fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if the num function was used at
[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
2
3 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
4 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
5
6 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
7
8 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
9 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
10 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
11 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
12 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
13 the signature.
14
15 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
16
17 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
18 widths, restoring right justification feature
19
20 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
21
22 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
23 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
24 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
25
26 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
27 chars fit
28
29 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
30
31 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
32 handling multi column characters.
33
34 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
35
36 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
37
38 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
39
40 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
41 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
42 has been removed.
43
44 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
45
46 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
47
48 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
49
50 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
51 calling realloc.
52
53 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
54
55 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
56 calling malloc.
57
58 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
59
60 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
61 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
62 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
63 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
64
65 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
66
67 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
68 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
69 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
70 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
71 where configure's autodetection fails.
72
73 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
74
75 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
76 configure script change.
77
78 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
79
80 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
81 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
82 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
83 systems with libdb4.
84
85 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
86
87 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
88 the context is only read once.
89
90 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
91
92 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
93 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
94
95 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
96
97 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
98 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
99
100 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
101 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
102 the first one.
103
104 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
105 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
106 annotated messages.
107
108 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
109
110 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
111 vi isn't found during build.
112
113 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
114
115 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
116 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
117
118 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
119 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
120 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
121
122 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
123
124 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
125 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
126
127 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
128 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
129 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
130 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
131 very slow).
132
133 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
134 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
135 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
136
137 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
138 entry in the context file.
139
140 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
141
142 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
143 problems on some systems
144
145 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
146 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
147
148 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
149
150 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
151 sendmail isn't found during build.
152
153 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
154
155 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
156
157 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
158
159 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
160 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
161
162 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
163 references to the web page and mailing list locations
164
165 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
166 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
167
168 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
169 autoconf macros
170
171 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
172
173 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
174 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
175 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
176
177 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
178 was configured with --enable-apop.
179
180 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
181 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
182 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
183
184 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
185 new versions of flex.
186
187 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
188 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
189 doesn't guess wrongly.
190
191 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
192
193 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
194 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
195
196 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
197 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
198
199 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
200 files with numbers as names
201
202 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
203
204 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
205
206 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
207
208 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
209
210 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
211 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
212
213 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
214
215 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
216 vfork on Linux
217
218 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
219 test/report error writing to stdout
220
221 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
222
223 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
224
225 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
226 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
227 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
228
229 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
230 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
231 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
232
233 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
234
235 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
236 character set used by the current locale
237
238 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
239 message's filename overflows an int when converted
240
241 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
242 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
243
244 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
245
246 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
247 the terminal
248
249 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
250
251 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
252 from Michael Richardson.
253
254 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
255 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
256
257 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
258
259 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
260 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
261
262 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
263
264 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
265 find sub-parts of the specified part
266
267 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
268
269 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
270 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
271 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
272 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
273 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
274 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
275 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
276 that path.
277
278 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
279
280 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
281 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
282 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
283 renamed.
284
285 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
286 refiling with -src option.
287
288 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
289
290 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
291
292 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
293
294 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
295 mailpath being overwritten.
296
297 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
298
299 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
300 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
301 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
302 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
303 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
304 reinitializes the tmp file string.
305
306 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
307 if a format string was read from the profile.
308
309 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
310 path for the external hook.
311
312 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
313
314 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
315 another location for ndbm.
316
317 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
318
319 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
320 independent.
321 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
322 to empty folder.
323 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
324
325 Debian Bug#
326 136976 - Handle binary content messages
327 143427 - mh-format.man typo
328 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
329 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
330 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
331 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
332 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
333 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
334 181867 - typo for nmh.man
335
336 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
337
338 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
339 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
340 contitional code which will result in cached data to
341 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
342 and parse on the first use.
343 * Remove some unused flag bits.
344
345 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
346
347 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
348 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
349 * Fixes for bugs
350 #578 - repl leaks umask
351 #1393 - sortm core dumps
352 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
353 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
354 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
355 RFC2822 compliant
356 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
357 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
358
359 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
360
361 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
362 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
363
364 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
365
366 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
367 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
368 to docs/README.about.
369
370 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
371
372 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
373
374 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
375 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
376 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
377 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
378 enough).
379
380 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
381
382 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
383 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
384 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
385 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
386 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
387 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
388 as well.
389
390 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
391 summary configure prints out.
392
393 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
394 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
395 subjectively more readable) format.
396
397 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
398
399 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
400 all nmh commands.
