1 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
3 * test/runtest: automatically run setup-test if it hasn't already
4 been done. Improve error handling in test script with 'set -e'.
6 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
8 * h/mh.h: raised NAMESZ from 128 to 999. RFC 2822 limits line
9 lengths to 998 characters, so a header name can be at most that long.
10 m_getfld limits header names to 2 less than NAMESZ, which is fine,
11 because header names must be followed by a colon. Add one for
14 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
16 * sbr/m_getfld.c: in warning message, use NAMESZ-2 instead of
17 NAMESZ-1 bytes because the message says "exceeds", not
18 "is greater than or equal to".
20 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
22 * docs/MAIL.FILTERING: added note on removing procmail -f or
23 -r options to try to suppress generation of a "From " line on
26 2008-08-14 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
28 * test/setup-test: Don't run autogen.sh unless needed. Build in a
29 blddir under the temporary directory so as not to interfere with
30 whatever the developer may be doing in the source directory.
31 If the temporary directory already exists, rebuild and install it.
33 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
35 * sbr/ambigsw.c: Send print_sw output to stderr. This avoids
36 strange problems with scan `pick -bogus`, not to mention being
39 * sbr/getans.c, sbr/print_help.c, uip/msh.c: Send print_sw output
42 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/print_sw.c (print_sw): Add FILE * argument
43 and send output there rather than to stdout.
45 * test/tests/pick/test-stderr: Add test that error messages don't
46 end up going to stdout.
48 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
50 * uip/pick.c: Print matching messages immediately, instead of
51 waiting until the very end to print anything.
52 Ensure valid sequence name as soon as we parse it from command,
53 instead of searching the messages first.
55 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
57 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/popi.c: Remove popi.c, which has been dead
58 since PatchSet 257 (2000/06/12 11:07:34 UTC).
60 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
62 * h/mhparse.h: Move interfaces also used by mhbuildsbr.c here
65 * uip/Makefile.in (mhbuild): Build with mhparse.o.
67 * uip/mhbuildsbr.c: Drop the duplication of mhparse.c.
69 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
70 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c: Drop check swdeclaration, which is
73 * uip/mhparse.c: Move some declarations to mhparse.h, and remove
74 'static' from the definitions here.
75 (get_ctinfo): Take magic mhbuild support from mhbuildsbr.c's copy,
77 (incl_name_value, extract_name_value): Move from mhbuildsbr.c to
78 support get_ctinfo change).
79 (get_content, open7Bit): Add Content-Disposition support, added to
80 mhbuildsbr.c's copy in mhbuildsbr.c r1.12 (PatchSet 549).
81 (InitText): Default to CHARSET_UNSPECIFIED instead of "US-ASCII",
82 as mhbuildsbr.c's copy did. Explain termproc.
83 (openBase64, openQuoted, open7Bit): Fix comment from r1.5:
84 suffixes, not prefixes.
85 (openMail): Explain showproc.
87 * test/tests/mhshow/test-cte-binary: Add test for
88 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary (Debian #136976).
90 * test/tests/mhbuild/test-forw: Add an mhbuild test, testing forw
91 with and without RFC-934 mode. More mhbuild tests would be nice.
93 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
95 * test/tests/bad-input/test-header: Add test for it.
97 * sbr/m_getfld.c: If we reach the end of the line without finding
98 a ':' when parsing a header field, treat that line as the
99 beginning of the body rather than blowing up. These messages are
100 usually spam, but it's nice to be able to at least scan them.
102 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
104 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
107 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
108 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
109 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
111 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
113 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
114 autotools in the right order
115 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
117 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
118 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
119 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
121 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
123 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
124 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
126 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
128 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
129 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
130 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
131 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
132 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
134 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
136 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
139 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
141 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
142 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
143 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
144 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
145 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
146 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
147 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
149 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
151 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
152 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
154 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
155 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
156 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
157 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
158 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
160 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
161 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
162 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
164 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
165 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
166 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
167 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
168 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
169 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
170 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
171 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
172 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
174 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
176 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
179 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
181 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
182 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
183 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
184 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
185 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
186 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
188 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
190 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
192 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
194 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
195 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
198 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
199 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
200 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
202 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
205 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
207 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
208 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
209 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
211 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
212 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
213 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
215 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
217 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
218 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
219 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
220 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
221 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
222 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
223 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
225 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
227 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
228 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
230 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
232 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
233 with multibyte support.
