Shantonu updated the DIFFERENCES file to no longer say that APOP isn't
[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2
3 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
4 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
5 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
6 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
7 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
8 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
9 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
10 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
11 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
12 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
13 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
14
15 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
16 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
17 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
18 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
19 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
20 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
21 out of nowhere.
22
23 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
24 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
25 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
26 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
27 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
28
29 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
30 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
31
32 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
33
34 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
35 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
36 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
37 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
38 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
39 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
40 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
41
42 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
43
44 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
45 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
46
47 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
48
49 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
50 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
51
52 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
53
54 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
55 --enable-apop.
56
57 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
58 along with any -host or -user option.
59
60 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
61
62 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
63
64 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
65 process was fresh in my mind.
66
67 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
68
69 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
70 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
71
72 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
73
74 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
75
76 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
77 patch:
78
79 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
80 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
81 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
82 part of the program's name.
83
84 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
85 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
86 to quote.
87
88 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
89
90 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
91 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
92 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
93 single-character format would cause programs using this
94 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
95 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
96 when the format string was one character. This eventually
97 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
98 in the array.
99
100 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
101
102 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
103 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
104 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
105 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
106 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
107 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
108
109 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
110 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
111 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
112 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
113 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
114 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
115 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
116 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
117
118 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
119 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
120 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
121 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
122 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
123 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
124 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
125 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
126 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
127 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
128
129 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
130
131 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
132 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
133
134 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
135 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
136
137 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
138 exit 2
139
140 and:
141
142 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
143
144 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
145 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
146 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
147 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
148
149 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
150 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
151 problem in the routine.
152
153 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
154
155 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
156 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
157
158 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
159 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
160 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
161 spool somehow.
162
163 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
164
165 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
166 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
167 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
168 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
169 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
170 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
171 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
172 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
173 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
174 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
175
176 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
177
178 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
179 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
180 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
181 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
182 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
183 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
184 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
185 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
186 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
187 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
188 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
189 interesting than a duplication of the default.
190
191 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
192 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
193 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
194 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
195 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
196
197 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
198 POP is enabled.
199
200 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
201
202 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
203 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
204 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
205 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
206 here.
207
208 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
209
210 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
211
212 * Applied, after some finessing,
213 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
214
215 Here's a patch that allows you to add
216
217 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
218
219 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
220 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
221 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
222 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
223
224 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
225
226 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
227 forgetting to do so!).
228
229 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
230 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
231 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
232 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
233 arguments to enable all three types.
234
235 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
236 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
237
238 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
239 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
240 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
241 updated copy of mts.conf.
242
243 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
244
245 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
246 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
247 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
248
249 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
250 and
251 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
252
253 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
254 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
255 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
256
257 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
258 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
259 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
260
261 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
262 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
263 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
264
265 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
266
267 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
268
269 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
270
271 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
272
273 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
274 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
275
276 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
277 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
278 certain suffix to run properly.
279
280 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
281 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
282 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
283
284 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
285 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
286 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
287 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
288 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
289 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
290 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
291
292 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
293
294 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
295 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
296 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
297 until some year far in the future).
298
299 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
300
301 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
302
303 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
304 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
305
306 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
307 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
308 corrupted.
309
310 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
311
312 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
313 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
314 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
315 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
316 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
317 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
318
319 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
320
321 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
322
323 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
324 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
325 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
326
327 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
328 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
329 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
330 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
331 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
332 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
333 leads me to:
334
335 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
336 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
337 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
338 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
339 of masquerading individually.
340
341 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
342 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
343 GECOS field delimiters.
344
345 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
346
347 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
348 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
349 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
350 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
351 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
352 and explaining the feature.
353
354 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
355
356 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