401
402 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
403
404 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
405 19xx when it's not necessary.
406
407 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
408
409 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
410 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
411 roff mark-up.
412
413 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
414 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
415 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
416 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
417 the man pages correctly.
418
419 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
420
421 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
422
423 * Finished manpages ali-prev
424
425 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
426 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
427 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
428 structure.
429
430 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
431 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
432 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
433 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
434
435 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
436
437 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
438 the formatting rules I've been using.
439
440 * Finished ali-inc.
441
442 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
443
444 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
445 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
446 used in the manpages.
447
448 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
449 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
450 read in the contents of the file as the variable
451 $DATE.
452
453 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
454 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
455 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
456 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
457 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
458 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
459 bold flags and italicized parameters.
460
461 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
462
463 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
464 --with-locking option.
465
466 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
467 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
468 information was not being communicated to the
469 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
470 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
471 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
472 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
473 undefined symbols problems.
474
475 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
476 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
477 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
478 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
479 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
480 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
481 for a genuine krb4 installation.
482
483 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
484
485 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
486 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.

488 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
489
490 * Made a new ./configure option called
491 "--with-locking" that allows the file
492 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
493 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
494
495 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
496 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
497 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
498 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
499 the user that these are the valid options, and
500 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
501 descriptive enough.
502
503 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
504
505 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
506 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
507 committed to supporting flex only, since
508 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
509 string, as well as other problems documented
510 below and on nmh-workers.
511
512 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
513 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
514 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
515 the flag.
516
517 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
518 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
519
520 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
521
522 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
523 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
524 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
525
526 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
527
528 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
529 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
530
531 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
532
533 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
534 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
535 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
536 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
537 couldn't correctly identify them.
538
539 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
540
541 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
542 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
543 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
544 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
545 not depending on an external archive.
546
547 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
548 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
549 mts/generic is no longer built.
550
551 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
552
553 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
554 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
555 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
556 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
557 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
558 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
559 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
560 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
561
562 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
563
564 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
565 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
566 correct.
567
568 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
569
570 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
571 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
572 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
573 now finally mts.
574
575 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
576 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
577 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
578 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
579
580 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
581 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
582 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
583 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
584 merged into the smtp code).
585
586 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
587 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
588 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
589 of it for us.
590
591 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
592 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
593 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
594 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
595 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
596 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
597 in the appropriate Makefile.in
598
599 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
600
601 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
602 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
603 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
604 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
605 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
606 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
607 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
608 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
609 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
610 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
611 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
612
613 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
614
615 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
616 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
617 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
618 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
619 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
620 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
621 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
622 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
623 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
624
625 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
626
627 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
628 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
629 able to access them.
630
631 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
632
633 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
634 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
635
636 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
637
638 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
639 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
640 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
641 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
642
643 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
644
645 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
646 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
647 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
648 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
649 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
650
651 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
652 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
653
654 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
655
656 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
657
658 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
659 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
660 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
661 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
662
663 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
664 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
665 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
666 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
667
668 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
669 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
670 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
671 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
672
673 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
674 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
675 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
676
677 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
678
679 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
680 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
681 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
682 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
683 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
684 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
685 my users.
686
687 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
688 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
689
690 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
691 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
692
693 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
694
695 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
696
697 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
698
699 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
700 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
701 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
702 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
703
704 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
705
706 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
707 be easily changed from "," to "#".
708
709 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
710
711 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
712
713 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
714 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
715 README.developers.
716
717 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
718
719 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
720 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
721 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
722 but not for the subsequent data stream.
723
724 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
725
726 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
727 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
728 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
729 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
730 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
731
732 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
733
734 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
735 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
736
737 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
738 cat, also define lorder as echo.
739
740 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
741
742 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
743
744 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
745 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
746 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
747
748 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
749
750 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
751 #if 0 block).
752
753 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
754 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
755
756 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
757
758 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
759 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
760
761 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
762
763 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
764 inc does not need to be setgid.
765
766 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
767
768 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
769 library, as found on Debian systems.
770
771 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
772
773 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
774
775 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
776 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
777 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
778 case-insensitivity flag.
779
780 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
781
782 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
783 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
784
785 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
786
787 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
788 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
789 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
790 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
791 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
792 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
793 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
794 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
795 getting moved aside).
796
797 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
798 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
799
800 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
801
802 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
803 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
804 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
805 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
806 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
807 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
808 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
809 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
810 the prototype, but never sets it.