235 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
236 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
237 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
238 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
240 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
242 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
243 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
245 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
246 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
248 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
250 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
251 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
252 the address of a static array.
254 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
256 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
257 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
259 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
261 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
262 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
263 This allows users to masquerade with the default
264 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
265 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
266 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
269 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
271 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
272 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
273 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
274 ruserpass() has a void return type.
276 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
277 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
278 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
279 provide memmove() substitute implementation
281 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
282 source directory' feature
284 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
285 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
287 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
289 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
290 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
291 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
294 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
296 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
297 is the wrong approach.
299 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
300 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
301 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
304 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
305 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
306 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
307 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
308 broken for continued lines from the server.
310 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
312 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
313 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
315 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
317 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
319 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
322 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
324 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
326 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
328 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
329 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
330 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
331 obsolete feature of autoconf
333 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
335 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
336 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
337 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
339 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
341 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
342 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
344 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
346 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
349 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
351 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
352 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
353 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
354 following done() (should never be reached).
356 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
358 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
359 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
361 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
363 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
364 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
366 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
368 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
369 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
370 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
371 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
372 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
373 acconfig.h if you must.
375 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
377 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
378 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
379 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
380 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
382 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
384 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
387 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
389 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
390 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
391 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
392 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
393 have Content-Disposition.
395 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
397 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
400 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
402 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
403 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
405 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
407 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
408 encoded block is empty
410 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
412 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
413 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
414 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
417 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
419 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
420 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
423 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
425 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
426 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
427 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
428 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
431 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
432 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
434 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
436 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
437 function num_digits into utils.c
439 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
441 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
442 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
443 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
445 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
447 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
448 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
449 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
450 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
451 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
452 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
453 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
454 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
456 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
458 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
459 Content-Disposition header.
461 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
463 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
464 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
465 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
466 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
467 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
468 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
469 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
470 users to easily accomodate that by adding
471 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
473 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
475 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
476 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
478 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
480 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
482 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
483 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
485 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
486 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
488 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
490 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
491 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
492 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
493 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
494 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
497 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
499 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
500 widths, restoring right justification feature
502 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
504 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
505 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
506 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
508 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
511 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
513 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
514 handling multi column characters.
516 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
518 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
520 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
522 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
523 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
526 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
528 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
530 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
532 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
535 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
537 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
540 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
542 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
543 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
544 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
545 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
547 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
549 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
550 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
551 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
552 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
553 where configure's autodetection fails.
555 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
557 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
558 configure script change.
560 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
562 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
563 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
564 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
567 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
569 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
570 the context is only read once.
572 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
574 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
575 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
577 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
579 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
580 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
582 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
583 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
586 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
587 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
590 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
592 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
593 vi isn't found during build.
595 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
597 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
598 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
600 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
601 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
602 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
604 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
606 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
607 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
609 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
610 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
611 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
612 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
615 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
616 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
617 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
619 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
620 entry in the context file.
622 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
624 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
625 problems on some systems
627 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
628 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
630 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
632 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
633 sendmail isn't found during build.
635 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
637 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
639 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
641 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
642 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
644 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
645 references to the web page and mailing list locations
647 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
648 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
650 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
653 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
655 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
656 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
657 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
659 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
660 was configured with --enable-apop.
662 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
663 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
664 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
666 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
667 new versions of flex.
669 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
670 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
671 doesn't guess wrongly.
