 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
809 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
810 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
811
812 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
813 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
814 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
815
816 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
817
818 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
819 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
820 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
821 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
822 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
823 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
824 my users.
825
826 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
827 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
828
829 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
830 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
831
832 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
833
834 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
835
836 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
837
838 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
839 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
840 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
841 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
842
843 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
844
845 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
846 be easily changed from "," to "#".
847
848 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
849
850 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
851
852 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
853 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
854 README.developers.
855
856 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
857
858 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
859 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
860 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
861 but not for the subsequent data stream.
862
863 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
864
865 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
866 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
867 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
868 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
869 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
870
871 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
872
873 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
874 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
875
876 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
877 cat, also define lorder as echo.
878
879 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
880
881 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
882
883 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
884 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
885 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
886
887 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
888
889 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
890 #if 0 block).
891
892 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
893 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
894
895 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
896
897 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
898 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
899
900 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
901
902 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
903 inc does not need to be setgid.
904
905 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
906
907 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
908 library, as found on Debian systems.
909
910 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
911
912 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
913
914 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
915 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
916 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
917 case-insensitivity flag.
918
919 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
920
921 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
922 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
923
924 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
925
926 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
927 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
928 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
929 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
930 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
931 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
932 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
933 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
934 getting moved aside).
935
936 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
937 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
938
939 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
940
941 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
942 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
943 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
944 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
945 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
946 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
947 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
948 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
949 the prototype, but never sets it.
950
951 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
952 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
953 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
954 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
955 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
956 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
957
958 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
959 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
960 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
961 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
962 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
963
964 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
965
966 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
967 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
968 of tws.h.
969
970 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
971 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
972 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
973 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
974 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
975 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
976 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
977
978 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
979
980 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
981
982 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
983 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
984 this works on other systems.
985
986 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
987
988 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
989 checks for write failures.
990
991 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
992
993 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
994
995 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
996 is patched in.
997
998 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
999
1000 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1001
1002 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1003
1004 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1005 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1006 a buffer boundary.
1007
1008 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1009
1010 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1011 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1012 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1013 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1014
1015 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1016
1017 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1018 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1019 place.
1020
1021 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1022 as well as Makefiles.
1023
1024 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1025
1026 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1027 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1028 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1029 should make maintainability easier.
1030
1031 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1032 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1033 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1034 whatever you know works.
1035
1036 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1037
1038 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1039 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1040 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1041
1042 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1043 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1044 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1045 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1046
1047 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1048 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1049 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1050
1051 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1052 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1053 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1054 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1055 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1056
1057 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1058 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1059 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1060 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1061 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1062 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1063 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1064 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1065 from the BSD version.
1066
1067 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1068 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1069 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1070
1071 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1072 in ruserpass.c also.
1073
1074 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1075 report:
1076
1077 This happens on solaris:
1078
1079 % man mts.conf
1080 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1081 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1082
1083 It is fixed by
1084
1085 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1086
1087 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1088 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1089
1090 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1091
1092 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1093 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1094 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1095 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1096 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1097 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1098 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1099 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1100 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1101 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1102 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1103
1104 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1105 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1106 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1107 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1108 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1109 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1110 out of nowhere.
1111
1112 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1113 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1114 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1115 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1116 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1117
1118 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1119 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1120
1121 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1122
1123 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1124 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1125 to stdin, such as exmh.
1126
1127 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1128 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1129 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1130 other files.
1131
1132 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1133
1134 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1135 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1136 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1137 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1138 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1139 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1140 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1141
1142 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1143
1144 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1145 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1146
1147 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1148
1149 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1150 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1151
1152 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1153
1154 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1155 --enable-apop.
1156
1157 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1158 along with any -host or -user option.
1159
1160 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1161
1162 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1163
1164 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1165 process was fresh in my mind.
1166
1167 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1168
1169 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1170 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1171
1172 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1173
1174 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1175
1176 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1177 patch:
1178
1179 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1180 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1181 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1182 part of the program's name.