811
812 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
813 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
814 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
815 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
816 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
817 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
818
819 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
820 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
821 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
822 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
823 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
824
825 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
826
827 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
828 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
829 of tws.h.
830
831 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
832 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
833 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
834 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
835 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
836 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
837 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
838
839 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
840
841 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
842
843 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
844 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
845 this works on other systems.
846
847 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
848
849 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
850 checks for write failures.
851
852 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
853
854 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
855
856 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
857 is patched in.
858
859 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
860
861 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
862
863 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
864
865 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
866 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
867 a buffer boundary.
868
869 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
870
871 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
872 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
873 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
874 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
875
876 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
877
878 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
879 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
880 place.
881
882 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
883 as well as Makefiles.
884
885 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
886
887 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
888 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
889 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
890 should make maintainability easier.
891
892 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
893 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
894 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
895 whatever you know works.
896
897 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
898
899 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
900 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
901 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
902
903 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
904 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
905 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
906 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
907
908 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
909 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
910 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
911
912 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
913 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
914 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
915 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
916 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
917
918 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
919 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
920 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
921 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
922 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
923 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
924 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
925 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
926 from the BSD version.
927
928 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
929 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
930 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
931
932 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
933 in ruserpass.c also.
934
935 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
936 report:
937
938 This happens on solaris:
939
940 % man mts.conf
941 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
942 No manual entry for mts.conf.
943
944 It is fixed by
945
946 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
947
948 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
949 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
950
951 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
952
953 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
954 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
955 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
956 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
957 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
958 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
959 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
960 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
961 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
962 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
963 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
964
965 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
966 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
967 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
968 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
969 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
970 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
971 out of nowhere.
972
973 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
974 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
975 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
976 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
977 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
978
979 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
980 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
981
982 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
983
984 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
985 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
986 to stdin, such as exmh.
987
988 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
989 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
990 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
991 other files.
992
993 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
994
995 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
996 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
997 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
998 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
999 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1000 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1001 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1002
1003 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1004
1005 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1006 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1007
1008 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1009
1010 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1011 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1012
1013 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1014
1015 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1016 --enable-apop.
1017
1018 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1019 along with any -host or -user option.
1020
1021 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1022
1023 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1024
1025 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1026 process was fresh in my mind.
1027
1028 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1029
1030 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1031 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1032
1033 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1034
1035 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1036
1037 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1038 patch:
1039
1040 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1041 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1042 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1043 part of the program's name.
1044
1045 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1046 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1047 to quote.
1048
1049 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1050
1051 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1052 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1053 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1054 single-character format would cause programs using this
1055 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1056 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1057 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1058 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1059 in the array.
1060
1061 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1062
1063 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1064 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1065 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1066 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1067 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1068 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1069
1070 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1071 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1072 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1073 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1074 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1075 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1076 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1077 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1078
1079 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1080 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1081 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1082 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1083 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1084 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1085 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1086 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1087 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1088 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1089
1090 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1091
1092 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1093 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1094
1095 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1096 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1097
1098 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1099 exit 2
1100
1101 and:
1102
1103 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1104
1105 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1106 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1107 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1108 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1109
1110 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1111 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1112 problem in the routine.
1113
1114 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1115
1116 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1117 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1118
1119 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1120 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1121 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1122 spool somehow.
1123
1124 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1125
1126 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1127 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1128 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1129 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1130 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1131 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1132 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1133 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1134 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1135 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1136
1137 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1138
1139 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1140 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1141 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1142 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1143 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1144 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1145 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1146 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1147 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1148 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1149 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1150 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1151
1152 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1153 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1154 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1155 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1156 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1157
1158 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1159 POP is enabled.
1160
1161 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1162
1163 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1164 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1165 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1166 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1167 here.
1168
1169 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1170
1171 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1172
1173 * Applied, after some finessing,
1174 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1175
1176 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1177
1178 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1179
1180 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1181 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1182 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1183 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1184
1185 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1186
1187 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1188 forgetting to do so!).
1189
1190 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1191 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1192 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1193 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1194 arguments to enable all three types.
1195
1196 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1197 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1198
1199 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1200 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1201 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1202 updated copy of mts.conf.
1203
1204 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1205
1206 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1207 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1208 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1209
1210 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1211 and
1212 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1213
1214 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1215 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1216 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1217
1218 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1219 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1220 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1221
1222 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1223 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1224 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1225
1226 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1227
1228 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1229
1230 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1231
1232 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1233
1234 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1235 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1236
1237 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1238 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1239 certain suffix to run properly.