357 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
358 so).
359
360 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
361 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
362 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
363
364 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
365 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
366 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
367 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
368
369 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
370 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
371 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
372 anywhere.
373
374 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
375
376 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
377 code to be executed.
378
379 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
380
381 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
382
383 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
384 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
385 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
386 quotes embedded in them.
387
388 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
389
390 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
391 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
392 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
393 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
394 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
395 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
396 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
397 allowed to specify.
398
399 The other theory is that because you can say something like
400 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
401 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
402 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
403 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
404
405 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
406
407 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
408
409 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
410 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
411 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
412 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
413
414 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
415 KPOP server.
416
417 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
418
419 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
420
421 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
422
423 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
424 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
425 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
426
427 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
428 mhn.defaults.sh.
429
430 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
431
432 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
433 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
434 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
435 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
436 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
437 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
438
439 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
440 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
441
442 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
443
444 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
445 page.
446
447 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
448
449 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
450 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
451 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
452 to be setgid.
453
454 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
455 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
456 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
457 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
458 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
459 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
460 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
461 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
462 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
463 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
464 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
465 processing that post has).
466
467 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
468
469 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
470 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
471 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
472 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
473 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
474 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
475 Solaris 2.6).
476
477 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
478
479 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
480
481 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
482
483 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
484
485 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
486 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
487
488 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
489 command-line.
490
491 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
492
493 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
494 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
495 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
496 some development.
497
498 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
499
500 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
501 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
502 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
503 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
504 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
505 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
506
507 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
508
509 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
510
511 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
512
513 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
514 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
515 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
516 caught again. This works for now.
517
518 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
519
520 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
521
522 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
523 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
524
525 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
526
527 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
528 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
529
530 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
531
532 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
533
534 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
535
536 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
537 changes. Both need more cleanup.
538
539 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
540
541 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
542 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
543 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
544 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
545 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
546 multiple purposes.
547
548 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
549
550 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
551 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
552 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
553
554 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
555 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
556 config.guess.
557
558 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
559
560 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
561 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
562 to a directory on another device with more free space.
563
564 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
565
566 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
567 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
568
569 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
570
571 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
572 distributed.
573
574 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
575 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
576
577 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
578 macros, regardless of platform.
579
580 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
581 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
582
583 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
584 with x-conversions=gzip.
585
586 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
587
588 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
589 post.c.
590
591 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
592 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
593 implicit definition of ioctl().
594
595 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
596 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
597 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
598 want to mess with them.
599
600 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
601
602 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
603 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
604
605 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
606 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
607
608 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
609 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
610 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
611
612 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
613 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
614 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
615
616 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
617 function initgroups.
618
619 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
620 function.
621
622 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
623 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
624 to fix warnings.
625
626 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
627 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
628 prevent warnings.
629
630 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
631 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
632 statements).
633
634
635 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
636
637 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
638 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
639 preventing compilation on at least linux.
640
641 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
642 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
643
644 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
645
646 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
647
648 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
649 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
650 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
651 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
652
653 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
654 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
655
656 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
657
658 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
659
660 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
661
662 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
663 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
664
665 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
666
667 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
668 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
669
670 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
671 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
672 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
673 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
674
675 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
676 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
677
678 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
679
680 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
681 substitute it for mktemp if available.
682
683 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
684
685 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
686 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
687 proper #defines.
688
689 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
690
691 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
692
693 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
694
695 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
696 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
697
698 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
699 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
700 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
701
702 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
703 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
704 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
705
706 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
707 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
708 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
709
710 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
711 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
712 <swb@nconnect.net>.
713
714 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
715 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
716
717 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
718 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
719
720 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
721 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
722
723 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
724 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
725 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
726
727 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
728 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
729
730 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
731 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
732 <elleron@servtech.com>.
733
734 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
735 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
736 <rmg@netapp.com>.
737
738 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
739 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
740
741 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
742 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