673 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
675 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
676 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
678 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
679 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
681 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
682 files with numbers as names
684 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
686 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
688 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
690 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
692 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
693 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
695 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
697 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
700 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
701 test/report error writing to stdout
703 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
705 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
707 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
708 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
709 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
711 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
712 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
713 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
715 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
717 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
718 character set used by the current locale
720 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
721 message's filename overflows an int when converted
723 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
724 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
726 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
728 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
731 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
733 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
734 from Michael Richardson.
736 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
737 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
739 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
741 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
742 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
744 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
746 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
747 find sub-parts of the specified part
749 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
751 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
752 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
753 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
754 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
755 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
756 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
757 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
760 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
762 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
763 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
764 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
767 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
768 refiling with -src option.
770 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
772 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
774 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
776 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
777 mailpath being overwritten.
779 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
781 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
782 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
783 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
784 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
785 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
786 reinitializes the tmp file string.
788 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
789 if a format string was read from the profile.
791 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
792 path for the external hook.
794 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
796 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
797 another location for ndbm.
799 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
801 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
803 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
805 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
808 136976 - Handle binary content messages
809 143427 - mh-format.man typo
810 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
811 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
812 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
813 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
814 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
815 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
816 181867 - typo for nmh.man
818 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
820 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
821 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
822 contitional code which will result in cached data to
823 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
824 and parse on the first use.
825 * Remove some unused flag bits.
827 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
829 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
830 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
832 #578 - repl leaks umask
833 #1393 - sortm core dumps
834 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
835 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
836 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
838 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
839 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
841 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
843 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
844 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
846 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
848 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
849 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
850 to docs/README.about.
852 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
854 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
856 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
857 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
858 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
859 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
862 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
864 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
865 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
866 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
867 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
868 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
869 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
872 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
873 summary configure prints out.
875 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
876 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
877 subjectively more readable) format.
879 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
881 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
884 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
886 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
887 19xx when it's not necessary.
889 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
891 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
892 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
895 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
896 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
897 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
898 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
899 the man pages correctly.
901 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
903 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
905 * Finished manpages ali-prev
907 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
908 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
909 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
912 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
913 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
914 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
915 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
917 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
919 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
920 the formatting rules I've been using.
924 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
926 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
927 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
928 used in the manpages.
930 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
931 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
932 read in the contents of the file as the variable
935 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
936 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
937 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
938 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
939 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
940 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
941 bold flags and italicized parameters.
943 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
945 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
946 --with-locking option.
948 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
949 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
950 information was not being communicated to the
951 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
952 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
953 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
954 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
955 undefined symbols problems.
957 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
958 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
959 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
960 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
961 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
962 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
963 for a genuine krb4 installation.
965 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
967 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
968 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
970 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
972 * Made a new ./configure option called
973 "--with-locking" that allows the file
974 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
975 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
977 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
978 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
979 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
980 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
981 the user that these are the valid options, and
982 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
985 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
987 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
988 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
989 committed to supporting flex only, since
990 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
991 string, as well as other problems documented
992 below and on nmh-workers.
994 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
995 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
996 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
999 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
1000 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
1002 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1004 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
1005 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
1006 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
1008 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1010 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
1011 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
1013 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1015 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
1016 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
1017 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
1018 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
1019 couldn't correctly identify them.
1021 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1023 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
1024 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
1025 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
1026 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
1027 not depending on an external archive.
1029 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
1030 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
1031 mts/generic is no longer built.
1033 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1035 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
1036 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
1037 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
1038 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
1039 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
1040 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
1041 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
1042 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
1044 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1046 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
1047 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
1050 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1052 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
1053 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
1054 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
1057 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
1058 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
1059 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
1060 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
1062 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
1063 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
1064 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
1065 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
1066 merged into the smtp code).
1068 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
1069 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
1070 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
1073 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
1074 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
1075 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
1076 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
1077 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
1078 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
1079 in the appropriate Makefile.in
1081 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1083 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
1084 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
1085 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
1086 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
1087 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
1088 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
1089 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
1090 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
1091 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
1092 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
1093 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
1095 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1097 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
1098 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
1099 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
1100 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1101 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1102 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1103 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1104 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1105 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1107 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1109 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1110 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1111 able to access them.