1240
1241 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1242 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1243 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1244
1245 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1246 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1247 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1248 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1249 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1250 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1251 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1252
1253 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1254
1255 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1256 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1257 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1258 until some year far in the future).
1259
1260 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1261
1262 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1263
1264 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1265 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1266
1267 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1268 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1269 corrupted.
1270
1271 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1272
1273 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1274 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1275 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1276 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1277 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1278 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1279
1280 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1281
1282 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1283
1284 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1285 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1286 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1287
1288 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1289 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1290 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1291 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1292 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1293 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1294 leads me to:
1295
1296 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1297 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1298 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1299 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1300 of masquerading individually.
1301
1302 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1303 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1304 GECOS field delimiters.
1305
1306 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1307
1308 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1309 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1310 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1311 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1312 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1313 and explaining the feature.
1314
1315 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1316
1317 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1318 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1319 so).
1320
1321 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1322 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1323 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1324
1325 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1326 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1327 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1328 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1329
1330 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1331 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1332 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1333 anywhere.
1334
1335 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1336
1337 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1338 code to be executed.
1339
1340 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1341
1342 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1343
1344 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1345 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1346 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1347 quotes embedded in them.
1348
1349 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1350
1351 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1352 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1353 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1354 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1355 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1356 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1357 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1358 allowed to specify.
1359
1360 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1361 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1362 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1363 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1364 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1365
1366 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1367
1368 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1369
1370 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1371 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1372 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1373 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1374
1375 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1376 KPOP server.
1377
1378 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1379
1380 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1381
1382 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1383
1384 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1385 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1386 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1387
1388 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1389 mhn.defaults.sh.
1390
1391 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1392
1393 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1394 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1395 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1396 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1397 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1398 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1399
1400 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1401 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1402
1403 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1404
1405 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1406 page.
1407
1408 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1409
1410 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1411 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1412 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1413 to be setgid.
1414
1415 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1416 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1417 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1418 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1419 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1420 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1421 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1422 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1423 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1424 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1425 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1426 processing that post has).
1427
1428 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1429
1430 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1431 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1432 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1433 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1434 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1435 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1436 Solaris 2.6).
1437
1438 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1439
1440 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1441
1442 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1443
1444 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1445
1446 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1447 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1448
1449 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1450 command-line.
1451
1452 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1453
1454 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1455 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1456 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1457 some development.
1458
1459 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1460
1461 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1462 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1463 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1464 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1465 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1466 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1467
1468 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1469
1470 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1471
1472 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1473
1474 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1475 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1476 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1477 caught again. This works for now.
1478
1479 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1480
1481 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1482
1483 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1484 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1485
1486 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1487
1488 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1489 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1490
1491 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1492
1493 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1494
1495 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1496
1497 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1498 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1499
1500 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1501
1502 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1503 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1504 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1505 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1506 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1507 multiple purposes.
1508
1509 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1510
1511 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1512 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1513 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1514
1515 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1516 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1517 config.guess.
1518
1519 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1520
1521 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1522 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1523 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1524
1525 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1526
1527 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1528 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1529
1530 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1531
1532 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1533 distributed.
1534
1535 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1536 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1537
1538 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1539 macros, regardless of platform.
1540
1541 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1542 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1543
1544 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1545 with x-conversions=gzip.
1546
1547 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1548
1549 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1550 post.c.
1551
1552 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1553 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1554 implicit definition of ioctl().
1555
1556 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1557 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1558 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1559 want to mess with them.
1560
1561 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1562
1563 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1564 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1565
1566 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1567 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1568
1569 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1570 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1571 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1572
1573 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1574 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1575 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1576
1577 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1578 function initgroups.
1579
1580 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1581 function.
1582
1583 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1584 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1585 to fix warnings.
1586
1587 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1588 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1589 prevent warnings.
1590
1591 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1592 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1593 statements).
1594
1595
1596 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1597
1598 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1599 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1600 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1601
1602 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1603 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1604
1605 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1606
1607 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1608
1609 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1610 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1611 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1612 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1613
1614 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1615 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1616
1617 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1618
1619 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1620
1621 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1622
1623 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1624 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1625
1626 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1627
1628 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1629 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1630
1631 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1632 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1633 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1634 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1635
1636 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1637 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1638
1639 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1640
1641 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1642 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1643
1644 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1645
1646 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1647 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1648 proper #defines.