1183
1184 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1185 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1186 to quote.
1187
1188 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1189
1190 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1191 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1192 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1193 single-character format would cause programs using this
1194 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1195 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1196 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1197 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1198 in the array.
1199
1200 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1201
1202 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1203 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1204 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1205 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1206 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1207 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1208
1209 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1210 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1211 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1212 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1213 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1214 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1215 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1216 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1217
1218 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1219 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1220 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1221 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1222 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1223 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1224 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1225 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1226 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1227 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1228
1229 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1230
1231 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1232 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1233
1234 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1235 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1236
1237 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1238 exit 2
1239
1240 and:
1241
1242 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1243
1244 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1245 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1246 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1247 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1248
1249 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1250 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1251 problem in the routine.
1252
1253 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1254
1255 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1256 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1257
1258 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1259 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1260 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1261 spool somehow.
1262
1263 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1264
1265 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1266 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1267 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1268 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1269 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1270 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1271 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1272 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1273 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1274 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1275
1276 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1277
1278 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1279 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1280 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1281 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1282 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1283 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1284 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1285 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1286 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1287 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1288 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1289 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1290
1291 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1292 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1293 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1294 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1295 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1296
1297 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1298 POP is enabled.
1299
1300 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1301
1302 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1303 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1304 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1305 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1306 here.
1307
1308 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1309
1310 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1311
1312 * Applied, after some finessing,
1313 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1314
1315 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1316
1317 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1318
1319 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1320 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1321 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1322 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1323
1324 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1325
1326 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1327 forgetting to do so!).
1328
1329 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1330 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1331 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1332 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1333 arguments to enable all three types.
1334
1335 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1336 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1337
1338 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1339 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1340 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1341 updated copy of mts.conf.
1342
1343 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1344
1345 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1346 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1347 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1348
1349 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1350 and
1351 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1352
1353 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1354 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1355 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1356
1357 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1358 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1359 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1360
1361 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1362 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1363 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1364
1365 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1366
1367 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1368
1369 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1370
1371 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1372
1373 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1374 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1375
1376 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1377 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1378 certain suffix to run properly.
1379
1380 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1381 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1382 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1383
1384 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1385 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1386 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1387 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1388 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1389 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1390 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1391
1392 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1393
1394 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1395 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1396 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1397 until some year far in the future).

1399 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1400
1401 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1402
1403 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1404 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1405
1406 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1407 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1408 corrupted.
1409
1410 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1411
1412 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1413 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1414 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1415 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1416 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1417 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1418
1419 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1420
1421 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1422
1423 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1424 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1425 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1426
1427 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1428 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1429 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1430 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1431 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1432 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1433 leads me to:
1434
1435 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1436 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1437 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1438 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1439 of masquerading individually.
1440
1441 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1442 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1443 GECOS field delimiters.
1444
1445 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1446
1447 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1448 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1449 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1450 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1451 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1452 and explaining the feature.
1453
1454 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1455
1456 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1457 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1458 so).
1459
1460 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1461 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1462 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1463
1464 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1465 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1466 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1467 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1468
1469 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1470 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1471 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1472 anywhere.
1473
1474 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1475
1476 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1477 code to be executed.
1478
1479 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1480
1481 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1482
1483 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1484 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1485 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1486 quotes embedded in them.
1487
1488 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1489
1490 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1491 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1492 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1493 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1494 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1495 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1496 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1497 allowed to specify.
1498
1499 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1500 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1501 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1502 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1503 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1504
1505 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1506
1507 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1508
1509 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1510 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1511 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1512 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1513
1514 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1515 KPOP server.
1516
1517 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1518
1519 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1520
1521 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1522
1523 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1524 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1525 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1526
1527 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1528 mhn.defaults.sh.
1529
1530 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1531
1532 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1533 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1534 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1535 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1536 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1537 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1538
1539 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1540 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1541
1542 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1543
1544 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1545 page.
