1 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
3 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
4 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
5 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
6 but not for the subsequent data stream.
8 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
10 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
11 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
12 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
13 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
14 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
16 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
18 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
19 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
21 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
22 cat, also define lorder as echo.
24 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
26 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
28 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
29 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
30 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
32 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
34 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
37 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
38 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
40 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
42 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
43 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
45 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
47 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
48 inc does not need to be setgid.
50 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
52 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
53 library, as found on Debian systems.
55 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
57 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
59 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
60 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
61 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
62 case-insensitivity flag.
64 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
66 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
67 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
69 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
71 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
72 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
73 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
74 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
75 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
76 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
77 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
78 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
81 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
82 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
84 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
86 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
87 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
88 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
89 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
90 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
91 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
92 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
93 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
94 the prototype, but never sets it.
96 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
97 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
98 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
99 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
100 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
101 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
103 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
104 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
105 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
106 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
107 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
109 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
111 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
112 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
115 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
116 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
117 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
118 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
119 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
120 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
121 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
123 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
125 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
127 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
128 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
129 this works on other systems.
131 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
133 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
134 checks for write failures.
136 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
138 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
140 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
143 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
145 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
147 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
149 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
150 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
153 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
155 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
156 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
157 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
158 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
160 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
162 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
163 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
166 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
167 as well as Makefiles.
169 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
171 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
172 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
173 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
174 should make maintainability easier.
176 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
177 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
178 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
179 whatever you know works.
181 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
183 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
184 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
185 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
187 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
188 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
189 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
190 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
192 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
193 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
194 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
196 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
197 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
198 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
199 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
200 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
202 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
203 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
204 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
205 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
206 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
207 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
208 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
209 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
210 from the BSD version.
212 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
213 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
214 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
216 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
219 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
222 This happens on solaris:
225 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
226 No manual entry for mts.conf.
230 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
232 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
233 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
235 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
237 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
238 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
239 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
240 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
241 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
242 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
243 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
244 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
245 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
246 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
247 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
249 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
250 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
251 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
252 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
253 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
254 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
257 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
258 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
259 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
260 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
261 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
263 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
264 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
266 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
268 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
269 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
270 to stdin, such as exmh.
272 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
273 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
274 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
277 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
279 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
280 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
281 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
282 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
283 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
284 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
285 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
287 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
289 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
290 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
292 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
294 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
295 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
297 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
299 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
302 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
303 along with any -host or -user option.
305 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
307 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
309 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
310 process was fresh in my mind.
312 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
314 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
315 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
317 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
319 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
321 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
324 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
325 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
326 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
327 part of the program's name.
329 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
330 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
333 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
335 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
336 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
337 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
338 single-character format would cause programs using this
339 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
340 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
341 when the format string was one character. This eventually
342 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
345 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
347 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
348 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
349 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
350 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
351 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
352 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
354 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
355 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
356 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
357 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
358 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
359 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
360 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
361 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
363 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
364 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
365 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
366 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
367 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
368 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
369 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
370 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
371 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
372 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
374 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
376 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
377 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
379 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
380 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
382 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
387 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
389 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
390 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
391 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
392 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
394 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
395 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
396 problem in the routine.
398 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
400 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
401 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
403 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
404 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
405 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
408 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
410 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
411 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
412 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
413 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
414 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
415 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
416 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
417 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
418 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
419 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
421 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
423 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
424 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
425 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
426 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
427 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
428 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
429 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
430 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
431 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
432 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
433 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
434 interesting than a duplication of the default.
436 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
437 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
438 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
439 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
440 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
442 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
445 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
447 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
448 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
449 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
450 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
453 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
455 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
457 * Applied, after some finessing,
458 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
460 Here's a patch that allows you to add
462 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
464 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
465 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
466 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
467 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
469 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
471 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
472 forgetting to do so!).
474 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
475 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
476 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
477 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
478 arguments to enable all three types.
480 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
481 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
483 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
484 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
485 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
486 updated copy of mts.conf.
488 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
490 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
491 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
492 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
494 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
496 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
498 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
499 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
500 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
502 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
503 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
504 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
506 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
507 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
508 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
510 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
512 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
514 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
516 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
518 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
519 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
521 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
522 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
523 certain suffix to run properly.
525 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
526 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
527 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
529 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
530 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
531 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
532 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
533 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
534 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
535 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
537 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
539 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
540 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
541 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
542 until some year far in the future).
