3 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
4 be easily changed from "," to "#".
5 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
6 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
8 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
10 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
11 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
12 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
13 but not for the subsequent data stream.
15 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
17 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
18 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
19 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
20 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
21 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
23 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
25 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
26 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
28 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
29 cat, also define lorder as echo.
31 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
33 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
35 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
36 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
37 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
39 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
41 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
44 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
45 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
47 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
49 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
50 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
52 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
54 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
55 inc does not need to be setgid.
57 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
59 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
60 library, as found on Debian systems.
62 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
64 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
66 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
67 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
68 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
69 case-insensitivity flag.
71 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
73 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
74 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
76 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
78 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
79 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
80 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
81 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
82 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
83 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
84 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
85 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
88 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
89 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
91 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
93 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
94 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
95 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
96 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
97 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
98 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
99 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
100 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
101 the prototype, but never sets it.
103 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
104 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
105 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
106 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
107 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
108 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
110 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
111 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
112 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
113 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
114 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
116 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
118 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
119 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
122 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
123 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
124 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
125 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
126 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
127 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
128 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
130 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
132 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
134 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
135 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
136 this works on other systems.
138 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
140 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
141 checks for write failures.
143 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
145 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
147 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
150 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
152 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
154 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
156 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
157 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
160 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
162 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
163 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
164 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
165 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
167 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
169 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
170 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
173 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
174 as well as Makefiles.
176 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
178 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
179 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
180 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
181 should make maintainability easier.
183 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
184 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
185 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
186 whatever you know works.
188 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
190 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
191 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
192 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
194 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
195 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
196 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
197 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
199 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
200 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
201 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
203 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
204 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
205 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
206 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
207 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
209 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
210 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
211 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
212 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
213 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
214 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
215 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
216 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
217 from the BSD version.
219 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
220 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
221 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
223 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
226 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
229 This happens on solaris:
232 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
233 No manual entry for mts.conf.
237 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
239 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
240 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
242 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
244 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
245 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
246 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
247 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
248 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
249 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
250 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
251 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
252 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
253 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
254 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
256 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
257 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
258 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
259 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
260 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
261 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
264 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
265 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
266 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
267 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
268 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
270 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
271 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
273 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
275 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
276 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
277 to stdin, such as exmh.
279 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
280 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
281 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
284 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
286 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
287 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
288 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
289 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
290 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
291 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
292 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
294 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
296 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
297 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
299 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
301 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
302 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
304 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
306 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
309 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
310 along with any -host or -user option.
312 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
314 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
316 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
317 process was fresh in my mind.
319 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
321 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
322 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
324 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
326 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
328 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
331 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
332 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
333 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
334 part of the program's name.
336 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
337 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
340 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
342 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
343 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
344 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
345 single-character format would cause programs using this
346 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
347 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
348 when the format string was one character. This eventually
349 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
352 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
354 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
355 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
356 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
357 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
358 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
359 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
361 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
362 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
363 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
364 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
365 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
366 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
367 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
368 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
370 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
371 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
372 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
373 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
374 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
375 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
376 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
377 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
378 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
379 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
381 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
383 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
384 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
386 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
387 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
389 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
394 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
396 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
397 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
398 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
399 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
401 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
402 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
403 problem in the routine.
405 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
407 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
408 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
410 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
411 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
412 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
415 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
417 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
418 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
419 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
420 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
421 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
422 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
423 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
424 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
425 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
426 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
428 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
430 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
431 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
432 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
433 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
434 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
435 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
436 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
437 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
438 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
439 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
440 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
441 interesting than a duplication of the default.
443 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
444 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
445 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
446 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
447 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
449 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
452 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
454 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
455 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
456 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
457 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
460 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
462 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
464 * Applied, after some finessing,
465 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
467 Here's a patch that allows you to add
469 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
471 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
472 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
473 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
474 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
476 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
478 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
479 forgetting to do so!).
481 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
482 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
483 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
484 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
485 arguments to enable all three types.
487 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
488 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
490 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
491 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
492 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
493 updated copy of mts.conf.
495 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
497 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
498 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
499 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
501 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
503 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
505 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
506 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
507 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
509 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
510 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
511 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
513 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
514 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
515 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
517 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
519 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
521 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
523 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
525 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
526 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
528 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
529 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
530 certain suffix to run properly.
532 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
533 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
534 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
536 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
537 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
538 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
539 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
540 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
541 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
542 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
544 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