743 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
744 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
745
746 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
747 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
748
749 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
750
751 * Released nmh-1.0.
752
753 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
754 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
755 would not be changed.
756
757 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
758 one from the Apache web server.
759
760 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
761 (this should have been done a long time ago).
762
763 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
764 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
765 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
766
767 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
768
769 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
770
771 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
772 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
773 verbose printing).
774
775 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
776 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
777 removes a bad race condition.
778
779 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
780 style drop file.
781
782 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
783 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
784 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
785
786 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
787 sequence information.
788
789 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
790 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
791
792 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
793 count.
794
795 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
796 is empty.
797
798 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
799
800 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
801 interpret 034 as octal.
802
803 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
804
805 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
806 mhstore, and mhbuild.
807
808 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
809 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
810
811 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
812 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
813
814 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
815 in the c_cefile structure when building.
816
817 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
818 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
819
820 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
821 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
822 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
823
824 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
825 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
826 and mhshow. Updated man pages
827
828 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
829
830 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
831
832 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
833 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
834 file "mhoutsbr.c".
835
836 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
837
838 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
839 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
840
841 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
842 header field information.
843
844 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
845 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
846
847 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
848 values when parsing a content.
849
850 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
851 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
852
853 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
854 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
855
856 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
857 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
858
859 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
860 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
861
862 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
863
864 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
865
866 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
867
868 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
869
870 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
871 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
872 read.
873
874 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
875 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
876
877 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
878 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
879 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
880 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
881 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
882 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
883 be setuid/setgid.
884
885 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
886
887 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
888 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
889 buffer length checks for this parameter.
890
891 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
892 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
893
894 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
895
896 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
897 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
898 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
899 of the limits on the length of command lines.
900
901 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
902 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
903 fix).
904
905 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
906 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
907 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
908 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
909 arguments.
910
911 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
912
913 * Released nmh-0.27.
914
915 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
916 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
917
918 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
919 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
920 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
921 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
922 with no arguments.
923
924 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
925 mhbuild returns an error.
926
927 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
928 rename the draft file.
929
930 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
931 use a global variable.
932
933 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
934 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
935
936 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
937 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
938
939 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
940 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
941 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
942
943 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
944 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
945
946 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
947 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
948 this new page.
949
950 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
951 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
952 viamail program.
953
954 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
955 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
956
957 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
958 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
959 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
960
961 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
962 to new function output_content_folder.
963
964 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
965 new function output_content_file.
966
967 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
968 to new function parse_format_string.
969
970 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
971 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
972 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
973 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
974
975 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
976 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
977 message/external file from ftp.
978
979 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
980 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
981 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
982
983 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
984 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
985 mhfree.c.
986
987 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
988 file mhshowsbr.c.
989
990 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
991 new file mhstoresbr.c
992
993 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
994 file mhparse.c.
995
996 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
997 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
998
999 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1000 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1001
1002 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1003 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1004 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1005
1006 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1007
1008 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1009
1010 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1011 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1012 to main().
1013
1014 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1015 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1016
1017 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1018 to mhparse.c).
1019
1020 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1021
1022 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1023
1024 * Released nmh-0.26.
1025
1026 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1027 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1028 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1029 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1030
1031 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1032 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1033 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1034 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1035 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1036
1037 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1038 But it is not on by default.
1039
1040 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1041 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1042
1043 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1044
1045 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1046
1047 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1048
1049 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1050
1051 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1052 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1053
1054 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1055
1056 * Released nmh-0.25.
1057
1058 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1059 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1060 uses the original name of the library.
1061
1062 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1063 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1064 links remaining.
1065
1066 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1067 list_content and list_debug.
1068
1069 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1070
1071 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1072 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1073
1074 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1075
1076 * Released nmh-0.24.
1077
1078 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1079
1080 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1081 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1082
1083 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1084 large sequence line.
1085
1086 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1087
1088 * Released nmh-0.23.
1089
1090 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1091
1092 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1093 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1094 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1095 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1096
1097 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1098 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1099 file h/mhnsbr.h.
1100
1101 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1102
1103 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1104
1105 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1106
1107 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1108 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1109
1110 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1111 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1112
1113 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1114 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1115
1116 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1117 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1118
1119 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1120
1121 * Released nmh-0.22.
1122
1123 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1124 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1125
1126 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1127
1128 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1129 mh-profile(5) man page.
1130
1131 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1132 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1133
1134 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1135
1136 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1137
1138 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1139 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1140
1141 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1142
1143 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1144 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1145 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1146
1147 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1148 source message on the standard input.
1149
1150 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1151
