[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2
3 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
4
5 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
6
7 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
8 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
9 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
10 caught again. This works for now.
11
12 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
13
14 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
15
16 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
17 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
18
19 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
20
21 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
22 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
23
24 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
25
26 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
27
28 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
29
30 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
31 changes. Both need more cleanup.
32
33 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
34
35 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
36 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
37 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
38 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
39 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
40 multiple purposes.
41
42 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
43
44 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
45 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
46 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
47
48 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
49 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
50 config.guess.
51
52 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
53
54 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
55 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
56 to a directory on another device with more free space.
57
58 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
59
60 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
61 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
62
63 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
64
65 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
66 distributed.
67
68 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
69 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
70
71 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
72 macros, regardless of platform.
73
74 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
75 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
76
77 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
78 with x-conversions=gzip.
79
80 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
81
82 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
83 post.c.
84
85 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
86 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
87 implicit definition of ioctl().
88
89 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
90 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
91 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
92 want to mess with them.
93
94 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
95
96 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
97 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
98
99 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
100 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
101
102 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
103 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
104 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
105
106 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
107 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
108 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
109
110 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
111 function initgroups.
112
113 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
114 function.
115
116 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
117 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
118 to fix warnings.
119
120 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
121 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
122 prevent warnings.
123
124 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
125 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
126 statements).
127
128
129 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
130
131 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
132 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
133 preventing compilation on at least linux.
134
135 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
136 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
137
138 Thu Sep 9 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
139
140 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
141
142 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
143 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
144 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
145 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
146
147 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
148 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
149
150 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
151
152 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
153
154 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
155
156 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
157 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
158
159 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
160
161 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
162 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
163
164 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
165 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
166 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
167 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
168
169 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
170 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
171
172 Sat Jun 9 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
173
174 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
175 substitute it for mktemp if available.
176
177 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
178
179 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
180 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
181 proper #defines.
182
183 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
184
185 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
186
187 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
188
189 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
190 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
191
192 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
193 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
194 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
195
196 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
197 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
198 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
199
200 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
201 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
202 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
203
204 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
205 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
206 <swb@nconnect.net>.
207
208 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
209 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
210
211 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
212 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
213
214 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
215 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
216
217 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
218 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
219 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
220
221 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
222 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
223
224 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
225 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
226 <elleron@servtech.com>.
227
228 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
229 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
230 <rmg@netapp.com>.
231
232 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
233 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
234
235 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
236 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
237 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
238 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
239
240 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
241 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
242
243 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
244
245 * Released nmh-1.0.
246
247 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
248 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
249 would not be changed.
250
251 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
252 one from the Apache web server.
253
254 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
255 (this should have been done a long time ago).
256
257 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
258 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
259 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
260
261 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
262
263 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
264
265 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
266 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
267 verbose printing).
268
269 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
270 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
271 removes a bad race condition.
272
273 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
274 style drop file.
275
276 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
277 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
278 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
279
280 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
281 sequence information.
282
283 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
284 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
285
286 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
287 count.
288
289 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
290 is empty.
291
292 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
293
294 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
295 interpret 034 as octal.
296
297 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
298
299 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
300 mhstore, and mhbuild.
301
302 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
303 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
304
305 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
306 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
307
308 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
309 in the c_cefile structure when building.
310
311 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
312 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
313
314 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
315 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
316 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
317
318 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
319 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
320 and mhshow. Updated man pages
321
322 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
323
324 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
325
326 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
327 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
328 file "mhoutsbr.c".
329
330 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
331
332 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
333 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
334
335 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
336 header field information.
337
338 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
339 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
340
341 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
342 values when parsing a content.
343
344 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
345 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
346
347 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
348 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
349
350 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
351 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
352
353 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
354 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
355
356 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
357
358 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
359
360 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
361
362 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
363
364 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
365 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
366 read.
367
368 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
369 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
370
371 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
372 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
373 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
374 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
375 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
376 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
377 be setuid/setgid.
378
379 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
380
381 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
382 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
383 buffer length checks for this parameter.
384
385 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
386 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
387
388 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
389
390 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
391 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
392 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
393 of the limits on the length of command lines.
394
395 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
396 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
397 fix).
398
399 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
400 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
401 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
402 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
403 arguments.
404
405 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
406
407 * Released nmh-0.27.
408
409 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
410 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
411
412 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
413 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
414 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
415 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
416 with no arguments.
417
418 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
419 mhbuild returns an error.
420
421 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
422 rename the draft file.
423
424 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
425 use a global variable.
426
427 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
428 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
429
430 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
431 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
432
433 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
434 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
435 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
436
437 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
438 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
439
440 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
441 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
442 this new page.
443
444 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
445 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
446 viamail program.
447
448 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
449 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
450
451 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
452 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
453 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
454
455 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
456 to new function output_content_folder.
457
458 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
459 new function output_content_file.
460
461 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
462 to new function parse_format_string.
463
464 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
465 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
466 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
467 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
468
469 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
470 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
471 message/external file from ftp.
472
473 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
474 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
475 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
476
477 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
478 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
479 mhfree.c.
480
481 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
482 file mhshowsbr.c.
483
484 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
485 new file mhstoresbr.c
486
487 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
488 file mhparse.c.
489
490 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
491 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
492
493 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
494 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
495
496 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
497 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
498 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
499
500 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
501
502 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
503
504 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
505 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
506 to main().
507
508 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
509 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
510
511 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
512 to mhparse.c).
513
514 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
515
516 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
517
518 * Released nmh-0.26.
519
520 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
521 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
522 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
523 is still the same (dashstuffing).
524
525 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
526 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
527 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
528 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
529 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
530
531 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
532 But it is not on by default.
533
534 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
535 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
536