1113 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1115 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1116 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1118 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1120 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1121 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1122 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1123 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1125 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1127 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1128 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1129 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1130 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1131 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1133 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1134 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1136 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1138 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1140 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1141 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1142 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1143 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1145 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1146 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1147 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1148 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1150 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1151 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1152 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1153 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1155 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1156 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1157 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1159 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1161 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1162 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1163 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1164 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1165 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1166 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1169 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1170 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1172 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1173 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1175 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1177 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1179 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1181 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1182 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1183 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1184 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1186 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1188 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1189 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1191 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1193 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1195 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1196 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1199 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1201 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1202 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1203 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1204 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1206 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1208 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1209 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1210 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1211 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1212 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1214 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1216 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1217 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1219 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1220 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1222 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1224 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1226 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1227 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1228 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1230 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1232 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1235 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1236 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1238 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1240 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1241 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1243 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1245 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1246 inc does not need to be setgid.
1248 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1250 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1251 library, as found on Debian systems.
1253 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1255 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1257 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1258 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1259 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1260 case-insensitivity flag.
1262 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1264 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1265 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1267 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1269 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1270 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1271 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1272 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1273 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1274 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1275 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1276 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1277 getting moved aside).
1279 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1280 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1282 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1284 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1285 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1286 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1287 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1288 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1289 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1290 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1291 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1292 the prototype, but never sets it.
1294 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1295 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1296 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1297 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1298 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1299 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1301 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1302 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1303 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1304 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1305 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1307 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1309 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1310 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1313 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1314 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1315 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1316 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1317 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1318 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1319 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1321 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1323 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1325 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1326 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1327 this works on other systems.
1329 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1331 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1332 checks for write failures.
1334 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1336 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1338 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1341 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1343 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1345 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1347 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1348 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1351 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1353 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1354 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1355 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1356 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1358 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1360 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1361 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1364 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1365 as well as Makefiles.
1367 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1369 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1370 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1371 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1372 should make maintainability easier.
1374 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1375 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1376 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1377 whatever you know works.
1379 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1381 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1382 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1383 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1385 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1386 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1387 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1388 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1390 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1391 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1392 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1394 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1395 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1396 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1397 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1398 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1400 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1401 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1402 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1403 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1404 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1405 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1406 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1407 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1408 from the BSD version.
1410 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1411 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1412 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1414 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1415 in ruserpass.c also.
1417 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1420 This happens on solaris:
1423 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1424 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1428 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1430 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1431 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1433 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1435 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1436 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1437 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1438 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1439 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1440 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1441 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1442 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1443 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1444 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1445 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1447 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1448 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1449 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1450 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1451 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1452 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1455 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1456 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1457 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1458 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1459 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1461 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1462 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1464 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1466 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1467 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1468 to stdin, such as exmh.
1470 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1471 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1472 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1475 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1477 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1478 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1479 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1480 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1481 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1482 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1483 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1485 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1487 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1488 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1490 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1492 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1493 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1495 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1497 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1500 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1501 along with any -host or -user option.
1503 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1505 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1507 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1508 process was fresh in my mind.
1510 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1512 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1513 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1515 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1517 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1519 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1522 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1523 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1524 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1525 part of the program's name.
1527 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1528 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1531 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1533 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1534 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1535 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1536 single-character format would cause programs using this
1537 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1538 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1539 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1540 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1543 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1545 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1546 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1547 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1548 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1549 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1550 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1552 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1553 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1554 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1555 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1556 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1557 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1558 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1559 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1561 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1562 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1563 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1564 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1565 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1566 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1567 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1568 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1569 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1570 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1572 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1574 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1575 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1577 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1578 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1580 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1585 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1587 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1588 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1589 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1590 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1592 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1593 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1594 problem in the routine.