1152 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1153 rather than -rfc934mode.
1154
1155 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1156 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1157 only one message.
1158
1159 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1160 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1161
1162 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1163 it is still needed.
1164
1165 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1166
1167 * Released nmh-0.21.
1168
1169 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1170 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1171
1172 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1173 encoding to use.
1174
1175 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1176 to use for text contents.
1177
1178 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1179
1180 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1181
1182 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1183
1184 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1185
1186 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1187 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1188
1189 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1190 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1191 spaces between encoded word are.
1192
1193 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1194
1195 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1196 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1197
1198 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1199 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1200 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1201
1202 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1203
1204 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1205 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1206
1207 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1208
1209 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1210
1211 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1212 ISO-8859-X character set.
1213
1214 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1215 pager more.
1216
1217 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1218 permissions, not write permissions.
1219
1220 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1221 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1222
1223 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1224 distribution.
1225
1226 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1227
1228 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1229
1230 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1231 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1232
1233 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1234 message contains valid character set.
1235
1236 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1237 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1238
1239 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1240 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1241
1242 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1243 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1244 between an encoded word and normal text.
1245
1246 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1247 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1248
1249 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1250 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1251
1252 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1253 and -help.
1254
1255 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1256 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1257 loops).
1258
1259 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1260 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1261
1262 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1263 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1264
1265 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1266
1267 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1268
1269 * Released nmh-0.20.
1270
1271 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1272
1273 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1274
1275 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1276 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1277 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1278
1279 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1280 and the To: line was missing.
1281
1282 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1283
1284 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1285
1286 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1287
1288 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1289 watch the POP transaction.
1290
1291 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1292 first, and use it if available.
1293
1294 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1295 first, and use it if available.
1296
1297 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1298
1299 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1300
1301 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1302 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1303 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1304 sequence line.
1305
1306 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1307 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1308 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1309
1310 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1311 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1312 lines.
1313
1314 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1315
1316 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1317 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1318
1319 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1320
1321 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1322 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1323
1324 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1325 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1326 message to which you are replying.
1327
1328 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1329 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1330 making group replies.
1331
1332 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1333
1334 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1335
1336 * Released nmh-0.19.
1337
1338 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1339 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1340
1341 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1342 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1343 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1344 to the end of the man page.
1345
1346 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1347 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1348 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1349 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1350 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1351 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1352
1353 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1354 pages.
1355
1356 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1357 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1358 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1359
1360 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1361 the next available number above the message number you wish
1362 to preserve.
1363
1364 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1365 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1366
1367 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1368 file sbr/seq_print.c
1369
1370 * flist will now update the current folder.
1371
1372 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1373 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1374 but now undocumented.
1375
1376 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1377 traversing folders.
1378
1379 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1380 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1381
1382 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1383
1384 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1385 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1386
1387 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1388
1389 * Released nmh-0.18.
1390
1391 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1392 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1393 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1394
1395 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1396 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1397
1398 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1399 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1400 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1401 previous public/private status.
1402
1403 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1404 correctly.
1405
1406 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1407 private sequences).
1408
1409 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1410 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1411 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1412
1413 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1414 take option to determine whether it should get current
1415 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1416 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1417
1418 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1419
1420 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1421 wait for stopped processes.
1422
1423 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1424 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1425
1426 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1427
1428 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1429
1430 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1431 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1432
1433 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1434 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1435
1436 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1437 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1438 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1439 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1440
1441 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1442 status allocation).
1443
1444 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1445 the code.
1446
1447 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1448
1449 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1450 the debugging output.
1451
1452 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1453 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1454
1455 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1456
1457 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1458
1459 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1460 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1461
1462 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1463
1464 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1465 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1466 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1467 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1468 in the given sequence.
1469
1470 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1471 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1472 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1473 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1474 subdirectories of a given directory.
1475
1476 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1477 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1478 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1479
1480 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1481 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1482
1483 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1484
1485 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1486 to 0700 (was 0711).
1487
1488 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1489 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1490 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1491
1492 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1493 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1494 are calculated at runtime.
1495
1496 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1497
1498 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1499
1500 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1501 about checking for global mh.profile.
1502
1503 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1504 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1505 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1506 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1507 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1508 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1509
1510 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1511 adding message to folder itself.
1512
1513 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1514 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1515 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1516 instead of exiting.
1517
1518 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1519 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1520 the error EEXIST.
1521
1522 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1523 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1524 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1525
1526 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1527 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1528
1529 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1530 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1531 code to use it yet).
1532
1533 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1534
1535 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1536
1537 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1538 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1539
1540 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1541 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1542
1543 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1544
1545 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1546 to folder_addmsg.c
1547
1548 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1553
1554 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1555
1556 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1557 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).

