3 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
4 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
6 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
8 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
9 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
10 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
11 on never operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
12 couldn't correctly identify them.
14 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
16 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
17 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
18 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
19 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
20 not depending on an external archive.
22 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
23 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
24 mts/generic is no longer built.
26 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
28 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
29 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
30 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
31 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
32 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
33 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
34 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
35 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
37 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
39 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
40 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
43 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
45 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
46 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
47 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
50 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
51 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
52 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
53 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
55 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
56 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
57 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
58 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
59 merged into the smtp code).
61 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
62 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
63 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
66 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
67 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
68 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
69 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
70 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
71 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
72 in the appropriate Makefile.in
74 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
76 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
77 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
78 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
79 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
80 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
81 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
82 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
83 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
84 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
85 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
86 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
88 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
90 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
91 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
92 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
93 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
94 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
95 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
96 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
97 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
98 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
100 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
102 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
103 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
106 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
108 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
109 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
111 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
113 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
114 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
115 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
116 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
118 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
120 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
121 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
122 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
123 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
124 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
126 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
127 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
129 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
131 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
133 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
134 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
135 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
136 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
138 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
139 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
140 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
141 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
143 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
144 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
145 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
146 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
148 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
149 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
150 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
152 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
154 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
155 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
156 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
157 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
158 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
159 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
162 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
163 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
165 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
166 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
168 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
170 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
172 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
174 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
175 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
176 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
177 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
179 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
181 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
182 be easily changed from "," to "#".
184 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
186 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
188 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
189 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
192 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
194 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
195 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
196 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
197 but not for the subsequent data stream.
199 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
201 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
202 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
203 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
204 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
205 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
207 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
209 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
210 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
212 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
213 cat, also define lorder as echo.
215 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
217 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
219 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
220 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
221 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
223 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
225 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
228 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
229 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
231 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
233 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
234 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
236 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
238 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
239 inc does not need to be setgid.
241 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
243 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
244 library, as found on Debian systems.
246 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
248 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
250 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
251 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
252 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
253 case-insensitivity flag.
255 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
257 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
258 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
260 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
262 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
263 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
264 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
265 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
266 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
267 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
268 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
269 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
270 getting moved aside).
272 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
273 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
275 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
277 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
278 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
279 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
280 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
281 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
282 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
283 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
284 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
285 the prototype, but never sets it.
287 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
288 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
289 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
290 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
291 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
292 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
294 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
295 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
296 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
297 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
298 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
300 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
302 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
303 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
306 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
307 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
308 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
309 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
310 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
311 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
312 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
314 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
316 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
318 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
319 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
320 this works on other systems.
322 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
324 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
325 checks for write failures.
327 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
329 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
331 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
334 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
336 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
338 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
340 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
341 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
344 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
346 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
347 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
348 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
349 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
351 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
353 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
354 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
357 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
358 as well as Makefiles.
360 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
362 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
363 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
364 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
365 should make maintainability easier.
367 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
368 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
369 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
370 whatever you know works.
372 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
374 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
375 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
376 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
378 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
379 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
380 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
381 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
383 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
384 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
385 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
387 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
388 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
389 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
390 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
391 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
393 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
394 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
395 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
396 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
397 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
398 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
399 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
400 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
401 from the BSD version.
403 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
404 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
405 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
407 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
410 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
413 This happens on solaris:
416 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
417 No manual entry for mts.conf.
421 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
423 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
424 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
426 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
428 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
429 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
430 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
431 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
432 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
433 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
434 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
435 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
436 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
437 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
438 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
440 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
441 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
442 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
443 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
444 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
445 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
448 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
449 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
450 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
451 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
452 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
454 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
455 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
457 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
459 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
460 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
461 to stdin, such as exmh.
463 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
464 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
465 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
468 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
470 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
471 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
472 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
473 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
474 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
475 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
476 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
478 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
480 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
481 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
483 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
485 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
486 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
488 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
490 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
493 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
494 along with any -host or -user option.
496 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
498 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
500 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
501 process was fresh in my mind.
503 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
505 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
506 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
508 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
510 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
512 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
515 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
516 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
517 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
518 part of the program's name.