544 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
546 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
548 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
549 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
551 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
552 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
555 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
557 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
558 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
559 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
560 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
561 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
562 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
564 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
566 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
568 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
569 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
570 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
572 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
573 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
574 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
575 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
576 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
577 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
580 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
581 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
582 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
583 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
584 of masquerading individually.
586 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
587 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
588 GECOS field delimiters.
590 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
592 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
593 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
594 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
595 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
596 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
597 and explaining the feature.
599 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
601 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
602 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
605 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
606 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
607 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
609 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
610 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
611 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
612 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
614 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
615 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
616 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
619 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
621 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
624 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
626 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
628 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
629 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
630 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
631 quotes embedded in them.
633 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
635 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
636 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
637 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
638 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
639 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
640 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
641 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
644 The other theory is that because you can say something like
645 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
646 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
647 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
648 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
650 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
652 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
654 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
655 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
656 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
657 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
659 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
662 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
664 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
666 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
668 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
669 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
670 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
672 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
675 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
677 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
678 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
679 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
680 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
681 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
682 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
684 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
685 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
687 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
689 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
692 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
694 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
695 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
696 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
699 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
700 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
701 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
702 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
703 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
704 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
705 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
706 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
707 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
708 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
709 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
710 processing that post has).
712 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
714 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
715 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
716 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
717 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
718 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
719 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
722 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
724 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
726 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
728 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
730 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
731 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
733 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
736 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
738 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
739 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
740 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
743 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
745 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
746 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
747 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
748 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
749 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
750 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
752 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
754 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
756 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
758 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
759 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
760 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
761 caught again. This works for now.
763 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
765 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
767 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
768 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
770 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
772 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
773 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
775 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
777 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
779 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
781 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
782 changes. Both need more cleanup.
784 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
786 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
787 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
788 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
789 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
790 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
793 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
795 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
796 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
797 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
799 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
800 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
803 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
805 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
806 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
807 to a directory on another device with more free space.
809 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
811 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
812 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
814 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
816 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
819 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
820 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
822 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
823 macros, regardless of platform.
825 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
826 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
828 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
829 with x-conversions=gzip.
831 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
833 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
836 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
837 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
838 implicit definition of ioctl().
840 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
841 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
842 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
843 want to mess with them.
845 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
847 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
848 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
850 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
851 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
853 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
854 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
855 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
857 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
858 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
859 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
861 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
864 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
867 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
868 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
871 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
872 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
875 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
876 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
880 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
882 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
883 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
884 preventing compilation on at least linux.
886 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
887 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
889 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
891 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
893 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
894 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
895 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
896 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
898 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
899 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
901 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
903 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
905 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
907 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
908 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
910 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
912 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
913 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
915 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
916 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
917 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
918 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
920 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
921 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
923 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
925 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
926 substitute it for mktemp if available.
928 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
930 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
931 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
934 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
936 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
938 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
940 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
941 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
943 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
944 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
945 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
947 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
948 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
949 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
951 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
952 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
953 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
955 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
956 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
959 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
960 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
962 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
963 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
965 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
968 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
969 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
970 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
972 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
973 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
975 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
976 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
977 <elleron@servtech.com>.
979 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
980 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
983 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
984 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
986 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
987 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
988 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
989 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
991 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
992 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
994 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
998 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
999 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1000 would not be changed.
1002 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1003 one from the Apache web server.
1005 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1006 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1008 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1009 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1010 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1012 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1014 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1016 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1017 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1020 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1021 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1022 removes a bad race condition.
1024 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1027 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1028 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1029 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1031 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1032 sequence information.
1034 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1035 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1037 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1040 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1043 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1045 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1046 interpret 034 as octal.
1048 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1050 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1051 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1053 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1054 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1056 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1057 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1059 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1060 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1062 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1063 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1065 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1066 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1067 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1069 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1070 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1071 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1073 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1075 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1077 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1078 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1081 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1083 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1084 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1086 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1087 header field information.
1089 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1090 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1092 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1093 values when parsing a content.
1095 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1096 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1098 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1099 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1101 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1102 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1104 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1105 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1107 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1109 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1111 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1113 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1115 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1116 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1119 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1120 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1122 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1123 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1124 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1125 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1126 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1127 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1130 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1132 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1133 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1134 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1136 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1137 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1139 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1141 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1142 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1143 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1144 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1146 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1147 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1150 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1151 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1152 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1153 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1156 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1158 * Released nmh-0.27.