1560
1561 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1562

1573 configuration files.
1574
1575 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1576
1577 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1579 * Released nmh-0.17.
1580
1581 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1582
1583 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1584 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1585
1586 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1587 defined.
1588
1589 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1590 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1591

1593 number of refiled message.
1594
1595 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.

1607
1608 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1609
1610 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1611 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1612 deal with binary messages, yet).
1613
1614 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1615
1616 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1617
1618 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1619 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1620 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1621 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1622 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1623 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1624
1625 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1626 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1627
1628 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1629 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1630
1631 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1632 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and

1634
1635 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1636
1637 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1638
1639 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1640 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1641 composition files.
1642
1643 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1644 files.
1645
1646 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1647
1648 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1649 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1650 which used unsigned chars by default.
1651
1652 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1653
1654 * Released nmh-0.15.
1655
1656 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1657 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
1658
1659 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1660
1661 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1662
1663 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1664 return 0.
1665
1666 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1667 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1668 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1669
1670 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1671 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1672
1673 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1674
1675 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1676 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1677
1678 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1679 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1680 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1681 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1682
1683 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1684 and put in own subroutine.
1685
1686 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1687 and put in own subroutine.
1688
1689 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1690 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1691 refile.c to use new routine.
1692

1694
1695 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1696
1697 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1698 seq_getnum.
1699
1700 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1701 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1702 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1703
1704 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1705 no longer used.
1706
1707 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1708 adding message to sequence.
1709
1710 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1711 corresponding file in sbr.
1712
1713 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1714 file in sbr.
1715
1716 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1717
1718 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1719 all selected messages from a sequence.
1720
1721 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1722 selected messages to a sequence.
1723
1724 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1725 and m_seqok.c.

1740 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
1741
1742 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1747 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1748
1749 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1750
1751 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1752 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1753 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1754 environment variable.
1755
1756 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1757 draft folder facility in nmh.
1758
1759 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
1760 to fmt_compile.h.
1761
1762 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
1763 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
1764 fmt_addr.c.
1765
1766 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1767 options.
1768
1769 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1770
1771 * Released nmh-0.13.
1772
1773 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1774 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1775 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1776 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1777 to MAXARGS).
1778
1779 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1780 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1781
1782 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1783
1784 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1785 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1786
1787 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1788
1789 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1790 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
1791
1792 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1793
1794 * Released nmh-0.12.

1799
1800 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1801
1802 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1803 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1804
1805 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1806 mp->attrstats with macros.
1807
1808 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1809 in msh.c instead.
1810
1811 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1812 to hide dd->dd_fd.
1813
1814 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1815 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1816
1817 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1818 will suppress the display of the message header.
1819
1820 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1821
1822 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1823 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1824
1825 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1826
1827 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1828
1829 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1830
1831 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1832 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1833
1834 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1835 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1836
1837 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1838
1839 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1840
1841 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1842 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1843
1844 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1845 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

1854 by default.
1855
1856 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1857
1858 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1859 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1860
1861 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1862 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1863
1864 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1865 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
1866
1867 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1870 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1871
1872 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1873
1874 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