1596 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1598 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1599 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1601 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1602 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1603 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1606 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1608 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1609 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1610 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1611 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1612 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1613 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1614 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1615 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1616 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1617 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1619 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1621 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1622 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1623 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1624 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1625 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1626 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1627 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1628 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1629 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1630 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1631 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1632 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1634 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1635 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1636 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1637 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1638 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1640 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1643 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1645 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1646 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1647 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1648 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1651 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1653 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1655 * Applied, after some finessing,
1656 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1658 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1660 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1662 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1663 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1664 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1665 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1667 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1669 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1670 forgetting to do so!).
1672 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1673 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1674 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1675 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1676 arguments to enable all three types.
1678 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1679 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1681 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1682 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1683 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1684 updated copy of mts.conf.
1686 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1688 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1689 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1690 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1692 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1694 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1696 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1697 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1698 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1700 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1701 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1702 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1704 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1705 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1706 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1708 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1710 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1712 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1714 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1716 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1717 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1719 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1720 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1721 certain suffix to run properly.
1723 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1724 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1725 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1727 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1728 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1729 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1730 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1731 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1732 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1733 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1735 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1737 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1738 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1739 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1740 until some year far in the future).
1742 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1744 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1746 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1747 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1749 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1750 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1753 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1755 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1756 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1757 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1758 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1759 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1760 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1762 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1764 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1766 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1767 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1768 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1770 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1771 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1772 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1773 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1774 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1775 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1778 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1779 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1780 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1781 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1782 of masquerading individually.
1784 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1785 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1786 GECOS field delimiters.
1788 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1790 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1791 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1792 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1793 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1794 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1795 and explaining the feature.
1797 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1799 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1800 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1803 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1804 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1805 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1807 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1808 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1809 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1810 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1812 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1813 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1814 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1817 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1819 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1820 code to be executed.
1822 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1824 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1826 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1827 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1828 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1829 quotes embedded in them.
1831 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1833 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1834 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1835 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1836 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1837 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1838 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1839 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1842 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1843 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1844 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1845 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1846 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1848 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1850 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1852 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1853 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1854 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1855 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1857 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1860 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1862 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1864 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1866 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1867 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1868 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1870 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1873 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1875 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1876 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1877 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1878 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1879 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1880 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1882 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1883 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1885 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1887 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1890 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1892 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1893 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1894 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1897 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1898 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1899 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1900 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1901 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1902 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1903 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1904 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1905 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1906 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1907 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1908 processing that post has).
1910 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1912 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1913 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1914 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1915 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1916 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1917 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1920 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1922 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1924 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1926 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1928 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1929 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1931 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1934 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1936 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1937 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1938 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1941 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1943 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1944 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1945 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1946 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1947 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1948 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1950 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1952 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1954 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1956 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1957 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1958 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1959 caught again. This works for now.
1961 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1963 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1965 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1966 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1968 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1970 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1971 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1973 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1975 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1977 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1979 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1980 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1982 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1984 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1985 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1986 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1987 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1988 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1991 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1993 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1994 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1995 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1997 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1998 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
2001 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2003 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
2004 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
2005 to a directory on another device with more free space.
2007 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2009 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
2010 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
2012 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2014 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
2017 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
2018 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
2020 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
2021 macros, regardless of platform.
2023 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
2024 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2026 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
2027 with x-conversions=gzip.
2029 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2031 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
2034 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
2035 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
2036 implicit definition of ioctl().
2038 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
2039 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
2040 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
2041 want to mess with them.
2043 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2045 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
2046 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
2048 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
2049 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2051 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
2052 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
2053 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
2055 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
2056 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
2057 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
2059 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
2060 function initgroups.
2062 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
2065 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
2066 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
2069 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
2070 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
2073 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
2074 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
2078 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2080 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
2081 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
2082 preventing compilation on at least linux.