1160 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1161 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1163 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1164 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1165 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1166 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1169 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1170 mhbuild returns an error.
1172 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1173 rename the draft file.
1175 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1176 use a global variable.
1178 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1179 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1181 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1182 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1184 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1185 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1186 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1188 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1189 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1191 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1192 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1195 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1196 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1199 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1200 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1202 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1203 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1204 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1206 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1207 to new function output_content_folder.
1209 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1210 new function output_content_file.
1212 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1213 to new function parse_format_string.
1215 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1216 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1217 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1218 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1220 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1221 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1222 message/external file from ftp.
1224 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1225 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1226 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1228 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1229 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1232 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1235 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1236 new file mhstoresbr.c
1238 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1241 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1242 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1244 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1245 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1247 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1248 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1249 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1251 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1253 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1255 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1256 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1259 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1260 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1262 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1265 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1267 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1269 * Released nmh-0.26.
1271 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1272 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1273 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1274 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1276 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1277 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1278 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1279 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1280 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1282 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1283 But it is not on by default.
1285 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1286 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1288 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1290 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1292 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1294 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1296 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1297 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1299 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1301 * Released nmh-0.25.
1303 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1304 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1305 uses the original name of the library.
1307 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1308 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1311 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1312 list_content and list_debug.
1314 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1316 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1317 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1319 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1321 * Released nmh-0.24.
1323 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1325 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1326 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1328 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1329 large sequence line.
1331 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1333 * Released nmh-0.23.
1335 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1337 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1338 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1339 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1340 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1342 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1343 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1346 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1348 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1350 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1352 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1353 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1355 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1356 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1358 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1359 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1361 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1362 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1364 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1366 * Released nmh-0.22.
1368 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1369 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1371 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1373 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1374 mh-profile(5) man page.
1376 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1377 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1379 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1381 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1383 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1384 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1386 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1388 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1389 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1390 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1392 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1393 source message on the standard input.
1395 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1397 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1398 rather than -rfc934mode.
1400 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1401 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1404 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1405 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1407 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1410 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1412 * Released nmh-0.21.
1414 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1415 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1417 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1420 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1421 to use for text contents.
1423 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1425 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1427 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1429 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1431 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1432 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1434 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1435 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1436 spaces between encoded word are.
1438 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1440 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1441 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1443 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1444 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1445 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1447 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1449 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1450 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1452 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1454 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1456 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1457 ISO-8859-X character set.
1459 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1462 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1463 permissions, not write permissions.
1465 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1466 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1468 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1471 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1473 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1475 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1476 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1478 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1479 message contains valid character set.
1481 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1482 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1484 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1485 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1487 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1488 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1489 between an encoded word and normal text.
1491 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1492 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1494 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1495 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1497 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1500 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1501 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1504 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1505 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1507 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1508 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1510 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1512 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1514 * Released nmh-0.20.
1516 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1518 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1520 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1521 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1522 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1524 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1525 and the To: line was missing.
1527 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1529 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1531 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1533 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1534 watch the POP transaction.
1536 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1537 first, and use it if available.
1539 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1540 first, and use it if available.
1542 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1544 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1546 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1547 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1548 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1551 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1552 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1553 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1555 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1556 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1559 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1561 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1562 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1564 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1566 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1567 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1569 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1570 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1571 message to which you are replying.
1573 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1574 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1575 making group replies.
1577 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1579 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1581 * Released nmh-0.19.
1583 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1584 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1586 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1587 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1588 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1589 to the end of the man page.
1591 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1592 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1593 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1594 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1595 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1596 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1598 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1601 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1602 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1603 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1605 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1606 the next available number above the message number you wish
1609 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1610 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1612 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1613 file sbr/seq_print.c
1615 * flist will now update the current folder.
1617 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1618 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1619 but now undocumented.
1621 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1624 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1625 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1627 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1629 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1630 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1632 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1634 * Released nmh-0.18.
1636 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1637 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1638 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1640 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1641 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1643 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1644 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1645 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1646 previous public/private status.
1648 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1651 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1654 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1655 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1656 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1658 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1659 take option to determine whether it should get current
1660 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1661 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1663 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1665 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1666 wait for stopped processes.
1668 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1669 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1671 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1673 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1675 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1676 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1678 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1679 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1681 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1682 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1683 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1684 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1686 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1689 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1692 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1694 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1695 the debugging output.
1697 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1698 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1700 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1702 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1704 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1705 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1707 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1709 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1710 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1711 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1712 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1713 in the given sequence.
1715 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1716 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1717 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1718 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1719 subdirectories of a given directory.
1721 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1722 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1723 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1725 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1726 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1728 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1730 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1733 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1734 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1735 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1737 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1738 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1739 are calculated at runtime.
1741 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1743 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1745 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1746 about checking for global mh.profile.

