2
3 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
4 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Changed the suffix for the backed-up
5 previous versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to
6 .prev. Use diff and only keep the .prev file around if different.
7
8 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
9
10 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
11 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
12 of tws.h.
13
14 * Rewrote dparsetime (dtimep.c) to replace the old
15 zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
16 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
17 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
18 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
19 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
20 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
21
22 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
23
24 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
25
26 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
27 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
28 this works on other systems.
29
30 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
31
32 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
33 checks for write failures.
34
35 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
36
37 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
38
39 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
40 is patched in.
41
42 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
43
44 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
45
46 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
47
48 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
49 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
50 a buffer boundary.
51
52 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
53
54 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
55 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
56 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
57 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
58
59 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
60
61 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
62 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
63 place.
64
65 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
66 as well as Makefiles.
67
68 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
69
70 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
71 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
72 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
73 should make maintainability easier.
74
75 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
76 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
77 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
78 whatever you know works.
79
80 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
81
82 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
83 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
84 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
85
86 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
87 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
88 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
89 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
90
91 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
92 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
93 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
94
95 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
96 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
97 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
98 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
99 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
100
101 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
102 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
103 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
104 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
105 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
106 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
107 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
108 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
109 from the BSD version.
110
111 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
112 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
113 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
114
115 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
116 in ruserpass.c also.
117
118 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
119 report:
120
121 This happens on solaris:
122
123 % man mts.conf
124 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
125 No manual entry for mts.conf.
126
127 It is fixed by
128
129 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
130
131 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
132 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
133
134 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
135
136 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
137 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
138 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
139 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
140 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
141 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
142 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
143 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
144 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
145 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
146 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
147
148 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
149 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
150 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
151 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
152 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
153 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
154 out of nowhere.
155
156 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
157 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
158 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
159 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
160 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
161
162 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
163 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
164
165 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
166
167 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
168 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
169 to stdin, such as exmh.
170
171 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
172 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
173 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
174 other files.
175
176 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
177
178 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
179 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
180 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
181 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
182 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
183 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
184 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
185
186 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
187
188 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
189 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
190
191 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
192
193 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
194 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
195
196 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
197
198 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
199 --enable-apop.
200
201 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
202 along with any -host or -user option.
203
204 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
205
206 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
207
208 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
209 process was fresh in my mind.
210
211 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
212
213 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
214 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
215
216 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
217
218 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
219
220 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
221 patch:
222
223 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
224 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
225 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
226 part of the program's name.
227
228 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
229 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
230 to quote.
231
232 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
233
234 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
235 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
236 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
237 single-character format would cause programs using this
238 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
239 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
240 when the format string was one character. This eventually
241 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
242 in the array.
243
244 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
245
246 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
247 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
248 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
249 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
250 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
251 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
252
253 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
254 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
255 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
256 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
257 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
258 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
259 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
260 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
261
262 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
263 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
264 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
265 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
266 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
267 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
268 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
269 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
270 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
271 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
272
273 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
274
275 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
276 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
277
278 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
279 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
280
281 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
282 exit 2
283
284 and:
285
286 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
287
288 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
289 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
290 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
291 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
292
293 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
294 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
295 problem in the routine.
296
297 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
298
299 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
300 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
301
302 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
303 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
304 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
305 spool somehow.
306
307 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
308
309 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
310 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
311 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
312 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
313 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
314 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
315 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
316 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
317 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
318 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
319
320 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
321
322 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
323 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
324 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
325 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
326 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
327 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
328 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
329 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
330 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
331 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
332 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
333 interesting than a duplication of the default.
334
335 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
336 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
337 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
338 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
339 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
340
341 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
342 POP is enabled.
343
344 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
345
346 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
347 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
348 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
349 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
350 here.
351
352 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
353
354 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
355
356 * Applied, after some finessing,
357 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
358
359 Here's a patch that allows you to add
360
361 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
362
363 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
364 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
365 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
366 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
367
368 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
369
370 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
371 forgetting to do so!).
372
373 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
374 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
375 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
376 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
377 arguments to enable all three types.
378
379 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
380 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
381
382 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
383 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
384 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
385 updated copy of mts.conf.