520 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
521 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
524 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
526 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
527 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
528 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
529 single-character format would cause programs using this
530 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
531 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
532 when the format string was one character. This eventually
533 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
536 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
538 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
539 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
540 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
541 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
542 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
543 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
545 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
546 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
547 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
548 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
549 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
550 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
551 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
552 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
554 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
555 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
556 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
557 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
558 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
559 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
560 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
561 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
562 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
563 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
565 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
567 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
568 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
570 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
571 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
573 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
578 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
580 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
581 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
582 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
583 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
585 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
586 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
587 problem in the routine.
589 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
591 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
592 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
594 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
595 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
596 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
599 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
601 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
602 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
603 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
604 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
605 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
606 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
607 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
608 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
609 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
610 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
612 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
614 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
615 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
616 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
617 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
618 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
619 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
620 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
621 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
622 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
623 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
624 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
625 interesting than a duplication of the default.
627 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
628 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
629 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
630 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
631 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
633 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
636 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
638 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
639 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
640 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
641 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
644 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
646 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
648 * Applied, after some finessing,
649 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
651 Here's a patch that allows you to add
653 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
655 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
656 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
657 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
658 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
660 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
662 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
663 forgetting to do so!).
665 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
666 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
667 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
668 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
669 arguments to enable all three types.
671 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
672 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
674 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
675 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
676 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
677 updated copy of mts.conf.
679 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
681 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
682 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
683 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
685 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
687 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
689 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
690 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
691 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
693 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
694 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
695 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
697 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
698 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
699 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
701 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
703 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
705 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
707 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
709 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
710 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
712 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
713 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
714 certain suffix to run properly.
716 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
717 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
718 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
720 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
721 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
722 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
723 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
724 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
725 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
726 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
728 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
730 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
731 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
732 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
733 until some year far in the future).
735 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
737 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
739 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
740 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
742 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
743 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
746 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
748 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
749 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
750 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
751 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
752 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
753 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
755 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
757 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
759 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
760 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
761 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
763 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
764 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
765 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
766 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
767 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
768 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
771 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
772 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
773 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
774 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
775 of masquerading individually.
777 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
778 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
779 GECOS field delimiters.
781 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
783 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
784 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
785 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
786 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
787 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
788 and explaining the feature.
790 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
792 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
793 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
796 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
797 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
798 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
800 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
801 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
802 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
803 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
805 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
806 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
807 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
810 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
812 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
815 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
817 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
819 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
820 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
821 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
822 quotes embedded in them.
824 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
826 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
827 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
828 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
829 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
830 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
831 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
832 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
835 The other theory is that because you can say something like
836 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
837 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
838 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
839 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
841 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
843 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
845 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
846 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
847 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
848 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
850 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
853 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
855 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
857 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
859 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
860 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
861 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
863 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
866 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
868 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
869 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
870 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
871 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
872 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
873 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
875 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
876 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
878 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
880 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
883 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
885 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
886 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
887 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
890 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
891 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
892 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
893 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
894 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
895 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
896 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
897 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
898 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
899 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
900 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
901 processing that post has).
903 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
905 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
906 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
907 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
908 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
909 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
910 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
913 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
915 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
917 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
919 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
921 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
922 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
924 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
927 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
929 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
930 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
931 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
934 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
936 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
937 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
938 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
939 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
940 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
941 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
943 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
945 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
947 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
949 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
950 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
951 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
952 caught again. This works for now.
954 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
956 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
958 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
959 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
961 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
963 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
964 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
966 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
968 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
970 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
972 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
973 changes. Both need more cleanup.
975 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
977 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
978 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
979 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
980 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
981 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
984 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
986 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
987 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
988 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
990 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
991 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
994 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
996 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
997 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
998 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1000 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1002 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1003 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1005 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1007 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1010 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1011 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1013 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1014 macros, regardless of platform.
1016 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1017 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1019 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1020 with x-conversions=gzip.
1022 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1024 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1027 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1028 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1029 implicit definition of ioctl().
1031 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1032 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1033 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1034 want to mess with them.