1546
1547 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1548
1549 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1550 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1551 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1552 to be setgid.
1553
1554 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1555 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1556 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1557 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1558 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1559 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1560 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1561 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1562 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1563 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1564 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1565 processing that post has).
1566
1567 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1568
1569 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1570 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1571 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1572 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1573 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1574 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1575 Solaris 2.6).
1576
1577 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1578
1579 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1580
1581 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1582
1583 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1584
1585 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1586 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1587
1588 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1589 command-line.
1590
1591 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1592
1593 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1594 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1595 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1596 some development.
1597
1598 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1599
1600 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1601 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1602 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1603 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1604 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1605 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1606
1607 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1608
1609 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1610
1611 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1612
1613 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1614 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1615 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1616 caught again. This works for now.
1617
1618 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1619
1620 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1621
1622 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1623 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1624
1625 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1626
1627 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1628 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1629
1630 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1631
1632 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1633
1634 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1635
1636 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1637 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1638
1639 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1640
1641 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1642 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1643 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1644 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1645 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1646 multiple purposes.
1647
1648 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1649
1650 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1651 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1652 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1653
1654 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1655 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1656 config.guess.
1657
1658 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1659
1660 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1661 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1662 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1663
1664 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1665
1666 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1667 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1668
1669 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1670
1671 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1672 distributed.
1673
1674 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1675 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1676
1677 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1678 macros, regardless of platform.
1679
1680 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1681 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1682
1683 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1684 with x-conversions=gzip.
1685
1686 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1687
1688 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1689 post.c.
1690
1691 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1692 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1693 implicit definition of ioctl().
1694
1695 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1696 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1697 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1698 want to mess with them.
1699
1700 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1701
1702 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1703 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1704
1705 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1706 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1707
1708 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1709 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1710 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1711
1712 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1713 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1714 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1715
1716 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1717 function initgroups.
1718
1719 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1720 function.
1721
1722 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1723 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1724 to fix warnings.
1725
1726 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1727 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1728 prevent warnings.
1729
1730 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1731 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1732 statements).
1733
1734
1735 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1736
1737 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1738 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1739 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1740
1741 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1742 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1743
1744 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1745
1746 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1747
1748 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1749 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1750 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1751 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1752
1753 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1754 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1755
1756 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1757
1758 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1759
1760 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1761
1762 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1763 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1764
1765 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1766
1767 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1768 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1769
1770 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1771 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1772 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1773 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1774
1775 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1776 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1777
1778 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1779
1780 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1781 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1782
1783 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1784
1785 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1786 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1787 proper #defines.
1788
1789 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1790
1791 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1792
1793 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1794
1795 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1796 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1797
1798 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1799 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1800 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1801
1802 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1803 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1804 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1805
1806 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1807 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1808 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1809
1810 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1811 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1812 <swb@nconnect.net>.
1813
1814 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1815 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1816
1817 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1818 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1819
1820 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1821 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1822
1823 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1824 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1825 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1826
1827 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1828 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1829
1830 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1831 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1832 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1833
1834 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1835 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1836 <rmg@netapp.com>.
1837
1838 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1839 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1840
1841 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1842 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1843 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1844 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1845
1846 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1847 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1848
1849 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1850
1851 * Released nmh-1.0.
1852
1853 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1854 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1855 would not be changed.
1856
1857 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1858 one from the Apache web server.
1859
1860 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1861 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1862
1863 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1864 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1865 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1866
1867 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1868
1869 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1870
1871 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1872 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1873 verbose printing).
1874
1875 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1876 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1877 removes a bad race condition.
1878
1879 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1880 style drop file.
1881
1882 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1883 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1884 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1885
1886 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1887 sequence information.
1888
1889 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1890 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1891
1892 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1893 count.
1894
1895 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1896 is empty.
1897
1898 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1899
1900 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1901 interpret 034 as octal.