386
387 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
388
389 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
390 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
391 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
392
393 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
394 and
395 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
396
397 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
398 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
399 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
400
401 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
402 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
403 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
404
405 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
406 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
407 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
408
409 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
410
411 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
412
413 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
414
415 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
416
417 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
418 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
419
420 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
421 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
422 certain suffix to run properly.
423
424 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
425 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
426 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
427
428 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
429 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
430 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
431 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
432 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
433 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
434 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
435
436 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
437
438 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
439 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
440 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
441 until some year far in the future).
442
443 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
444
445 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
446
447 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
448 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
449
450 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
451 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
452 corrupted.
453
454 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
455
456 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
457 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
458 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
459 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
460 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
461 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
462
463 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
464
465 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
466
467 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
468 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
469 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
470
471 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
472 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
473 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
474 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
475 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
476 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
477 leads me to:
478
479 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
480 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
481 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
482 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
483 of masquerading individually.
484
485 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
486 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
487 GECOS field delimiters.
488
489 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
490
491 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
492 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
493 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
494 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
495 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
496 and explaining the feature.
497
498 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
499
500 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
501 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
502 so).
503
504 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
505 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
506 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
507
508 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
509 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
510 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
511 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
512
513 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
514 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
515 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
516 anywhere.
517
518 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
519
520 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
521 code to be executed.
522
523 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
524
525 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
526
527 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
528 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
529 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
530 quotes embedded in them.
531
532 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
533
534 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
535 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
536 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
537 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
538 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
539 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
540 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
541 allowed to specify.
542
543 The other theory is that because you can say something like
544 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
545 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
546 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
547 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
548
549 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
550
551 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
552
553 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
554 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
555 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
556 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
557
558 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
559 KPOP server.
560
561 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
562
563 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
564
565 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
566
567 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
568 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
569 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
570
571 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
572 mhn.defaults.sh.
573
574 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
575
576 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
577 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
578 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
579 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
580 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
581 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
582
583 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
584 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
585
586 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
587
588 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
589 page.
590
591 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
592
593 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
594 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
595 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
596 to be setgid.
597
598 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
599 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
600 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
601 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
602 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
603 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
604 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
605 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
606 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
607 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
608 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
609 processing that post has).
610
611 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
612
613 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
614 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
615 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
616 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
617 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
618 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
619 Solaris 2.6).
620
621 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
622
623 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
624
625 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
626
627 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
628
629 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
630 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
631
632 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
633 command-line.
634
635 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
636
637 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
638 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
639 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
640 some development.
641
642 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
643
644 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
645 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
646 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
647 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
648 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
649 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
650
651 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
652
653 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
654
655 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
656
657 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
658 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
659 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
660 caught again. This works for now.
661
662 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
663
664 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
665
666 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
667 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
668
669 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
670
671 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
672 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
673
674 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
675
676 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
677
678 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
679
680 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
681 changes. Both need more cleanup.
682
683 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
684
685 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
686 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
687 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
688 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
689 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
690 multiple purposes.
691
692 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
693
694 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
695 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
696 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
697
698 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
699 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
700 config.guess.
701
702 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
703
704 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
705 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
706 to a directory on another device with more free space.
707
708 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
709
710 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
711 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
712
713 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
714
715 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
716 distributed.
717
718 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
719 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
720
721 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
722 macros, regardless of platform.
723
724 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
725 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
726
727 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
728 with x-conversions=gzip.
729
730 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
731
732 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
733 post.c.
734
735 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
736 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
737 implicit definition of ioctl().
738
739 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
740 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
741 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
742 want to mess with them.
743
744 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
745
746 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
747 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
748
749 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
750 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
751
752 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
753 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
754 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
755
756 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
757 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
758 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
759
760 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
761 function initgroups.
762
763 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
764 function.
765
766 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
767 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
768 to fix warnings.
769
770 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
771 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
772 prevent warnings.
773
774 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
775 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
776 statements).
777
778
779 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
780
781 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
782 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
783 preventing compilation on at least linux.
784
785 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
786 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
787
788 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
789
790 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
791
792 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
793 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
794 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
795 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
796
797 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
798 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
799
800 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
801
802 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
803
804 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
805
806 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
807 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
808
809 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
810
811 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
812 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
813
814 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
815 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
816 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
817 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
818
819 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
820 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
821
822 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
823
824 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
825 substitute it for mktemp if available.