1036 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1038 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1039 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1041 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1042 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1044 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1045 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1046 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1048 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1049 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1050 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1052 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1053 function initgroups.
1055 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1058 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1059 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1062 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1063 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1066 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1067 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1071 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1073 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1074 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1075 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1077 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1078 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1080 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1082 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1084 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1085 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1086 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1087 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1089 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1090 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1092 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1094 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1096 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1098 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1099 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1101 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1103 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1104 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1106 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1107 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1108 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1109 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1111 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1112 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1114 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1116 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1117 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1119 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1121 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1122 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1125 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1127 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1129 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1131 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1132 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1134 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1135 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1136 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1138 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1139 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1140 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1142 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1143 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1144 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1146 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1147 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1150 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1151 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1153 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1154 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1156 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1157 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1159 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1160 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1161 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1163 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1164 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1166 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1167 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1168 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1170 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1171 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1174 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1175 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1177 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1178 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1179 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1180 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1182 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1183 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1185 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1189 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1190 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1191 would not be changed.
1193 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1194 one from the Apache web server.
1196 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1197 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1199 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1200 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1201 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1203 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1205 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1207 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1208 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1211 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1212 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1213 removes a bad race condition.
1215 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1218 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1219 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1220 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1222 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1223 sequence information.
1225 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1226 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1228 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1231 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1234 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1236 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1237 interpret 034 as octal.
1239 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1241 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1242 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1244 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1245 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1247 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1248 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1250 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1251 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1253 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1254 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1256 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1257 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1258 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1260 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1261 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1262 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1264 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1266 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1268 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1269 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1272 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1274 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1275 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1277 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1278 header field information.
1280 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1281 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1283 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1284 values when parsing a content.
1286 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1287 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1289 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1290 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1292 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1293 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1295 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1296 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1298 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1300 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1302 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1304 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1306 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1307 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1310 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1311 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1313 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1314 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1315 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1316 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1317 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1318 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1321 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1323 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1324 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1325 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1327 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1328 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1330 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1332 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1333 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1334 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1335 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1337 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1338 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1341 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1342 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1343 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1344 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1347 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1349 * Released nmh-0.27.
1351 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1352 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1354 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1355 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1356 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1357 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1360 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1361 mhbuild returns an error.
1363 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1364 rename the draft file.
1366 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1367 use a global variable.
1369 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1370 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1372 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1373 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1375 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1376 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1377 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1379 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1380 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1382 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1383 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1386 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1387 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1390 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1391 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1393 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1394 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1395 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1397 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1398 to new function output_content_folder.
1400 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1401 new function output_content_file.
1403 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1404 to new function parse_format_string.
1406 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1407 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1408 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1409 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1411 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1412 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1413 message/external file from ftp.
1415 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1416 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1417 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1419 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1420 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1423 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1426 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1427 new file mhstoresbr.c
1429 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1432 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1433 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1435 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1436 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1438 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1439 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1440 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1442 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1444 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1446 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1447 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1450 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1451 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1453 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1456 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1458 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1460 * Released nmh-0.26.
1462 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1463 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1464 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1465 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1467 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1468 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1469 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1470 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1471 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1473 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1474 But it is not on by default.
1476 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1477 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1479 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1481 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1483 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1485 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1487 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1488 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1490 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1492 * Released nmh-0.25.
1494 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1495 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1496 uses the original name of the library.
1498 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1499 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1502 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1503 list_content and list_debug.
1505 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1507 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1508 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1510 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1512 * Released nmh-0.24.
1514 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1516 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1517 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1519 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1520 large sequence line.
1522 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1524 * Released nmh-0.23.
1526 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1528 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1529 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1530 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1531 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1533 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1534 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1537 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1539 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1541 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1543 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1544 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1546 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1547 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1549 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1550 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1552 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1553 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1555 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1557 * Released nmh-0.22.
1559 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1560 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1562 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1564 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1565 mh-profile(5) man page.
1567 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1568 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1570 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1572 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1574 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1575 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1577 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1579 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1580 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1581 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1583 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1584 source message on the standard input.
1586 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1588 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1589 rather than -rfc934mode.
1591 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1592 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1595 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1596 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1598 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1601 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1603 * Released nmh-0.21.