537 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
538
539 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
540
541 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
542
543 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
544
545 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
546 number of the "cur" message when packing.
547
548 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
549
550 * Released nmh-0.25.
551
552 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
553 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
554 uses the original name of the library.
555
556 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
557 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
558 links remaining.
559
560 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
561 list_content and list_debug.
562
563 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
564
565 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
566 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
567
568 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
569
570 * Released nmh-0.24.
571
572 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
573
574 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
575 are given, that order doesn't matter.
576
577 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
578 large sequence line.
579
580 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
581
582 * Released nmh-0.23.
583
584 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
585
586 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
587 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan content,
588 decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary string).
589 I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
590
591 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
592 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
593 file h/mhnsbr.h.
594
595 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
596
597 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
598
599 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
600
601 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
602 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
603
604 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
605 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
606
607 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
608 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
609
610 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
611 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
612
613 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
614
615 * Released nmh-0.22.
616
617 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
618 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
619
620 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
621
622 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
623 mh-profile(5) man page.
624
625 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
626 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
627
628 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
629
630 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
631
632 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
633 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
634
635 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
636
637 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
638 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
639 entry point for parsing MIME files.
640
641 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
642 source message on the standard input.
643
644 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
645
646 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
647 rather than -rfc934mode.
648
649 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
650 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
651 only one message.
652
653 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
654 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
655
656 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
657 it is still needed.
658
659 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
660
661 * Released nmh-0.21.
662
663 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
664 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
665
666 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
667 encoding to use.
668
669 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
670 to use for text contents.
671
672 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
673
674 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
675
676 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
677
678 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
679
680 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
681 header fields as per RFC-2047.
682
683 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
684 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
685 spaces between encoded word are.
686
687 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
688
689 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
690 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
691
692 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
693 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
694 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
695
696 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
697
698 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
699 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
700
701 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
702
703 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
704
705 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
706 ISO-8859-X character set.
707
708 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
709 pager more.
710
711 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
712 permissions, not write permissions.
713
714 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
715 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
716
717 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
718 distribution.
719
720 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
721
722 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
723
724 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
725 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
726
727 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
728 message contains valid character set.
729
730 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
731 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
732
733 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
734 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
735
736 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
737 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
738 between an encoded word and normal text.
739
740 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
741 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
742
743 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
744 as a RFC-2047 header field.
745
746 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
747 and -help.
748
749 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
750 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
751 loops).
752
753 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
754 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
755
756 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
757 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
758
759 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
760
761 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
762
763 * Released nmh-0.20.
764
765 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
766
767 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
768
769 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
770 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
771 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
772
773 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
774 and the To: line was missing.
775
776 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
777
778 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
779
780 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
781
782 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
783 watch the POP transaction.
784
785 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
786 first, and use it if available.
787
788 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
789 first, and use it if available.
790
791 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
792
793 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
794
795 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
796 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
797 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
798 sequence line.
799
800 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
801 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
802 returns the state FLDPLUS.
803
804 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
805 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
806 lines.
807
808 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
809
810 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
811 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
812
813 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
814
815 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
816 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
817
818 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
819 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
820 message to which you are replying.
821
822 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
823 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
824 making group replies.
825
826 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
827
828 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
829
830 * Released nmh-0.19.
831
832 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
833 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
834
835 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
836 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
837 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
838 to the end of the man page.
839
840 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
841 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
842 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
843 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
844 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
845 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
846
847 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
848 pages.
849
850 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
851 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
852 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
853
854 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
855 the next available number above the message number you wish
856 to preserve.
857
858 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
859 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
860
861 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
862 file sbr/seq_print.c
863
864 * flist will now update the current folder.
865
866 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
867 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
868 but now undocumented.
869
870 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
871 traversing folders.
872
873 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
874 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
875
876 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
877
878 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
879 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
880
881 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
882
883 * Released nmh-0.18.
884
885 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
886 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
887 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
888
889 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
890 retains the public/private status of sequences.
891
892 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
893 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
894 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
895 previous public/private status.
896
897 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
898 correctly.
899
900 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
901 private sequences).
902
903 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
904 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
905 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
906
907 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
908 take option to determine whether it should get current
909 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
910 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
911
912 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
913
914 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
915 wait for stopped processes.
916
917 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
918 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
919
920 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
921
922 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
923
924 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
925 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
926
927 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
928 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
929
930 * Change the way that memory for message status is
931 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
932 the folder/message structure. This required changing
933 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
934
935 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
936 status allocation).
937
938 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
939 the code.
940
941 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
942
943 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
944 the debugging output.
945
946 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
947 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
948
949 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
950
951 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
952
953 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
954 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
955
956 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
957
958 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
959 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
960 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
961 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
962 in the given sequence.
963
964 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
965 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
966 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
967 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
968 subdirectories of a given directory.
969
970 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
971 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
972 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
973
974 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
975 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
976
977 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
978
979 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
980 to 0700 (was 0711).
981
982 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
983 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
984 fields are now calculated at runtime.
985
986 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
987 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
988 are calculated at runtime.
989
990 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
991
992 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
993
994 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
995 about checking for global mh.profile.
996
997 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
998 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
999 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1000 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1001 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1002 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1003
1004 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1005 adding message to folder itself.
1006
1007 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1008 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1009 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1010 instead of exiting.
1011
1012 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1013 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1014 the error EEXIST.
1015
1016 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1017 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1018 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1019
1020 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1021 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1022
1023 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1024 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1025 code to use it yet).
1026
1027 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1028
1029 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1030
1031 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1032 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1033
1034 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1035 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1036
1037 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1038
1039 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1040 to folder_addmsg.c
1041
1042 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1043
1044 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1045
1046 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1047
1048 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1049
1050 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1051 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1052
1053 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1054
1055 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1056
1057 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1058
1059 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1060
1061 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1062
1063 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1064 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1065
1066 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1067 configuration files.
1068
1069 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1070
1071 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1072
1073 * Released nmh-0.17.
1074
1075 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1076
1077 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1078 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1079
1080 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1081 defined.
1082
1083 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1084 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1085
1086 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1087 number of refiled message.
1088
1089 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1090
1091 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1092 for return value of wait().
1093
1094 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1095