826
827 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
828
829 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
830 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
831 proper #defines.
832
833 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
834
835 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
836
837 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
838
839 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
840 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
841
842 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
843 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
844 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
845
846 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
847 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
848 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
849
850 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
851 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
852 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
853
854 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
855 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
856 <swb@nconnect.net>.
857
858 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
859 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
860
861 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
862 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
863
864 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
865 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
866
867 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
868 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
869 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
870
871 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
872 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
873
874 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
875 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
876 <elleron@servtech.com>.
877
878 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
879 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
880 <rmg@netapp.com>.
881
882 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
883 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
884
885 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
886 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
887 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
888 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
889
890 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
891 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
892
893 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
894
895 * Released nmh-1.0.
896
897 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
898 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
899 would not be changed.
900
901 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
902 one from the Apache web server.
903
904 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
905 (this should have been done a long time ago).
906
907 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
908 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
909 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
910
911 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
912
913 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
914
915 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
916 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
917 verbose printing).
918
919 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
920 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
921 removes a bad race condition.
922
923 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
924 style drop file.
925
926 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
927 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
928 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
929
930 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
931 sequence information.
932
933 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
934 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
935
936 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
937 count.
938
939 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
940 is empty.
941
942 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
943
944 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
945 interpret 034 as octal.
946
947 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
948
949 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
950 mhstore, and mhbuild.
951
952 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
953 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
954
955 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
956 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
957
958 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
959 in the c_cefile structure when building.
960
961 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
962 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
963
964 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
965 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
966 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
967
968 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
969 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
970 and mhshow. Updated man pages
971
972 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
973
974 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
975
976 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
977 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
978 file "mhoutsbr.c".
979
980 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
981
982 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
983 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
984
985 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
986 header field information.
987
988 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
989 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
990
991 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
992 values when parsing a content.
993
994 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
995 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
996
997 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
998 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
999
1000 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1001 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1002
1003 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1004 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1005
1006 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1007
1008 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1009
1010 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1011
1012 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1013
1014 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1015 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1016 read.
1017
1018 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1019 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1020
1021 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1022 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1023 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1024 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1025 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1026 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1027 be setuid/setgid.
1028
1029 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1030
1031 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1032 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1033 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1034
1035 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1036 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1037
1038 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1039
1040 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1041 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1042 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1043 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1044
1045 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1046 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1047 fix).
1048
1049 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1050 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1051 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1052 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1053 arguments.
1054
1055 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1056
1057 * Released nmh-0.27.
1058
1059 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1060 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1061
1062 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1063 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1064 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1065 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1066 with no arguments.
1067
1068 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1069 mhbuild returns an error.
1070
1071 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1072 rename the draft file.
1073
1074 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1075 use a global variable.
1076
1077 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1078 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1079
1080 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1081 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1082
1083 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1084 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1085 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1086
1087 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1088 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1089
1090 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1091 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1092 this new page.
1093
1094 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1095 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1096 viamail program.
1097
1098 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1099 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1100
1101 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1102 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1103 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1104
1105 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1106 to new function output_content_folder.
1107
1108 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1109 new function output_content_file.
1110
1111 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1112 to new function parse_format_string.
1113
1114 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1115 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1116 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1117 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1118
1119 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1120 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1121 message/external file from ftp.
1122
1123 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1124 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1125 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1126
1127 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1128 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1129 mhfree.c.
1130
1131 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1132 file mhshowsbr.c.
1133
1134 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1135 new file mhstoresbr.c
1136
1137 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1138 file mhparse.c.
1139
1140 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1141 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1142
1143 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1144 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1145
1146 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1147 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1148 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1149
1150 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1151
1152 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1153
1154 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1155 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1156 to main().
1157
1158 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1159 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1160
1161 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1162 to mhparse.c).
1163
1164 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1165
1166 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1167
1168 * Released nmh-0.26.
1169
1170 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1171 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1172 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1173 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1174
1175 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1176 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1177 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1178 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1179 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1180
1181 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1182 But it is not on by default.
1183
1184 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1185 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1186
1187 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1188
1189 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1190
1191 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1192
1193 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1194
1195 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1196 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1197
1198 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1199
1200 * Released nmh-0.25.
1201
1202 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1203 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1204 uses the original name of the library.
1205
1206 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1207 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1208 links remaining.