2084 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
2085 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
2087 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2089 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
2091 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
2092 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
2093 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
2094 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
2096 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
2097 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
2099 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2101 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2103 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2105 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2106 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2108 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2110 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2111 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2113 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2114 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2115 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2116 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2118 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2119 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2121 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2123 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2124 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2126 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2128 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2129 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2132 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2134 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2136 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2138 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2139 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2141 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2142 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2143 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2145 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2146 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2147 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2149 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2150 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2151 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2153 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2154 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2157 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2158 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2160 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2161 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2163 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2164 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2166 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2167 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2168 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2170 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2171 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2173 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2174 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2175 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2177 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2178 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2181 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2182 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2184 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2185 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2186 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2187 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2189 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2190 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2192 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2196 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2197 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2198 would not be changed.
2200 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2201 one from the Apache web server.
2203 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2204 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2206 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2207 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2208 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2210 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2212 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2214 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2215 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2218 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2219 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2220 removes a bad race condition.
2222 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2225 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2226 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2227 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2229 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2230 sequence information.
2232 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2233 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2235 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2238 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2241 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2243 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2244 interpret 034 as octal.
2246 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2248 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2249 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2251 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2252 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2254 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2255 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2257 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2258 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2260 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2261 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2263 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2264 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2265 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2267 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2268 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2269 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2271 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2273 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2275 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2276 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2279 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2281 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2282 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2284 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2285 header field information.
2287 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2288 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2290 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2291 values when parsing a content.
2293 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2294 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2296 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2297 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2299 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2300 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2302 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2303 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2305 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2307 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2309 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2311 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2313 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2314 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2317 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2318 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2320 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2321 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2322 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2323 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2324 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2325 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2328 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2330 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2331 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2332 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2334 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2335 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2337 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2339 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2340 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2341 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2342 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2344 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2345 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2348 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2349 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2350 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2351 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2354 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2356 * Released nmh-0.27.
2358 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2359 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2361 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2362 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2363 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2364 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2367 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2368 mhbuild returns an error.
2370 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2371 rename the draft file.
2373 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2374 use a global variable.
2376 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2377 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2379 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2380 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2382 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2383 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2384 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2386 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2387 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2389 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2390 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2393 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2394 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2397 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2398 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2400 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2401 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2402 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2404 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2405 to new function output_content_folder.
2407 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2408 new function output_content_file.
2410 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2411 to new function parse_format_string.
2413 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2414 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2415 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2416 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2418 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2419 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2420 message/external file from ftp.
2422 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2423 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2424 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2426 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2427 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2430 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2433 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2434 new file mhstoresbr.c
2436 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2439 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2440 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2442 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2443 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2445 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2446 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2447 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2449 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2451 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2453 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2454 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2457 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2458 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2460 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2463 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2465 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2467 * Released nmh-0.26.
2469 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2470 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2471 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2472 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2474 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2475 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2476 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2477 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2478 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2480 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2481 But it is not on by default.
2483 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2484 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2486 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2488 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2490 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2492 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2494 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2495 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2497 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2499 * Released nmh-0.25.
2501 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2502 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2503 uses the original name of the library.
2505 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2506 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2509 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2510 list_content and list_debug.
2512 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2514 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2515 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2517 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2519 * Released nmh-0.24.
2521 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2523 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2524 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2526 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2527 large sequence line.
2529 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2531 * Released nmh-0.23.
2533 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2535 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2536 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2537 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2538 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2540 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2541 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2544 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2546 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2548 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2550 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2551 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2553 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2554 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2556 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2557 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2559 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2560 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2562 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2564 * Released nmh-0.22.
2566 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2567 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2569 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2571 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2572 mh-profile(5) man page.
2574 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2575 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2577 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2579 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2581 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2582 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2584 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2586 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2587 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2588 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2590 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2591 source message on the standard input.
2593 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2595 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2596 rather than -rfc934mode.
2598 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2599 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2602 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2603 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2605 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2608 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2610 * Released nmh-0.21.
2612 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2613 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2615 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2618 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2619 to use for text contents.
2621 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2623 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2625 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2627 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2629 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2630 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2632 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2633 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2634 spaces between encoded word are.
2636 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2638 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2639 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2641 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2642 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2643 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2645 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2647 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2648 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2650 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2652 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2654 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2655 ISO-8859-X character set.
2657 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2660 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2661 permissions, not write permissions.