1649
1650 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1651
1652 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1653
1654 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1655
1656 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1657 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1658
1659 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1660 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1661 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1662
1663 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1664 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1665 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1666
1667 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1668 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1669 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1670
1671 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1672 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1673 <swb@nconnect.net>.
1674
1675 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1676 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1677
1678 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1679 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1680
1681 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1682 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1683
1684 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1685 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1686 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1687
1688 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1689 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1690
1691 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1692 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1693 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1694
1695 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1696 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1697 <rmg@netapp.com>.
1698
1699 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1700 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1701
1702 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1703 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1704 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1705 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1706
1707 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1708 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1709
1710 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1711
1712 * Released nmh-1.0.
1713
1714 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1715 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1716 would not be changed.
1717
1718 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1719 one from the Apache web server.
1720
1721 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1722 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1723
1724 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1725 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1726 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1727
1728 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1729
1730 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1731
1732 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1733 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1734 verbose printing).
1735
1736 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1737 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1738 removes a bad race condition.
1739
1740 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1741 style drop file.
1742
1743 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1744 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1745 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1746
1747 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1748 sequence information.
1749
1750 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1751 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1752
1753 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1754 count.
1755
1756 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1757 is empty.
1758
1759 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1760
1761 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1762 interpret 034 as octal.
1763
1764 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1765
1766 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1767 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1768
1769 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1770 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1771
1772 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1773 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1774
1775 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1776 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1777
1778 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1779 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1780
1781 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1782 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1783 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1784
1785 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1786 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1787 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1788
1789 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1790
1791 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1792
1793 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1794 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1795 file "mhoutsbr.c".
1796
1797 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1798
1799 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1800 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1801
1802 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1803 header field information.
1804
1805 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1806 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1807
1808 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1809 values when parsing a content.
1810
1811 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1812 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1813
1814 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1815 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1816
1817 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1818 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1819
1820 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1821 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1822
1823 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1824
1825 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1826
1827 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1828
1829 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1830
1831 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1832 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1833 read.
1834
1835 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1836 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1837
1838 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1839 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1840 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1841 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1842 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1843 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1844 be setuid/setgid.
1845
1846 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1847
1848 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1849 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1850 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1851
1852 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1853 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1854
1855 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1856
1857 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1858 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1859 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1860 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1861
1862 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1863 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1864 fix).
1865
1866 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1867 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1868 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1869 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1870 arguments.
1871
1872 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1873
1874 * Released nmh-0.27.
1875
1876 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1877 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1878
1879 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1880 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1881 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1882 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1883 with no arguments.
1884
1885 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1886 mhbuild returns an error.
1887
1888 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1889 rename the draft file.
1890
1891 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1892 use a global variable.
1893
1894 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1895 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1896
1897 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1898 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1899
1900 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1901 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1902 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1903
1904 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1905 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1906
1907 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1908 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1909 this new page.
1910
1911 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1912 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1913 viamail program.
1914
1915 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1916 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1917
1918 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1919 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1920 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1921
1922 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1923 to new function output_content_folder.
1924
1925 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1926 new function output_content_file.
1927
1928 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1929 to new function parse_format_string.
1930
1931 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1932 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1933 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1934 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1935
1936 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1937 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1938 message/external file from ftp.
1939
1940 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1941 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1942 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1943
1944 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1945 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1946 mhfree.c.
1947
1948 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1949 file mhshowsbr.c.
1950
1951 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1952 new file mhstoresbr.c
1953
1954 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1955 file mhparse.c.
1956
1957 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1958 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1959
1960 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1961 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1962
1963 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1964 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1965 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1966
1967 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1968
1969 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1970
1971 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1972 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1973 to main().
1974
1975 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1976 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1977
1978 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1979 to mhparse.c).
1980
1981 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1982
1983 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1984
1985 * Released nmh-0.26.
1986
1987 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1988 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1989 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1990 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1991
1992 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1993 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1994 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1995 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1996 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1997
1998 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1999 But it is not on by default.
2000
2001 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2002 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2003
2004 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2005
2006 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2007
2008 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2009
2010 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2011
2012 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2013 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2014
2015 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2016
2017 * Released nmh-0.25.
2018
2019 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2020 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2021 uses the original name of the library.
2022
2023 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2024 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2025 links remaining.
2026
2027 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2028 list_content and list_debug.