1209
1210 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1211 list_content and list_debug.
1212
1213 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1214
1215 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1216 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1217
1218 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1219
1220 * Released nmh-0.24.
1221
1222 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1223
1224 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1225 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1226
1227 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1228 large sequence line.
1229
1230 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1231
1232 * Released nmh-0.23.
1233
1234 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1235
1236 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1237 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1238 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1239 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1240
1241 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1242 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1243 file h/mhnsbr.h.
1244
1245 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1246
1247 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1248
1249 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1250
1251 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1252 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1253
1254 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1255 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1256
1257 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1258 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1259
1260 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1261 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1262
1263 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1264
1265 * Released nmh-0.22.
1266
1267 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1268 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1269
1270 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1271
1272 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1273 mh-profile(5) man page.
1274
1275 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1276 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1277
1278 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1279
1280 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1281
1282 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1283 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1284
1285 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1286
1287 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1288 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1289 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1290
1291 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1292 source message on the standard input.
1293
1294 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1295
1296 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1297 rather than -rfc934mode.
1298
1299 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1300 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1301 only one message.
1302
1303 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1304 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1305
1306 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1307 it is still needed.
1308
1309 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1310
1311 * Released nmh-0.21.
1312
1313 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1314 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1315
1316 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1317 encoding to use.
1318
1319 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1320 to use for text contents.
1321
1322 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1323
1324 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1325
1326 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1327
1328 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1329
1330 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1331 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1332
1333 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1334 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1335 spaces between encoded word are.
1336
1337 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1338
1339 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1340 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1341
1342 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1343 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1344 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1345
1346 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1347
1348 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1349 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1350
1351 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1352
1353 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1354
1355 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1356 ISO-8859-X character set.
1357
1358 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1359 pager more.
1360
1361 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1362 permissions, not write permissions.
1363
1364 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1365 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1366
1367 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1368 distribution.
1369
1370 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1371
1372 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1373
1374 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1375 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1376
1377 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1378 message contains valid character set.
1379
1380 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1381 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1382
1383 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1384 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1385
1386 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1387 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1388 between an encoded word and normal text.
1389
1390 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1391 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1392
1393 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1394 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1395
1396 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1397 and -help.
1398
1399 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1400 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1401 loops).
1402
1403 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1404 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1405
1406 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1407 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1408
1409 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1410
1411 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1412
1413 * Released nmh-0.20.
1414
1415 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1416
1417 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1418
1419 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1420 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1421 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1422
1423 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1424 and the To: line was missing.
1425
1426 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1427
1428 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1429
1430 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1431
1432 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1433 watch the POP transaction.
1434
1435 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1436 first, and use it if available.
1437
1438 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1439 first, and use it if available.
1440
1441 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1442
1443 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1444
1445 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1446 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1447 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1448 sequence line.
1449
1450 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1451 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1452 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1453
1454 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1455 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1456 lines.
1457
1458 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1459
1460 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1461 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1462
1463 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1464
1465 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1466 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1467
1468 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1469 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1470 message to which you are replying.
1471
1472 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1473 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1474 making group replies.
1475
1476 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1477
1478 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1479
1480 * Released nmh-0.19.
1481
1482 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1483 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1484
1485 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1486 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1487 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1488 to the end of the man page.
1489
1490 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1491 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1492 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1493 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1494 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1495 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1496
1497 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1498 pages.
1499
1500 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1501 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1502 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1503
1504 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1505 the next available number above the message number you wish
1506 to preserve.
1507
1508 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1509 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1510
1511 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1512 file sbr/seq_print.c
1513
1514 * flist will now update the current folder.
1515
1516 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1517 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1518 but now undocumented.
1519
1520 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1521 traversing folders.
1522
1523 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1524 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1525
1526 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1527
1528 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1529 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1530
1531 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1532
1533 * Released nmh-0.18.
1534
1535 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1536 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1537 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1538
1539 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1540 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1541
1542 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1543 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1544 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1545 previous public/private status.
1546
1547 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1548 correctly.
1549
1550 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1551 private sequences).
1552
1553 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1554 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1555 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1556
1557 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1558 take option to determine whether it should get current
1559 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1560 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1561
1562 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1563
1564 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1565 wait for stopped processes.