1098 * Released nmh-0.16.
1099
1100 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1101
1102 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1103
1104 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1105 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1106 deal with binary messages, yet).
1107
1108 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1109
1110 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1111
1112 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1113 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1114 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1115 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1116 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1117 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1118
1119 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1120 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1121
1122 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1123 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1124
1125 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1126 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1127 MH-6.8.4 patch).
1128
1129 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1130
1131 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1132
1133 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1134 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1135 composition files.
1136
1137 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1138 files.
1139
1140 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1141
1142 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1143 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1144 which used unsigned chars by default.
1145
1146 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1147
1148 * Released nmh-0.15.
1149
1150 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1151 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
1152
1153 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1154
1155 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1156
1157 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1158 return 0.
1159
1160 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1161 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1162 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1163
1164 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1165 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1166
1167 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1168
1169 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1170 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1171
1172 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1173 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1174 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1175 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1176
1177 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1178 and put in own subroutine.
1179
1180 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1181 and put in own subroutine.
1182
1183 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1184 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1185 refile.c to use new routine.
1186

1188
1189 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1190
1191 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1192 seq_getnum.
1193
1194 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1195 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1196 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1197
1198 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1199 no longer used.
1200
1201 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1202 adding message to sequence.
1203
1204 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1205 corresponding file in sbr.
1206
1207 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1208 file in sbr.
1209
1210 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1211
1212 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1213 all selected messages from a sequence.
1214
1215 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1216 selected messages to a sequence.
1217
1218 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1219 and m_seqok.c.