546 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
547 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
548 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
549 until some year far in the future).
551 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
553 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
555 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
556 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
558 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
559 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
562 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
564 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
565 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
566 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
567 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
568 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
569 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
571 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
573 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
575 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
576 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
577 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
579 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
580 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
581 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
582 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
583 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
584 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
587 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
588 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
589 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
590 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
591 of masquerading individually.
593 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
594 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
595 GECOS field delimiters.
597 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
599 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
600 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
601 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
602 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
603 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
604 and explaining the feature.
606 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
608 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
609 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
612 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
613 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
614 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
616 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
617 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
618 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
619 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
621 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
622 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
623 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
626 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
628 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
631 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
633 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
635 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
636 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
637 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
638 quotes embedded in them.
640 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
642 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
643 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
644 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
645 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
646 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
647 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
648 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
651 The other theory is that because you can say something like
652 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
653 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
654 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
655 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
657 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
659 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
661 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
662 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
663 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
664 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
666 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
669 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
671 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
673 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
675 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
676 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
677 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
679 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
682 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
684 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
685 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
686 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
687 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
688 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
689 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
691 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
692 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
694 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
696 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
699 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
701 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
702 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
703 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
706 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
707 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
708 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
709 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
710 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
711 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
712 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
713 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
714 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
715 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
716 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
717 processing that post has).
719 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
721 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
722 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
723 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
724 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
725 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
726 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
729 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
731 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
733 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
735 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
737 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
738 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
740 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
743 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
745 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
746 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
747 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
750 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
752 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
753 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
754 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
755 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
756 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
757 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
759 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
761 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
763 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
765 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
766 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
767 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
768 caught again. This works for now.
770 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
772 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
774 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
775 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
777 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
779 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
780 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
782 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
784 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
786 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
788 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
789 changes. Both need more cleanup.
791 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
793 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
794 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
795 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
796 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
797 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
800 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
802 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
803 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
804 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
806 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
807 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
810 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
812 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
813 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
814 to a directory on another device with more free space.
816 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
818 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
819 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
821 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
823 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
826 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
827 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
829 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
830 macros, regardless of platform.
832 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
833 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
835 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
836 with x-conversions=gzip.
838 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
840 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
843 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
844 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
845 implicit definition of ioctl().
847 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
848 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
849 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
850 want to mess with them.
852 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
854 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
855 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
857 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
858 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
860 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
861 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
862 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
864 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
865 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
866 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
868 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
871 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
874 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
875 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
878 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
879 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
882 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
883 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
887 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
889 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
890 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
891 preventing compilation on at least linux.
893 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
894 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
896 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
898 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
900 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
901 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
902 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
903 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
905 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
906 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
908 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
910 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
912 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
914 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
915 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
917 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
919 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
920 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
922 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
923 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
924 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
925 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
927 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
928 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
930 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
932 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
933 substitute it for mktemp if available.
935 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
937 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
938 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
941 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
943 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
945 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
947 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
948 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
950 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
951 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
952 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
954 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
955 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
956 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
958 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
959 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
960 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
962 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
963 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
966 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
967 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
969 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
970 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
972 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
975 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
976 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
977 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
979 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
980 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
982 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
983 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
984 <elleron@servtech.com>.
986 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
987 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
990 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
991 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
993 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
994 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
995 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
996 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
998 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
999 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1001 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1005 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1006 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1007 would not be changed.
1009 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1010 one from the Apache web server.
1012 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1013 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1015 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1016 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1017 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1019 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1021 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1023 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1024 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1027 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1028 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1029 removes a bad race condition.
1031 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1034 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1035 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1036 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1038 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1039 sequence information.
1041 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1042 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1044 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1047 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1050 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1052 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1053 interpret 034 as octal.
1055 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1057 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1058 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1060 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1061 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1063 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1064 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1066 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1067 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1069 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1070 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1072 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1073 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1074 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1076 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1077 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1078 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1080 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1082 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1084 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1085 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1088 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1090 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1091 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1093 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1094 header field information.
1096 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1097 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1099 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1100 values when parsing a content.