1751 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1752 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1753 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1755 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1756 adding message to folder itself.
1758 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1759 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1760 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1763 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1764 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1767 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1768 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1769 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1771 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1772 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1774 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1775 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1776 code to use it yet).

1826 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1828 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1829 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1831 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1834 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1835 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1837 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1838 number of refiled message.
1840 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1842 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1843 for return value of wait().

1853 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1855 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1856 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1857 deal with binary messages, yet).
1859 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1861 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1863 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1864 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1865 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1866 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1867 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1868 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1870 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1871 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1873 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1874 From MH-6.8.4 patch.

1877 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1880 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1882 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".

1885 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1888 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1891 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1893 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1894 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1895 which used unsigned chars by default.

1899 * Released nmh-0.15.
1901 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1906 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1908 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1911 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1912 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1913 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1915 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1916 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1918 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1920 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1921 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1923 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1924 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1925 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1926 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1928 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1929 and put in own subroutine.
1931 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1932 and put in own subroutine.
1934 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1935 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1936 refile.c to use new routine.
1938 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1940 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1942 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1945 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1946 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1947 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1949 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1952 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1953 adding message to sequence.

1956 corresponding file in sbr.
1958 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1961 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.

1964 all selected messages from a sequence.
1966 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1967 selected messages to a sequence.
1969 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1972 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1974 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1975 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1977 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1979 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

1996 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1997 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1998 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1999 environment variable.
2001 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2002 draft folder facility in nmh.
2004 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h

2016 * Released nmh-0.13.
2018 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2019 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2020 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2021 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2024 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2025 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2027 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2029 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2030 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2032 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2034 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2056 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2059 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2060 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2062 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2063 will suppress the display of the message header.
2065 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2067 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2068 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2070 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2072 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2074 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2076 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2077 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2079 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2080 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2082 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2084 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2086 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2087 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2089 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2090 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2092 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2094 * Released nmh-0.10.

2101 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2103 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2104 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2106 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2107 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2109 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2110 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2112 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2114 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2115 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2117 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2119 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2120 of missing tabs in regex.

2140 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2142 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2144 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2145 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2147 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2149 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2150 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2152 * Released nmh-0.08.
2154 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2155 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2156 locking database itself.
2158 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2160 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2162 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2163 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2166 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2167 rather than mmdf format.
2169 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2170 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2171 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2172 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2174 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2176 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2178 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2181 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2182 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2183 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2185 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2186 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2187 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2189 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2191 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2192 can still easily change this in config.h).
2194 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2195 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2196 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2198 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2200 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2201 than tzset and external timezone variable.

2212 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2214 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2215 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2217 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2218 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2221 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2222 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2224 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2225 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2227 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2229 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2231 * Added configure check for tzset.
2233 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2235 * Released nmh-0.06.
2237 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2238 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2240 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2241 many such machines around anymore.
2243 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2244 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2246 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2247 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2249 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2251 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2252 pre-generated version if necessary.
2254 * Released nmh-0.05.
2256 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2257 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2258 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2259 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2261 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2262 be linked in one pass.
2264 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2266 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2267 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2269 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2271 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2273 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2275 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2276 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2277 become the current folder.
2279 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2281 * Released nmh-0.04.
2283 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2286 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2288 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2289 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2290 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2292 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2294 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2295 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2297 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2299 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2300 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2303 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2304 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2306 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2308 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2309 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2310 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2311 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2312 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2313 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2315 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2317 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2318 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2320 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2321 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2323 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2325 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2326 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2328 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2330 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2331 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2332 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2334 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2336 * Released nmh-0.03.
2338 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2339 .mh_sequence file existed.
2341 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2342 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2344 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2345 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2348 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2350 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2353 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2355 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2356 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2357 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2359 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2361 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2362 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2363 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2365 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2367 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2368 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2370 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2372 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2374 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2375 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2376 directory from where the source code is located.
2378 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2380 * Released nmh-0.02.
2382 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2387 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2389 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2390 and sys_nerr directly.
2392 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2394 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2396 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2398 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2400 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2401 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2402 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2403 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2404 rather than in script.
2406 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2408 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2410 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2411 macro defined on Solaris.
2413 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2415 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2416 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2418 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2419 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2420 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2421 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2424 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2426 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2427 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2429 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2432 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2434 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2436 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2437 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2439 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2441 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2442 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2444 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2446 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2447 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2448 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2449 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2450 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2451 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2453 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2455 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2457 * Released nmh-0.01.
2459 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2460 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2461 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2464 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2466 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2469 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2471 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2472 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2474 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2476 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2477 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2478 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2479 script to find_program.
2481 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2483 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2484 speed up -recurse option.
2486 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2487 yet, but it compiles :-)
2489 * Changed default location for install to
2490 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2491 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2492 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2495 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2496 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2497 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