2029
2030 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2031
2032 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2033 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2034
2035 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2036
2037 * Released nmh-0.24.
2038
2039 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2040
2041 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2042 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2043
2044 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2045 large sequence line.
2046
2047 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2048
2049 * Released nmh-0.23.
2050
2051 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2052
2053 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2054 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2055 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2056 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2057
2058 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2059 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2060 file h/mhnsbr.h.
2061
2062 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2063
2064 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2065
2066 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2067
2068 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2069 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2070
2071 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2072 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2073
2074 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2075 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2076
2077 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2078 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2079
2080 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2081
2082 * Released nmh-0.22.
2083
2084 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2085 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2086
2087 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2088
2089 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2090 mh-profile(5) man page.
2091
2092 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2093 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2094
2095 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2096
2097 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2098
2099 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2100 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2101
2102 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2103
2104 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2105 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2106 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2107
2108 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2109 source message on the standard input.
2110
2111 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2112
2113 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2114 rather than -rfc934mode.
2115
2116 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2117 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2118 only one message.
2119
2120 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2121 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2122
2123 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2124 it is still needed.
2125
2126 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2127
2128 * Released nmh-0.21.
2129
2130 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2131 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2132
2133 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2134 encoding to use.
2135
2136 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2137 to use for text contents.
2138
2139 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2140
2141 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2142
2143 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2144
2145 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2146
2147 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2148 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2149
2150 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2151 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2152 spaces between encoded word are.
2153
2154 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2155
2156 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2157 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2158
2159 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2160 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2161 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2162
2163 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2164
2165 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2166 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2167
2168 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2169
2170 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2171
2172 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2173 ISO-8859-X character set.
2174
2175 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2176 pager more.
2177
2178 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2179 permissions, not write permissions.
2180
2181 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2182 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2183
2184 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2185 distribution.
2186
2187 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2188
2189 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2190
2191 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2192 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2193
2194 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2195 message contains valid character set.
2196
2197 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2198 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2199
2200 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2201 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2202
2203 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2204 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2205 between an encoded word and normal text.
2206
2207 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2208 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2209
2210 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2211 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2212
2213 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2214 and -help.
2215
2216 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2217 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2218 loops).
2219
2220 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2221 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2222
2223 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2224 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2225
2226 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2227
2228 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2229
2230 * Released nmh-0.20.
2231
2232 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2233
2234 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2235
2236 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2237 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2238 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2239
2240 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2241 and the To: line was missing.
2242
2243 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2244
2245 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2246
2247 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2248
2249 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2250 watch the POP transaction.
2251
2252 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2253 first, and use it if available.
2254
2255 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2256 first, and use it if available.
2257
2258 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2259
2260 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2261
2262 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2263 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2264 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2265 sequence line.
2266
2267 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2268 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2269 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2270
2271 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2272 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2273 lines.
2274
2275 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2276
2277 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2278 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2279
2280 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2281
2282 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2283 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2284
2285 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2286 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2287 message to which you are replying.
2288
2289 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2290 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2291 making group replies.
2292
2293 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2294
2295 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2296
2297 * Released nmh-0.19.
2298
2299 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2300 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2301
2302 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2303 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2304 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2305 to the end of the man page.
2306
2307 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2308 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2309 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2310 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2311 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2312 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2313
2314 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2315 pages.
2316
2317 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2318 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2319 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2320
2321 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2322 the next available number above the message number you wish
2323 to preserve.
2324
2325 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2326 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2327
2328 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2329 file sbr/seq_print.c
2330
2331 * flist will now update the current folder.
2332
2333 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2334 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2335 but now undocumented.
2336
2337 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2338 traversing folders.
2339
2340 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2341 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2342
2343 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2344
2345 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2346 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2347
2348 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2349
2350 * Released nmh-0.18.
2351
2352 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2353 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2354 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2355
2356 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2357 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2358
2359 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2360 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2361 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2362 previous public/private status.
2363
2364 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2365 correctly.
2366
2367 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2368 private sequences).
2369
2370 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2371 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2372 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2373
2374 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2375 take option to determine whether it should get current
2376 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2377 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2378
2379 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2380
2381 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2382 wait for stopped processes.
2383
2384 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2385 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2386
2387 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2388
2389 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2390
2391 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2392 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2393
2394 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2395 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2396
2397 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2398 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2399 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2400 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2401
2402 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2403 status allocation).
2404
2405 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2406 the code.
2407
2408 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2409
2410 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2411 the debugging output.