2663 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2664 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2666 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2669 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2671 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2673 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2674 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2676 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2677 message contains valid character set.
2679 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2680 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2682 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2683 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2685 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2686 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2687 between an encoded word and normal text.
2689 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2690 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2692 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2693 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2695 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2698 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2699 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2702 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2703 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2705 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2706 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2708 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2710 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2712 * Released nmh-0.20.
2714 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2716 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2718 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2719 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2720 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2722 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2723 and the To: line was missing.
2725 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2727 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2729 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2731 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2732 watch the POP transaction.
2734 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2735 first, and use it if available.
2737 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2738 first, and use it if available.
2740 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2742 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2744 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2745 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2746 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2749 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2750 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2751 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2753 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2754 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2757 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2759 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2760 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2762 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2764 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2765 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2767 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2768 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2769 message to which you are replying.
2771 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2772 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2773 making group replies.
2775 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2777 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2779 * Released nmh-0.19.
2781 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2782 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2784 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2785 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2786 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2787 to the end of the man page.
2789 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2790 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2791 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2792 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2793 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2794 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2796 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2799 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2800 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2801 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2803 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2804 the next available number above the message number you wish
2807 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2808 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2810 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2811 file sbr/seq_print.c
2813 * flist will now update the current folder.
2815 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2816 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2817 but now undocumented.
2819 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2822 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2823 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2825 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2827 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2828 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2830 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2832 * Released nmh-0.18.
2834 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2835 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2836 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2838 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2839 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2841 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2842 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2843 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2844 previous public/private status.
2846 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2849 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2852 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2853 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2854 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2856 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2857 take option to determine whether it should get current
2858 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2859 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2861 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2863 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2864 wait for stopped processes.
2866 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2867 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2869 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2871 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2873 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2874 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2876 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2877 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2879 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2880 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2881 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2882 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2884 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2887 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2890 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2892 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2893 the debugging output.
2895 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2896 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2898 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2900 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2902 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2903 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2905 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2907 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2908 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2909 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2910 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2911 in the given sequence.
2913 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2914 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2915 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2916 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2917 subdirectories of a given directory.
2919 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2920 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2921 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2923 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2924 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2926 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2928 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2931 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2932 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2933 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2935 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2936 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2937 are calculated at runtime.
2939 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2941 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2943 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2944 about checking for global mh.profile.
2946 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2947 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2948 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2949 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2950 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2951 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2953 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2954 adding message to folder itself.
2956 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2957 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2958 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2961 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2962 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2965 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2966 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2967 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2969 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2970 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2972 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2973 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2974 code to use it yet).
2976 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2978 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2980 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2981 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2983 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2984 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2986 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2988 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2991 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2993 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2995 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2997 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2999 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
3000 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
3002 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
3004 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
3006 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
3008 * Removed all the code for BERK.
3010 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
3012 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
3013 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
3015 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
3016 configuration files.
3018 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
3020 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3022 * Released nmh-0.17.
3024 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
3026 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
3027 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
3029 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
3032 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
3033 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
3035 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
3036 number of refiled message.
3038 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
3040 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
3041 for return value of wait().
3043 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
3045 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3047 * Released nmh-0.16.
3049 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3051 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
3053 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
3054 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
3055 deal with binary messages, yet).
3057 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
3059 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
3061 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
3062 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
3063 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
3064 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
3065 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
3066 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
3068 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
3069 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
3071 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
3072 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
3074 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
3075 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
3078 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
3080 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
3082 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
3083 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
3086 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
3089 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
3091 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
3092 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
3093 which used unsigned chars by default.
3095 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3097 * Released nmh-0.15.
3099 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

3104 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3106 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3109 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3110 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3111 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3113 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3114 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3116 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3118 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3119 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3121 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3122 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3123 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3124 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3126 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3127 and put in own subroutine.
3129 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3130 and put in own subroutine.
3132 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3133 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3134 refile.c to use new routine.
3136 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3138 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3140 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3143 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3144 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3145 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3147 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3150 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3151 adding message to sequence.