1102 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1103 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1105 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1106 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1108 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1109 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1111 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1112 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1114 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1116 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1118 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1120 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1122 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1123 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1126 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1127 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1129 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1130 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1131 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1132 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1133 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1134 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1137 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1139 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1140 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1141 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1143 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1144 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1146 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1148 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1149 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1150 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1151 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1153 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1154 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1157 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1158 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1159 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1160 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1163 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1165 * Released nmh-0.27.
1167 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1168 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1170 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1171 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1172 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1173 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1176 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1177 mhbuild returns an error.
1179 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1180 rename the draft file.
1182 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1183 use a global variable.
1185 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1186 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1188 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1189 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1191 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1192 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1193 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1195 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1196 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1198 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1199 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1202 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1203 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1206 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1207 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1209 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1210 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1211 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1213 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1214 to new function output_content_folder.
1216 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1217 new function output_content_file.
1219 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1220 to new function parse_format_string.
1222 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1223 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1224 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1225 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1227 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1228 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1229 message/external file from ftp.
1231 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1232 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1233 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1235 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1236 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1239 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1242 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1243 new file mhstoresbr.c
1245 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1248 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1249 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1251 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1252 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1254 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1255 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1256 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1258 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1260 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1262 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1263 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1266 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1267 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1269 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1272 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1274 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1276 * Released nmh-0.26.
1278 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1279 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1280 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1281 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1283 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1284 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1285 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1286 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1287 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1289 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1290 But it is not on by default.
1292 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1293 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1295 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1297 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1299 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1301 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1303 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1304 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1306 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1308 * Released nmh-0.25.
1310 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1311 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1312 uses the original name of the library.
1314 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1315 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1318 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1319 list_content and list_debug.
1321 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1323 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1324 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1326 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1328 * Released nmh-0.24.
1330 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1332 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1333 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1335 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1336 large sequence line.
1338 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1340 * Released nmh-0.23.
1342 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1344 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1345 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1346 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1347 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1349 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1350 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1353 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1355 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1357 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1359 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1360 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1362 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1363 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1365 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1366 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1368 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1369 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1371 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1373 * Released nmh-0.22.
1375 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1376 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1378 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1380 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1381 mh-profile(5) man page.
1383 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1384 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1386 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1388 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1390 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1391 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1393 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1395 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1396 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1397 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1399 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1400 source message on the standard input.
1402 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1404 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1405 rather than -rfc934mode.
1407 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1408 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1411 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1412 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1414 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1417 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1419 * Released nmh-0.21.
1421 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1422 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1424 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1427 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1428 to use for text contents.
1430 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1432 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1434 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1436 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1438 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1439 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1441 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1442 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1443 spaces between encoded word are.
1445 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1447 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1448 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1450 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1451 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1452 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1454 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1456 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1457 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1459 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1461 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1463 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1464 ISO-8859-X character set.
1466 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1469 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1470 permissions, not write permissions.
1472 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1473 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1475 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1478 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1480 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1482 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1483 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1485 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1486 message contains valid character set.
1488 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1489 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1491 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1492 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1494 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1495 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1496 between an encoded word and normal text.
1498 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1499 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1501 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1502 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1504 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1507 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1508 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1511 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1512 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1514 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1515 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1517 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1519 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1521 * Released nmh-0.20.
1523 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1525 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1527 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1528 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1529 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1531 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1532 and the To: line was missing.
1534 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1536 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1538 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1540 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1541 watch the POP transaction.
1543 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1544 first, and use it if available.
1546 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1547 first, and use it if available.
1549 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1551 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1553 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1554 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1555 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1558 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1559 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1560 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1562 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1563 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1566 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1568 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1569 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1571 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1573 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1574 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1576 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1577 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1578 message to which you are replying.
1580 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1581 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1582 making group replies.
1584 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1586 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1588 * Released nmh-0.19.
1590 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1591 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1593 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1594 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1595 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1596 to the end of the man page.
1598 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1599 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1600 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1601 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1602 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1603 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1605 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1608 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1609 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1610 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1612 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1613 the next available number above the message number you wish
1616 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1617 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1619 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1620 file sbr/seq_print.c
1622 * flist will now update the current folder.
1624 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1625 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1626 but now undocumented.
1628 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1631 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1632 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1634 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1636 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1637 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1639 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1641 * Released nmh-0.18.
1643 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1644 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1645 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1647 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1648 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1650 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1651 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1652 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1653 previous public/private status.
1655 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1658 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1661 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1662 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1663 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1665 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1666 take option to determine whether it should get current
1667 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1668 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1670 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1672 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1673 wait for stopped processes.
1675 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1676 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1678 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1680 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1682 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1683 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1685 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1686 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1688 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1689 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1690 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1691 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1693 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1696 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1699 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1701 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1702 the debugging output.
1704 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1705 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1707 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1709 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1711 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1712 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1714 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1716 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1717 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1718 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1719 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1720 in the given sequence.
1722 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1723 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1724 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1725 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1726 subdirectories of a given directory.
1728 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1729 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1730 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1732 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1733 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1735 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1737 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1740 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1741 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1742 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1744 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1745 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1746 are calculated at runtime.