2412
2413 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2414 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2415
2416 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2417
2418 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2419
2420 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2421 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2422
2423 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2424
2425 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2426 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2427 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2428 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2429 in the given sequence.
2430
2431 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2432 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2433 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2434 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2435 subdirectories of a given directory.
2436
2437 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2438 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2439 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2440
2441 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2442 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2443
2444 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2445
2446 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2447 to 0700 (was 0711).
2448
2449 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2450 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2451 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2452
2453 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2454 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2455 are calculated at runtime.
2456
2457 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2458
2459 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2460
2461 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2462 about checking for global mh.profile.
2463
2464 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2465 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2466 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2467 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2468 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2469 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2470
2471 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2472 adding message to folder itself.
2473
2474 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2475 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2476 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2477 instead of exiting.
2478
2479 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2480 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2481 the error EEXIST.
2482
2483 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2484 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2485 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2486
2487 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2488 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2489
2490 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2491 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2492 code to use it yet).
2493
2494 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2495
2496 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2497
2498 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2499 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2500
2501 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2502 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2503
2504 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2505
2506 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2507 to folder_addmsg.c
2508
2509 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2510
2511 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2512
2513 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2514
2515 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2516
2517 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2518 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2519
2520 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2521
2522 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2523
2524 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2525

2527
2528 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2529
2530 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2531 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.

2534 configuration files.
2535
2536 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2537
2538 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2539
2540 * Released nmh-0.17.
2541
2542 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2543
2544 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2545 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2546
2547 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2548 defined.
2549
2550 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2551 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2552
2553 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2554 number of refiled message.
2555
2556 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2557
2558 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2559 for return value of wait().
2560
2561 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2562

2567 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2568
2569 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2570
2571 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2572 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2573 deal with binary messages, yet).
2574
2575 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2576
2577 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2578
2579 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2580 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2581 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2582 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2583 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2584 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2585
2586 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2587 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2588
2589 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2590 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2591
2592 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2593 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2594 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2595
2596 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2597
2598 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2599
2600 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2601 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2602 composition files.
2603
2604 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2605 files.
2606
2607 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2608
2609 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2610 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2611 which used unsigned chars by default.
2612
2613 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2614
2615 * Released nmh-0.15.
2616
2617 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2618 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2619
2620 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2621
2622 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2623
2624 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2625 return 0.
2626
2627 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2628 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2629 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2630
2631 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2632 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2633
2634 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2635
2636 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2637 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2638
2639 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2640 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2641 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2642 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2643
2644 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2645 and put in own subroutine.
2646
2647 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2648 and put in own subroutine.
2649
2650 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2651 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2652 refile.c to use new routine.
2653

2658 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2659 seq_getnum.
2660
2661 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2662 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2663 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2664
2665 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2666 no longer used.
2667
2668 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2669 adding message to sequence.
2670
2671 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2672 corresponding file in sbr.
2673
2674 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2675 file in sbr.
2676
2677 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2678
2679 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2680 all selected messages from a sequence.
2681
2682 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2683 selected messages to a sequence.
2684
2685 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2686 and m_seqok.c.

2700 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2701 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2702
2703 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2704
2705 * Released nmh-0.14.

2707 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2708 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2709
2710 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2711
2712 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2713 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2714 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2715 environment variable.
2716
2717 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2718 draft folder facility in nmh.
2719
2720 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2721 to fmt_compile.h.
2722
2723 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2724 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2725 fmt_addr.c.

2727 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2728 options.
2729
2730 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2731
2732 * Released nmh-0.13.
2733
2734 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2735 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2736 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2737 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2738 to MAXARGS).
2739
2740 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2741 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2742
2743 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2744
2745 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2746 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2747
2748 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2749
2750 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2751 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2752
2753 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2754
2755 * Released nmh-0.12.
2756
2757 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2758
2759 * Released nmh-0.11.
2760
2761 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2762
2763 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2764 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2765
2766 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2767 mp->attrstats with macros.
2768
2769 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2770 in msh.c instead.
2771
2772 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2773 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2774
2775 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2776 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2777
2778 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2779 will suppress the display of the message header.
2780
2781 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2782
2783 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2784 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2785
2786 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2787
2788 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2789
2790 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2791
2792 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2793 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2794
2795 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2796 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2797
2798 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2799
2800 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2801
2802 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2803 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2804
2805 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2806 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2815 by default.