1902
1903 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1904
1905 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1906 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1907
1908 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1909 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1910
1911 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1912 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1913
1914 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1915 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1916
1917 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1918 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1919
1920 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1921 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1922 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1923
1924 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1925 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1926 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1927
1928 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1929
1930 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1931
1932 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1933 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1934 file "mhoutsbr.c".
1935
1936 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1937
1938 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1939 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1940
1941 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1942 header field information.
1943
1944 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1945 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1946
1947 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1948 values when parsing a content.
1949
1950 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1951 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1952
1953 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1954 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1955
1956 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1957 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1958
1959 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1960 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1961
1962 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1963
1964 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1965
1966 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1967
1968 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1969
1970 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1971 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1972 read.
1973
1974 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1975 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1976
1977 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1978 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1979 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1980 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1981 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1982 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1983 be setuid/setgid.
1984
1985 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1986
1987 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1988 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1989 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1990
1991 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1992 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1993
1994 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1995
1996 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1997 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1998 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1999 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2000
2001 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2002 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2003 fix).
2004
2005 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2006 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2007 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2008 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2009 arguments.
2010
2011 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2012
2013 * Released nmh-0.27.
2014
2015 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2016 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2017
2018 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2019 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2020 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2021 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2022 with no arguments.
2023
2024 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2025 mhbuild returns an error.
2026
2027 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2028 rename the draft file.
2029
2030 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2031 use a global variable.
2032
2033 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2034 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2035
2036 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2037 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2038
2039 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2040 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2041 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2042
2043 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2044 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2045
2046 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2047 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2048 this new page.
2049
2050 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2051 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2052 viamail program.
2053
2054 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2055 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2056
2057 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2058 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2059 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2060
2061 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2062 to new function output_content_folder.
2063
2064 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2065 new function output_content_file.
2066
2067 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2068 to new function parse_format_string.
2069
2070 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2071 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2072 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2073 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2074
2075 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2076 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2077 message/external file from ftp.
2078
2079 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2080 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2081 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2082
2083 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2084 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2085 mhfree.c.
2086
2087 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2088 file mhshowsbr.c.
2089
2090 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2091 new file mhstoresbr.c
2092
2093 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2094 file mhparse.c.
2095
2096 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2097 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2098
2099 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2100 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2101
2102 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2103 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2104 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2105
2106 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2107
2108 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2109
2110 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2111 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2112 to main().
2113
2114 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2115 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2116
2117 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2118 to mhparse.c).
2119
2120 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2121
2122 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2123
2124 * Released nmh-0.26.
2125
2126 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2127 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2128 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2129 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2130
2131 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2132 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2133 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2134 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2135 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2136
2137 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2138 But it is not on by default.
2139
2140 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2141 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2142
2143 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2144
2145 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2146
2147 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2148
2149 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2150
2151 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2152 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2153
2154 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2155
2156 * Released nmh-0.25.
2157
2158 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2159 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2160 uses the original name of the library.
2161
2162 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2163 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2164 links remaining.
2165
2166 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2167 list_content and list_debug.
2168
2169 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2170
2171 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2172 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2173
2174 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2175
2176 * Released nmh-0.24.
2177
2178 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2179
2180 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2181 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2182
2183 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2184 large sequence line.
2185
2186 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2187
2188 * Released nmh-0.23.
2189
2190 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2191
2192 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2193 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2194 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2195 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2196
2197 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2198 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2199 file h/mhnsbr.h.
2200
2201 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2202
2203 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2204
2205 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2206
2207 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2208 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2209
2210 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2211 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2212
2213 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2214 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2215
2216 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2217 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2218
2219 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2220
2221 * Released nmh-0.22.
2222
2223 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2224 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2225
2226 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2227
2228 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2229 mh-profile(5) man page.
2230
2231 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2232 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2233
2234 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2235
2236 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2237
2238 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2239 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2240
2241 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2242
2243 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2244 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2245 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2246
2247 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2248 source message on the standard input.
2249
2250 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2251
2252 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2253 rather than -rfc934mode.