1758 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1759 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1760 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1762 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1763 adding message to folder itself.
1765 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1766 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1767 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1770 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1771 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1774 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1775 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1776 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1778 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1779 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1781 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1782 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1783 code to use it yet).

1833 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1835 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1836 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".

1841 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1842 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1844 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1845 number of refiled message.
1847 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1849 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1850 for return value of wait().

1860 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1862 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1863 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1864 deal with binary messages, yet).
1866 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1868 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1870 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1871 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1872 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1873 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1874 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1875 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1877 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1878 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1880 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1881 From MH-6.8.4 patch.

1892 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1895 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1898 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1900 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to

1913 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1915 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1918 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1919 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1920 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1922 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1923 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1925 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1927 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1928 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1930 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1931 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1932 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1933 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1935 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1936 and put in own subroutine.
1938 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1939 and put in own subroutine.

1942 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1943 refile.c to use new routine.
1945 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1947 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1949 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1952 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1953 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1954 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1956 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1959 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before

1971 all selected messages from a sequence.
1973 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1974 selected messages to a sequence.
1976 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1979 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1981 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1982 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1984 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1986 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2023 * Released nmh-0.13.
2025 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2026 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2027 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2028 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2031 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2032 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2034 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2036 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2037 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2039 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2041 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2066 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2067 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2069 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2070 will suppress the display of the message header.
2072 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2074 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2075 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2077 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2079 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2081 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2083 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2084 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2086 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2087 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2089 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2091 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2093 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2094 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2096 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2097 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2099 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2101 * Released nmh-0.10.

2111 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2113 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2114 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2116 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2117 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2119 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2121 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2122 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2124 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2126 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2127 of missing tabs in regex.

2147 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2149 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2151 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2152 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2154 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2156 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2157 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2159 * Released nmh-0.08.
2161 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2162 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2163 locking database itself.

2167 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2169 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2170 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2173 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2174 rather than mmdf format.
2176 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2177 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2178 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2179 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2181 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2183 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2185 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2188 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2189 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2190 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2192 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2193 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

2196 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2198 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2199 can still easily change this in config.h).
2201 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2202 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2203 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2205 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2207 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2219 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2221 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2222 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2224 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2225 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2228 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2229 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2231 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2232 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2234 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2236 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2238 * Added configure check for tzset.

2242 * Released nmh-0.06.
2244 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2245 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2247 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2248 many such machines around anymore.
2250 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2251 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2253 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2254 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2256 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2258 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2259 pre-generated version if necessary.
2261 * Released nmh-0.05.
2263 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2264 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2265 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2266 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2268 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2269 be linked in one pass.
2271 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2273 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2274 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2276 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2278 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2280 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2282 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2283 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2284 become the current folder.
2286 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2288 * Released nmh-0.04.
2290 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2293 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2295 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2296 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2297 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2299 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2301 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2302 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2304 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2306 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2307 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2310 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2311 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2313 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2315 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2316 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2317 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2318 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2319 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2320 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2322 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2324 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2325 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2327 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2328 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2330 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2332 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2333 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2335 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2337 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2338 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2339 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2341 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2343 * Released nmh-0.03.
2345 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2346 .mh_sequence file existed.
2348 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2349 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2351 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2352 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated

2360 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2362 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2363 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2364 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2366 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2368 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2369 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2370 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2372 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2374 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2375 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2377 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2379 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2381 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2382 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2383 directory from where the source code is located.
2385 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2387 * Released nmh-0.02.
2389 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2394 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2396 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2397 and sys_nerr directly.
2399 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2401 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2403 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2405 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2407 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2408 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2409 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2410 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2411 rather than in script.
2413 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2415 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2417 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2418 macro defined on Solaris.
2420 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2422 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2423 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2425 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2426 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2427 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2428 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2431 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2433 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2434 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2436 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2439 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2441 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2443 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2444 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2446 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2448 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2449 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2451 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2453 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2454 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2455 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2456 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2457 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2458 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2460 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2462 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2464 * Released nmh-0.01.
2466 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2467 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2468 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2471 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2473 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2476 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2478 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2479 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2481 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2483 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2484 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2485 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2486 script to find_program.
2488 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2490 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2491 speed up -recurse option.
2493 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2494 yet, but it compiles :-)
2496 * Changed default location for install to
2497 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2498 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2499 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2502 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2503 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2504 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