1885 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
1886 <sys/ioctl.h>.
1887
1888 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
1889
1890 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1891
1892 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
1893 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
1894
1895 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1896
1897 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
1898
1899 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
1900 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
1901
1902 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1903
1904 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1905 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1906
1907 * Released nmh-0.08.
1908
1909 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1910 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1911 locking database itself.
1912
1913 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1914
1915 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1916
1917 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1918 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1919 option.
1920
1921 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1922 rather than mmdf format.
1923
1924 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1925 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1926 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1927 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1928
1929 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1930
1931 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1932
1933 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1934 added to packf.
1935
1936 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1937 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1938 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1939
1940 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1941 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1942 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1943
1944 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1945
1946 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1947 can still easily change this in config.h).
1948
1949 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1950 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1951 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1952
1953 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1954
1955 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1956 than tzset and external timezone variable.
1957

1959
1960 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

1966
1967 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1968
1969 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
1970 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1971
1972 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1973 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1974 on SCO 5.x.
1975
1976 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1977 built-in FTP client in mhn.
1978
1979 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
1980 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
1981
1982 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
1983
1984 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
1985
1986 * Added configure check for tzset.
1987
1988 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1989
1990 * Released nmh-0.06.
1991
1992 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1993 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1994
1995 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1996 many such machines around anymore.
1997
1998 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1999 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2000
2001 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2002 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2003
2004 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2005
2006 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2007 pre-generated version if necessary.
2008
2009 * Released nmh-0.05.
2010
2011 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2012 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2013 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2014 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2015
2016 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2017 be linked in one pass.
2018
2019 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2020
2021 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2022 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2023
2024 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2025
2026 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.

2028 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2029
2030 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2031 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2032 become the current folder.
2033
2034 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2035
2036 * Released nmh-0.04.

2038 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2039 it.
2040
2041 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2042
2043 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2044 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2045 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2046
2047 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2048
2049 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2050 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2051
2052 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2053
2054 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2055 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2056 using POP.
2057
2058 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2059 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2060
2061 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2062
2063 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2064 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2065 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2066 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2067 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2068 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2069
2070 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2071
2072 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2073 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2074
2075 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2076 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2077
2078 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2079
2080 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2081 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2082
2083 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2084
2085 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2086 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2087 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2088
2089 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2090
2091 * Released nmh-0.03.
2092
2093 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2094 .mh_sequence file existed.
2095
2096 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2097 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2098
2099 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2100 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2101 man page.
2102
2103 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2104
2105 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2106 flist man page.
2107
2108 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2109
2110 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2111 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2112 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2113
2114 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2115
2116 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2117 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2118 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2119
2120 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2121
2122 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2123 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2124
2125 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2126
2127 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2128
2129 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2130 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2131 directory from where the source code is located.
2132
2133 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2134
2135 * Released nmh-0.02.

2145 and sys_nerr directly.
2146
2147 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2148
2149 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2150

2152
2153 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2154
2155 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2156 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2157 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2158 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2159 rather than in script.
2160
2161 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2162
2163 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2164
2165 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2166 macro defined on Solaris.
2167
2168 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2169
2170 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2171 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2172
2173 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2174 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2175 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2176 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2177 options if enabled.
2178
2179 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2180
2181 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2182 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2183
2184 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2185 correctly found.
2186
2187 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2188
2189 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2190
2191 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2192 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2193
2194 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2195
2196 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2197 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2198
2199 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2200
2201 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2202 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2203 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2204 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2205 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2206 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2207
2208 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2209
2210 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2211
2212 * Released nmh-0.01.
2213
2214 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2215 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2216 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2217 have POSIX signals.
2218
2219 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2220
2221 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2222 their man pages.
2223
2224 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2225
2226 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2227 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2228
2229 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2230
2231 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2232 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2233 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2234 script to find_program.
2235
2236 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2237
2238 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2239 speed up -recurse option.
2240
2241 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2242 yet, but it compiles :-)
2243
2244 * Changed default location for install to
2245 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2246 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2247 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2248 level Makefile.
2249
2250 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2251 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2252 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