2254
2255 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2256 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2257 only one message.
2258
2259 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2260 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2261
2262 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2263 it is still needed.
2264
2265 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2266
2267 * Released nmh-0.21.
2268
2269 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2270 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2271
2272 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2273 encoding to use.
2274
2275 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2276 to use for text contents.
2277
2278 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2279
2280 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2281
2282 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2283
2284 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2285
2286 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2287 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2288
2289 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2290 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2291 spaces between encoded word are.
2292
2293 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2294
2295 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2296 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2297
2298 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2299 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2300 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2301
2302 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2303
2304 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2305 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2306
2307 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2308
2309 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2310
2311 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2312 ISO-8859-X character set.
2313
2314 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2315 pager more.
2316
2317 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2318 permissions, not write permissions.
2319
2320 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2321 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2322
2323 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2324 distribution.
2325
2326 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2327
2328 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2329
2330 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2331 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2332
2333 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2334 message contains valid character set.
2335
2336 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2337 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2338
2339 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2340 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2341
2342 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2343 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2344 between an encoded word and normal text.
2345
2346 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2347 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2348
2349 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2350 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2351
2352 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2353 and -help.
2354
2355 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2356 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2357 loops).
2358
2359 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2360 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2361
2362 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2363 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2364
2365 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2366
2367 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2368
2369 * Released nmh-0.20.
2370
2371 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2372
2373 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2374
2375 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2376 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2377 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2378
2379 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2380 and the To: line was missing.
2381
2382 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2383
2384 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2385
2386 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2387
2388 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2389 watch the POP transaction.
2390
2391 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2392 first, and use it if available.
2393
2394 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2395 first, and use it if available.
2396
2397 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2398
2399 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2400
2401 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2402 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2403 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2404 sequence line.
2405
2406 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2407 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2408 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2409
2410 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2411 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2412 lines.
2413
2414 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2415
2416 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2417 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2418
2419 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2420
2421 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2422 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2423
2424 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2425 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2426 message to which you are replying.
2427
2428 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2429 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2430 making group replies.
2431
2432 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2433
2434 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2435
2436 * Released nmh-0.19.
2437
2438 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2439 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2440
2441 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2442 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2443 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2444 to the end of the man page.
2445
2446 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2447 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2448 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2449 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2450 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2451 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2452
2453 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2454 pages.
2455
2456 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2457 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2458 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2459
2460 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2461 the next available number above the message number you wish
2462 to preserve.
2463
2464 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2465 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2466
2467 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2468 file sbr/seq_print.c
2469
2470 * flist will now update the current folder.
2471
2472 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2473 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2474 but now undocumented.
2475
2476 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2477 traversing folders.
2478
2479 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2480 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2481
2482 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2483
2484 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2485 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2486
2487 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2488
2489 * Released nmh-0.18.
2490
2491 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2492 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2493 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2494
2495 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2496 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2497
2498 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2499 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2500 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2501 previous public/private status.
2502
2503 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2504 correctly.
2505
2506 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2507 private sequences).
2508
2509 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2510 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2511 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2512
2513 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2514 take option to determine whether it should get current
2515 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2516 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2517
2518 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2519
2520 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2521 wait for stopped processes.
2522
2523 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2524 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2525
2526 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2527
2528 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2529
2530 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2531 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2532
2533 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2534 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2535
2536 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2537 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2538 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2539 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2540
2541 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2542 status allocation).
2543
2544 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2545 the code.
2546
2547 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2548
2549 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2550 the debugging output.
2551
2552 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2553 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2554
2555 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2556
2557 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2558
2559 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2560 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2561
2562 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2563
2564 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2565 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2566 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2567 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2568 in the given sequence.
2569
2570 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2571 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2572 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2573 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2574 subdirectories of a given directory.
2575
2576 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2577 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2578 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2579
2580 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2581 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2582
2583 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2584
2585 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2586 to 0700 (was 0711).