1566
1567 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1568 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1569
1570 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1571
1572 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1573
1574 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1575 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1576
1577 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1578 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1579
1580 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1581 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1582 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1583 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1584
1585 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1586 status allocation).
1587
1588 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1589 the code.
1590
1591 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1592
1593 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1594 the debugging output.
1595
1596 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1597 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1598
1599 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1600
1601 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1602
1603 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1604 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1605
1606 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1607
1608 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1609 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1610 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1611 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1612 in the given sequence.
1613
1614 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1615 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1616 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1617 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1618 subdirectories of a given directory.
1619
1620 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1621 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1622 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1623
1624 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1625 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1626
1627 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1628
1629 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1630 to 0700 (was 0711).
1631
1632 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1633 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1634 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1635
1636 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1637 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1638 are calculated at runtime.
1639
1640 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1641
1642 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1643
1644 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1645 about checking for global mh.profile.
1646
1647 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1648 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1649 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1650 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1651 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1652 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1653
1654 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1655 adding message to folder itself.
1656
1657 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1658 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1659 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1660 instead of exiting.
1661
1662 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1663 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1664 the error EEXIST.
1665
1666 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1667 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1668 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1669
1670 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1671 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1672
1673 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1674 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1675 code to use it yet).
1676
1677 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1678
1679 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1680
1681 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1682 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1683
1684 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1685 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1686
1687 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1688
1689 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1690 to folder_addmsg.c
1691
1692 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1693
1694 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1695
1696 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1697
1698 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1699
1700 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1701 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1702
1703 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1704
1705 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1706
1707 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1708
1709 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1710
1711 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1712
1713 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1714 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1715
1716 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1717 configuration files.
1718
1719 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1720
1721 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1722
1723 * Released nmh-0.17.
1724
1725 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1726
1727 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1728 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1729
1730 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1731 defined.
1732
1733 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1734 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1735
1736 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1737 number of refiled message.
1738
1739 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1740
1741 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1742 for return value of wait().
1743
1744 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1745
1746 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1747
1748 * Released nmh-0.16.
1749
1750 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1751
1752 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1753
1754 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1755 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1756 deal with binary messages, yet).
1757
1758 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1759
1760 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1761
1762 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1763 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1764 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1765 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1766 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1767 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1768
1769 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1770 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1771
1772 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1773 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1774
1775 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1776 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1777 MH-6.8.4 patch).
1778
1779 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1780
1781 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1782
1783 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1784 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1785 composition files.
1786
1787 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1788 files.
1789
1790 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1791
1792 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1793 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1794 which used unsigned chars by default.
1795
1796 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1797
1798 * Released nmh-0.15.
1799
1800 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1801 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
1802
1803 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1804
1805 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1806
1807 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1808 return 0.
1809
1810 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1811 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1812 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1813
1814 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1815 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1816
1817 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1818
1819 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1820 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1821
1822 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1823 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1824 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1825 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1826
1827 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1828 and put in own subroutine.
1829
1830 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1831 and put in own subroutine.
1832
1833 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1834 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1835 refile.c to use new routine.
1836
1837 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1838
1839 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1840
1841 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1842 seq_getnum.
1843
1844 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1845 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1846 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1847
1848 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1849 no longer used.
1850
1851 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1852 adding message to sequence.
1853
1854 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1855 corresponding file in sbr.
1856
1857 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1858 file in sbr.
1859
1860 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1861
1862 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1863 all selected messages from a sequence.
1864
1865 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1866 selected messages to a sequence.
1867
1868 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1869 and m_seqok.c.
1870
1871 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1872
1873 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1874 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1875
1876 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1877
1878 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
1879 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
1880
1881 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1882
1883 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
1884 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
1885
1886 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1887
1888 * Released nmh-0.14.
1889
1890 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
1891 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1892
1893 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1894
1895 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1896 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1897 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1898 environment variable.
1899
1900 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1901 draft folder facility in nmh.
1902
1903 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
1904 to fmt_compile.h.
1905
1906 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
1907 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
1908 fmt_addr.c.
1909
1910 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1911 options.
1912
1913 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1914
1915 * Released nmh-0.13.
1916
1917 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1918 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1919 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1920 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1921 to MAXARGS).