2816
2817 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2818
2819 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2820 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2821
2822 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2823 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2824
2825 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2826 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2827
2828 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2829
2830 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2831 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2832
2833 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2834

2842 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2843
2844 * Add configure check for killpg.
2845
2846 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
2847 <sys/ioctl.h>.
2848
2849 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2850
2851 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2852
2853 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2854 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2855
2856 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2857
2858 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2859
2860 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2861 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2862
2863 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2864
2865 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2866 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2867
2868 * Released nmh-0.08.
2869
2870 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2871 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2872 locking database itself.
2873
2874 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2875
2876 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2877
2878 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2879 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2880 option.
2881
2882 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2883 rather than mmdf format.
2884
2885 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2886 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2887 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2888 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2889
2890 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2891
2892 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2893
2894 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2895 added to packf.
2896
2897 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2898 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2899 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2900
2901 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2902 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2903 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2904
2905 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2906
2907 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2908 can still easily change this in config.h).
2909
2910 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2911 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2912 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2913
2914 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2915
2916 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2917 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2918
2919 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2920
2921 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2922
2923 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
2924 the suffix.
2925
2926 * Released nmh-0.07.
2927
2928 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2929
2930 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2931 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2932
2933 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2934 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2935 on SCO 5.x.
2936
2937 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2938 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2939
2940 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2941 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2942
2943 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2944
2945 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2946
2947 * Added configure check for tzset.
2948
2949 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2950
2951 * Released nmh-0.06.
2952
2953 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2954 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2955
2956 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2957 many such machines around anymore.
2958
2959 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2960 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2961
2962 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2963 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2964
2965 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2966
2967 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2968 pre-generated version if necessary.
2969
2970 * Released nmh-0.05.
2971
2972 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2973 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2974 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2975 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2976
2977 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2978 be linked in one pass.
2979
2980 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2981
2982 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2983 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2984
2985 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2986
2987 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2988
2989 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2990
2991 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2992 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2993 become the current folder.
2994
2995 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2996
2997 * Released nmh-0.04.
2998
2999 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3000 it.
3001
3002 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3003
3004 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3005 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3006 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3007
3008 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3009
3010 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3011 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3012
3013 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3014
3015 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3016 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3017 using POP.
3018
3019 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3020 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3021
3022 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3023
3024 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3025 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3026 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3027 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3028 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3029 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3030
3031 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3032
3033 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3034 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3035
3036 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3037 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3038
3039 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3040
3041 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3042 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3043
3044 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3045
3046 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3047 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3048 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3049
3050 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3051
3052 * Released nmh-0.03.
3053
3054 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3055 .mh_sequence file existed.
3056
3057 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3058 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3059
3060 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3061 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3062 man page.
3063
3064 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3065
3066 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3067 flist man page.
3068
3069 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3070
3071 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3072 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3073 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3074
3075 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3076
3077 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3078 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3079 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3080
3081 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3082
3083 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3084 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3085
3086 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3087
3088 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3089
3090 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3091 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3092 directory from where the source code is located.
3093
3094 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3095
3096 * Released nmh-0.02.
3097
3098 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3099
3100 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3101 and rcvtty.
3102
3103 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3104
3105 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3106 and sys_nerr directly.
3107
3108 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3109
3110 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3111
3112 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3113
3114 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3115
3116 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3117 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3118 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3119 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3120 rather than in script.
3121
3122 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3123
3124 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3125
3126 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3127 macro defined on Solaris.
3128
3129 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3130
3131 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3132 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3133
3134 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3135 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3136 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3137 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3138 options if enabled.
3139
3140 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3141
3142 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3143 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3144
3145 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3146 correctly found.
3147
3148 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3149
3150 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3151
3152 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3153 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3154
3155 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3156
3157 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3158 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3159
3160 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3161
3162 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3163 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3164 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3165 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3166 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3167 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3168
3169 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3170
3171 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3172
3173 * Released nmh-0.01.
3174
3175 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3176 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3177 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3178 have POSIX signals.
3179
3180 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3181
3182 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3183 their man pages.
3184
3185 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3186
3187 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3188 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3189
3190 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3191
3192 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3193 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3194 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3195 script to find_program.
3196
3197 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3198
3199 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3200 speed up -recurse option.
3201
3202 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3203 yet, but it compiles :-)
3204
3205 * Changed default location for install to
3206 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3207 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3208 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3209 level Makefile.
3210
3211 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3212 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3213 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