2587
2588 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2589 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2590 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2591
2592 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2593 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2594 are calculated at runtime.
2595
2596 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2597
2598 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2599
2600 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2601 about checking for global mh.profile.
2602
2603 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2604 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2605 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2606 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2607 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2608 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2609
2610 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2611 adding message to folder itself.
2612
2613 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2614 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2615 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2616 instead of exiting.
2617
2618 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2619 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2620 the error EEXIST.
2621
2622 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2623 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2624 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2625
2626 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2627 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2628
2629 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2630 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2631 code to use it yet).
2632
2633 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2634
2635 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2636
2637 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2638 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2639
2640 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2641 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2642
2643 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2644
2645 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2646 to folder_addmsg.c
2647
2648 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2649
2650 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2651
2652 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2653
2654 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2655
2656 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2657 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2658
2659 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2660
2661 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2662
2663 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2664
2665 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2666
2667 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2668
2669 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2670 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2671
2672 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2673 configuration files.
2674
2675 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2676
2677 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2678
2679 * Released nmh-0.17.
2680
2681 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2682
2683 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2684 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2685
2686 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2687 defined.
2688
2689 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2690 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2691
2692 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2693 number of refiled message.
2694
2695 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2696
2697 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2698 for return value of wait().
2699
2700 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2701
2702 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2703
2704 * Released nmh-0.16.
2705
2706 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2707
2708 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2709
2710 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2711 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2712 deal with binary messages, yet).
2713
2714 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2715
2716 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2717
2718 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2719 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2720 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2721 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2722 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2723 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2724
2725 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2726 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2727
2728 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2729 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2730
2731 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2732 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2733 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2734
2735 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2736
2737 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2738
2739 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2740 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2741 composition files.
2742
2743 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2744 files.
2745
2746 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2747
2748 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2749 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2750 which used unsigned chars by default.
2751
2752 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2753
2754 * Released nmh-0.15.
2755
2756 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2757 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2758
2759 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2760
2761 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2762
2763 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2764 return 0.
2765
2766 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2767 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2768 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2769
2770 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2771 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2772
2773 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2774
2775 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2776 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2777
2778 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2779 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2780 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2781 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2782
2783 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2784 and put in own subroutine.
2785
2786 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2787 and put in own subroutine.
2788
2789 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2790 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2791 refile.c to use new routine.
2792
2793 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2794
2795 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2796
2797 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2798 seq_getnum.
2799
2800 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2801 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2802 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2803
2804 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2805 no longer used.
2806
2807 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2808 adding message to sequence.
2809
2810 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2811 corresponding file in sbr.
2812
2813 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2814 file in sbr.
2815
2816 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2817
2818 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2819 all selected messages from a sequence.
2820
2821 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2822 selected messages to a sequence.
2823
2824 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2825 and m_seqok.c.
2826
2827 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2828
2829 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2830 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2831
2832 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2833
2834 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2835 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2836
2837 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2838
2839 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2840 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2841
2842 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2843
2844 * Released nmh-0.14.
2845
2846 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2847 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2848
2849 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2850
2851 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2852 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2853 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2854 environment variable.
2855
2856 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2857 draft folder facility in nmh.
2858
2859 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2860 to fmt_compile.h.
2861
2862 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2863 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2864 fmt_addr.c.
2865
2866 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2867 options.
2868
2869 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2870
2871 * Released nmh-0.13.
2872
2873 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2874 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2875 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2876 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2877 to MAXARGS).
2878
2879 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2880 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2881
2882 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2883
2884 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2885 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2886
2887 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2888
2889 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2890 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

2901
2902 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2903 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2904
2905 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2906 mp->attrstats with macros.
2907
2908 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2909 in msh.c instead.
2910
2911 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2912 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2913
2914 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2915 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2916
2917 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2918 will suppress the display of the message header.
2919
2920 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2921
2922 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2932 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2933
2934 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2935 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2936

2938
2939 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.