1922
1923 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1924 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1925
1926 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1927
1928 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1929 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1930
1931 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1932
1933 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1934 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
1935
1936 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1937
1938 * Released nmh-0.12.
1939
1940 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
1941
1942 * Released nmh-0.11.
1943
1944 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1945
1946 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1947 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1948
1949 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1950 mp->attrstats with macros.
1951
1952 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1953 in msh.c instead.
1954
1955 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1956 to hide dd->dd_fd.
1957
1958 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1959 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1960
1961 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1962 will suppress the display of the message header.
1963
1964 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1965
1966 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1967 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1968
1969 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1970
1971 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1972
1973 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1974
1975 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1976 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1977
1978 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1979 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1980
1981 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1982
1983 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1984
1985 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1986 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1987
1988 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1989 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
1990
1991 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1992
1993 * Released nmh-0.10.
1994
1995 Sun Mar 30 21:46:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1996
1997 * Add configure check for <locale.h>. Turn on LOCALE support
1998 by default.
1999

2040
2041 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2042
2043 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2044 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2045
2046 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2047
2048 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2049 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2050
2051 * Released nmh-0.08.
2052
2053 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2054 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2055 locking database itself.
2056
2057 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2058
2059 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2060
2061 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2062 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2063 option.
2064
2065 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2066 rather than mmdf format.
2067
2068 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2069 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2070 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2071 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2072
2073 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2074
2075 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2078 added to packf.
2079
2080 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2081 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2082 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2083
2084 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2085 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2086 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2087
2088 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2089
2090 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2091 can still easily change this in config.h).
2092
2093 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2094 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2095 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2096
2097 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2098
2099 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2114 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2115
2116 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2117 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2118 on SCO 5.x.
2119
2120 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2121 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2122
2123 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2124 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.

2126 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2127
2128 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.

2133
2134 * Released nmh-0.06.
2135
2136 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2137 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2138
2139 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2140 many such machines around anymore.
2141

2151 pre-generated version if necessary.
2152
2153 * Released nmh-0.05.
2154
2155 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2156 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2157 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2158 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2159
2160 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2161 be linked in one pass.
2162
2163 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2164
2165 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2166 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2167

2172 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2173
2174 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2175 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2176 become the current folder.
2177
2178 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2186
2187 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2188 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2189 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2190
2191 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2192
2193 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2194 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2195
2196 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2197
2198 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2199 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2200 using POP.
2201
2202 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2203 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2204
2205 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2206
2207 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2208 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2209 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2210 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2211 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2212 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2213
2214 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2215
2216 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2217 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2218
2219 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2220 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2221
2222 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2223
2224 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2225 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2226
2227 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2228
2229 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2230 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2231 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2232
2233 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2234
2235 * Released nmh-0.03.
2236
2237 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2238 .mh_sequence file existed.
2239
2240 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2241 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2242
2243 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2244 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2245 man page.
2246
2247 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2248
2249 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2250 flist man page.
2251
2252 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2253
2254 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2255 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2256 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2257
2258 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2259
2260 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2261 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2262 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2263
2264 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2265
2266 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2267 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2268
2269 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2270
2271 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2272
2273 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2274 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2275 directory from where the source code is located.
2276
2277 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2296
2297 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2298
2299 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2300 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2301 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2302 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2303 rather than in script.
2304
2305 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2306
2307 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2308
2309 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2310 macro defined on Solaris.
2311
2312 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2313
2314 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2315 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2316
2317 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2318 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2319 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2320 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2321 options if enabled.
2322
2323 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2324
2325 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2326 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2327
2328 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2329 correctly found.
2330
2331 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2332
2333 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2334
2335 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2336 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2337
2338 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2339
2340 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2341 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2342
2343 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2344
2345 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2346 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2347 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2348 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2349 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2350 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2351
2352 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2353
2354 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2355
2356 * Released nmh-0.01.
2357
2358 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2359 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2360 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2361 have POSIX signals.
2362
2363 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2364

2367
2368 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2369
2370 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2371 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2372
2373 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2374
2375 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2376 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2377 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2378 script to find_program.
2379
2380 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2381
2382 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2383 speed up -recurse option.
2384
2385 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2386 yet, but it compiles :-)
2387
2388 * Changed default location for install to
2389 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2390 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2391 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2392 level Makefile.
2393
2394 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2395 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2396 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