1605 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1606 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1608 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1611 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1612 to use for text contents.
1614 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1616 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1618 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1620 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1622 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1623 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1625 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1626 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1627 spaces between encoded word are.
1629 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1631 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1632 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1634 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1635 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1636 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1638 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1640 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1641 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1643 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1645 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1647 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1648 ISO-8859-X character set.
1650 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1653 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1654 permissions, not write permissions.
1656 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1657 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1659 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1662 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1664 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1666 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1667 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1669 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1670 message contains valid character set.
1672 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1673 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1675 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1676 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1678 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1679 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1680 between an encoded word and normal text.
1682 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1683 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1685 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1686 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1688 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1691 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1692 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1695 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1696 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1698 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1699 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1701 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1703 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1705 * Released nmh-0.20.
1707 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1709 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1711 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1712 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1713 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1715 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1716 and the To: line was missing.
1718 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1720 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1722 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1724 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1725 watch the POP transaction.
1727 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1728 first, and use it if available.
1730 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1731 first, and use it if available.
1733 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1735 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1737 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1738 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1739 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1742 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1743 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1744 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1746 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1747 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1750 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1752 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1753 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1755 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1757 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1758 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1760 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1761 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1762 message to which you are replying.
1764 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1765 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1766 making group replies.
1768 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1770 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1772 * Released nmh-0.19.
1774 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1775 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1777 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1778 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1779 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1780 to the end of the man page.
1782 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1783 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1784 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1785 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1786 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1787 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1789 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1792 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1793 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1794 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1796 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1797 the next available number above the message number you wish
1800 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1801 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1803 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1804 file sbr/seq_print.c
1806 * flist will now update the current folder.
1808 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1809 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1810 but now undocumented.
1812 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1815 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1816 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1818 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1820 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1821 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1823 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1825 * Released nmh-0.18.
1827 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1828 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1829 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1831 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1832 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1834 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1835 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1836 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1837 previous public/private status.
1839 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1842 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1845 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1846 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1847 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1849 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1850 take option to determine whether it should get current
1851 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1852 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1854 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1856 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1857 wait for stopped processes.
1859 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1860 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1862 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1864 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1866 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1867 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1869 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1870 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1872 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1873 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1874 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1875 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1877 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1880 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1883 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1885 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1886 the debugging output.
1888 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1889 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1891 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1893 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1895 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1896 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1898 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1900 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1901 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1902 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1903 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1904 in the given sequence.
1906 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1907 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1908 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1909 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1910 subdirectories of a given directory.
1912 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1913 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1914 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1916 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1917 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1919 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1921 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1924 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1925 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1926 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1928 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1929 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1930 are calculated at runtime.
1932 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1934 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1936 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1937 about checking for global mh.profile.
1939 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1940 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1941 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1942 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1943 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1944 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1946 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1947 adding message to folder itself.
1949 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1950 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1951 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1954 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1955 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1958 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1959 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1960 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1962 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1963 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1965 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1966 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1967 code to use it yet).
1969 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1971 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1973 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1974 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1976 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1977 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1979 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1981 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1984 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1986 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1988 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1990 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1992 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1993 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1995 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1997 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1999 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2001 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2003 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2005 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2006 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2008 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2009 configuration files.
2011 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.

2017 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2019 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2020 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2022 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2025 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2026 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2028 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2029 number of refiled message.
2031 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2033 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2034 for return value of wait().
2036 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2038 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2040 * Released nmh-0.16.
2042 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2044 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2046 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2047 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2048 deal with binary messages, yet).
2050 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2052 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2054 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2055 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2056 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2057 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2058 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2059 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2061 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2062 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2064 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2065 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2067 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2068 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2071 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2073 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2075 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2076 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2079 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2082 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2084 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2085 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2086 which used unsigned chars by default.
2088 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2090 * Released nmh-0.15.
2092 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

2097 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2099 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2102 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2103 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2104 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2106 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2107 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2109 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2111 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2112 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2114 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2115 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2116 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2117 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2119 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2120 and put in own subroutine.
2122 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2123 and put in own subroutine.