3153 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3154 corresponding file in sbr.
3156 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3159 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3161 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3162 all selected messages from a sequence.
3164 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3165 selected messages to a sequence.
3167 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3170 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3172 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3173 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3175 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3190 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
3192 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3194 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3195 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3196 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3197 environment variable.
3199 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3200 draft folder facility in nmh.

3214 * Released nmh-0.13.
3216 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3217 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3218 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3219 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3222 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3223 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3225 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3227 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3228 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.

3237 * Released nmh-0.12.
3239 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

3245 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
3246 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
3248 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
3249 mp->attrstats with macros.
3251 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3254 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3257 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3258 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3260 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3261 will suppress the display of the message header.
3263 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3265 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3266 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3268 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3270 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
3272 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
3274 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
3275 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3277 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3278 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3280 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3282 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3284 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3285 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3287 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3288 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
3290 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3292 * Released nmh-0.10.

3299 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3301 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
3302 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3304 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3305 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3307 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
3308 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
3310 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3312 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3313 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3315 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3317 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

3322 * Released nmh-0.09.
3324 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
3326 * Add configure check for killpg.
3328 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and

3340 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3342 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3343 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3345 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3347 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3348 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3350 * Released nmh-0.08.
3352 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3353 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3354 locking database itself.
3356 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3358 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3360 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3361 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3364 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3365 rather than mmdf format.
3367 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3368 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3369 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3370 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3372 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3374 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3376 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3379 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3380 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3381 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3383 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3384 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3385 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3387 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3389 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3390 can still easily change this in config.h).
3392 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3393 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3394 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3396 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3398 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3399 than tzset and external timezone variable.
3401 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3403 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
3405 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
3408 * Released nmh-0.07.
3410 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3412 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3413 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3415 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3416 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3419 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3420 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3422 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3423 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3425 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3427 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3429 * Added configure check for tzset.
3431 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3433 * Released nmh-0.06.
3435 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3436 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3438 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3439 many such machines around anymore.
3441 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3442 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3444 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3445 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3447 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3449 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3450 pre-generated version if necessary.
3452 * Released nmh-0.05.
3454 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3455 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3456 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3457 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3459 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3460 be linked in one pass.
3462 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3464 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3465 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3467 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3469 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3471 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3473 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3474 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3475 become the current folder.
3477 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3479 * Released nmh-0.04.
3481 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3484 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3486 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3487 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3488 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3490 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3492 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3493 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3495 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3497 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3498 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3501 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3502 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3504 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3506 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3507 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3508 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3509 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3510 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3511 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3513 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3515 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3516 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3518 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3519 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3521 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3523 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3524 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3526 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3528 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3529 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3530 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3532 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3534 * Released nmh-0.03.
3536 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3537 .mh_sequence file existed.
3539 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3540 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3542 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3543 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3546 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3548 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3551 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3553 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3554 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3555 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3557 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3559 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3560 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3561 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3563 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3565 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3566 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3568 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3570 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3572 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3573 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3574 directory from where the source code is located.
3576 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3578 * Released nmh-0.02.
3580 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3582 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3585 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3587 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3588 and sys_nerr directly.
3590 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3592 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3594 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3596 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3598 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3599 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3600 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3601 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3602 rather than in script.
3604 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3606 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3608 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3609 macro defined on Solaris.
3611 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3613 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3614 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3616 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3617 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3618 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3619 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3622 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3624 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3625 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3627 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3630 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3632 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3634 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3635 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3637 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3639 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3640 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3642 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3644 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3645 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3646 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3647 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3648 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3649 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3651 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3653 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3655 * Released nmh-0.01.
3657 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3658 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3659 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3662 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3664 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3667 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3669 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3670 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3672 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3674 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3675 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3676 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3677 script to find_program.
3679 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3681 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3682 speed up -recurse option.
3684 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3685 yet, but it compiles :-)
3687 * Changed default location for install to
3688 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3689 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3690 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3693 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3694 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3695 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