2942 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2943
2944 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2945 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2955
2956 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2957
2958 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2959 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.

2961 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2962 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2963
2964 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2965 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.

2973
2974 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2975 of missing tabs in regex.

2989
2990 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2991
2992 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2993 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2994
2995 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2996
2997 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2998
2999 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3000 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3001
3002 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3003
3004 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3005 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3006
3007 * Released nmh-0.08.
3008
3009 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3010 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3011 locking database itself.
3012
3013 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3014
3015 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3016
3017 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3018 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3019 option.
3020
3021 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3022 rather than mmdf format.
3023
3024 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3025 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3026 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3027 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3028
3029 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3030
3031 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3032
3033 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3034 added to packf.
3035
3036 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3037 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3038 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3039
3040 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3041 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3042 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3043
3044 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3045
3046 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3047 can still easily change this in config.h).
3048
3049 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3050 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3051 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3052
3053 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3054
3055 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3056 than tzset and external timezone variable.

3069 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3070 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3071
3072 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3073 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3074 on SCO 5.x.
3075
3076 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3077 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3078
3079 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3080 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3081
3082 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3083
3084 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3085
3086 * Added configure check for tzset.
3087
3088 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3089
3090 * Released nmh-0.06.
3091
3092 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3093 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3094
3095 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3096 many such machines around anymore.
3097
3098 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3099 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3100
3101 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3102 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3103
3104 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3107 pre-generated version if necessary.
3108
3109 * Released nmh-0.05.
3110
3111 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3112 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3113 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3114 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3115
3116 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3117 be linked in one pass.
3118
3119 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3120
3121 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3122 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3123
3124 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3125
3126 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3127
3128 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3129
3130 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3131 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3132 become the current folder.
3133
3134 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3135
3136 * Released nmh-0.04.

3139 it.
3140
3141 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3142
3143 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3144 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3145 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3146
3147 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3148
3149 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3150 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3151
3152 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3153
3154 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3155 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3156 using POP.
3157
3158 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3159 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3160
3161 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3162
3163 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3164 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3165 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3166 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3167 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3168 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3169
3170 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3171
3172 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3173 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3174
3175 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3176 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3177
3178 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3179
3180 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3181 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3182
3183 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3184
3185 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3186 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3187 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3188
3189 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3190
3191 * Released nmh-0.03.
3192
3193 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3194 .mh_sequence file existed.
3195
3196 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3197 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3198
3199 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3200 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3201 man page.
3202
3203 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3204
3205 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3206 flist man page.
3207
3208 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3209
3210 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3211 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3212 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3213
3214 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3215
3216 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3217 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3218 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3219
3220 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3221
3222 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3223 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3224
3225 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3226
3227 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3228
3229 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3230 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3231 directory from where the source code is located.
3232
3233 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3234

3252
3253 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3254
3255 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3256 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3257 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3258 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3259 rather than in script.
3260
3261 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3262
3263 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3264
3265 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3266 macro defined on Solaris.
3267
3268 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3269
3270 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3271 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3272
3273 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3274 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3275 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3276 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3277 options if enabled.
3278
3279 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3280
3281 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3282 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3283
3284 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3285 correctly found.
3286
3287 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3288
3289 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3290
3291 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3292 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3293
3294 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3295
3296 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3297 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3298
3299 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3300
3301 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3302 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3303 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3304 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3305 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3306 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3307
3308 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3309
3310 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3311
3312 * Released nmh-0.01.
3313
3314 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3315 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3316 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3317 have POSIX signals.
3318
3319 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3320

3323
3324 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3325
3326 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3327 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3328
3329 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3330
3331 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3332 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3333 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3334 script to find_program.
3335
3336 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3337
3338 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3339 speed up -recurse option.
3340
3341 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3342 yet, but it compiles :-)
3343
3344 * Changed default location for install to
3345 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3346 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3347 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3348 level Makefile.
3349
3350 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3351 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3352 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