2125 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2126 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2127 refile.c to use new routine.
2129 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2131 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2133 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2136 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2137 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2138 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2140 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2143 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2144 adding message to sequence.
2146 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2147 corresponding file in sbr.
2149 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2152 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2154 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2155 all selected messages from a sequence.
2157 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2158 selected messages to a sequence.
2160 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2163 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2165 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it

2183 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2185 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2187 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2188 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2189 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2190 environment variable.
2192 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2193 draft folder facility in nmh.

2207 * Released nmh-0.13.
2209 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2210 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2211 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2212 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2215 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2216 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2218 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2220 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2221 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2223 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2225 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2226 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

2230 * Released nmh-0.12.
2232 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

2238 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2239 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2241 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2242 mp->attrstats with macros.
2244 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2247 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2250 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2251 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2253 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2254 will suppress the display of the message header.
2256 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2258 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2259 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2261 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2263 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2265 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2267 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2268 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2270 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2271 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2273 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2275 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2277 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2278 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2280 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2281 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2283 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2285 * Released nmh-0.10.

2292 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2294 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2295 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2297 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2298 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2300 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2301 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2303 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2305 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2306 of inet_addr with NOTOK.

2315 * Released nmh-0.09.
2317 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2319 * Add configure check for killpg.
2321 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
2324 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2326 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2328 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2331 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2333 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2335 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2336 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2338 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2340 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2341 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2343 * Released nmh-0.08.
2345 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2346 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2347 locking database itself.
2349 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2351 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2353 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2354 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2357 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2358 rather than mmdf format.
2360 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2361 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2362 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2363 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2365 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2367 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2369 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2372 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2373 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2374 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2376 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2377 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2378 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2380 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2382 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2383 can still easily change this in config.h).
2385 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2386 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2387 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2389 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2391 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2392 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2394 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2396 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2398 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
2401 * Released nmh-0.07.
2403 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2405 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2406 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2408 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2409 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2412 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2413 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2415 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2416 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2418 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2420 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2422 * Added configure check for tzset.
2424 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2426 * Released nmh-0.06.
2428 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2429 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2431 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2432 many such machines around anymore.
2434 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2435 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2437 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2438 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2440 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2442 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2443 pre-generated version if necessary.
2445 * Released nmh-0.05.
2447 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2448 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2449 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2450 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2452 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2453 be linked in one pass.
2455 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2457 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2458 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2460 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2462 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2464 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2466 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2467 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2468 become the current folder.
2470 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2472 * Released nmh-0.04.
2474 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2477 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2479 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2480 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2481 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2483 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2485 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2486 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2488 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2490 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2491 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2494 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2495 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2497 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2499 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2500 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2501 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2502 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2503 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2504 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2506 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2508 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2509 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2511 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2512 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2514 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2516 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2517 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2519 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2521 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2522 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2523 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2525 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2527 * Released nmh-0.03.
2529 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2530 .mh_sequence file existed.
2532 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2533 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2535 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2536 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2539 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2541 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2544 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2546 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2547 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2548 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2550 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2552 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2553 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2554 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2556 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2558 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2559 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2561 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2563 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2565 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2566 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2567 directory from where the source code is located.
2569 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2571 * Released nmh-0.02.
2573 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2575 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
2578 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2580 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2581 and sys_nerr directly.
2583 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2585 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2587 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2589 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2591 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2592 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2593 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2594 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2595 rather than in script.
2597 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2599 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2601 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2602 macro defined on Solaris.
2604 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2606 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2607 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2609 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2610 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2611 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2612 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2615 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2617 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2618 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2620 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2623 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2625 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2627 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2628 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2630 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2632 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2633 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2635 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2637 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2638 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2639 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2640 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2641 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2642 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2644 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2646 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2648 * Released nmh-0.01.
2650 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2651 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2652 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2655 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2657 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2660 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2662 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2663 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2665 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2667 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2668 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2669 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2670 script to find_program.
2672 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2674 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2675 speed up -recurse option.
2677 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2678 yet, but it compiles :-)
2680 * Changed default location for install to
2681 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2682 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2683 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2686 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2687 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2688 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