1225
1226 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1227
1228 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
1229 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
1230
1231 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1232
1233 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
1234 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
1235
1236 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1240 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
1241 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1242
1243 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1244
1245 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1246 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1247 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1248 environment variable.
1249
1250 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1251 draft folder facility in nmh.
1252
1253 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
1254 to fmt_compile.h.
1255
1256 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
1257 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
1258 fmt_addr.c.
1259
1260 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1261 options.
1262
1263 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1264
1265 * Released nmh-0.13.
1266
1267 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1268 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1269 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1270 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1271 to MAXARGS).
1272
1273 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1274 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1275
1276 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1277
1278 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1279 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1280
1281 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1282
1283 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1284 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
1285
1286 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1287
1288 * Released nmh-0.12.

1293
1294 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1295
1296 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1297 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1298
1299 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1300 mp->attrstats with macros.
1301
1302 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1303 in msh.c instead.
1304
1305 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1306 to hide dd->dd_fd.
1307
1308 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1309 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1310
1311 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1312 will suppress the display of the message header.
1313
1314 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1315
1316 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1317 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1318
1319 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1320
1321 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1322
1323 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1324
1325 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1326 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1327
1328 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1329 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1330
1331 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1332
1333 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1334
1335 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1336 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1337
1338 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1339 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

1341 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1342
1343 * Released nmh-0.10.

1348 by default.
1349
1350 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1351
1352 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1353 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1354
1355 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1356 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1357
1358 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1359 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
1360
1361 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1362
1363 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1364 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1365
1366 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1367
1368 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
1369 of missing tabs in regex.
1370

1373 * Released nmh-0.09.
1374
1375 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
1376
1377 * Add configure check for killpg.

1381
1382 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
1383
1384 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1385
1386 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
1387 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
1388
1389 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1390
1391 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
1392
1393 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
1394 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
1395
1396 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1397
1398 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1399 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1400
1401 * Released nmh-0.08.
1402
1403 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1404 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1405 locking database itself.
1406
1407 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1408
1409 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1410
1411 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1412 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1413 option.
1414
1415 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1416 rather than mmdf format.
1417
1418 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1419 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1420 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1421 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1422
1423 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1424
1425 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1426
1427 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1428 added to packf.
1429
1430 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1431 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1432 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1433
1434 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1435 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1436 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1437
1438 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1439
1440 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1441 can still easily change this in config.h).
1442
1443 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1444 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1445 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1446
1447 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1448
1449 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1450 than tzset and external timezone variable.
1451
1452 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1453
1454 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

1460
1461 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1462
1463 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
1464 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1465
1466 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1467 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1468 on SCO 5.x.
1469
1470 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1471 built-in FTP client in mhn.
1472
1473 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
1474 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
1475
1476 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
1477
1478 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
1479
1480 * Added configure check for tzset.
1481
1482 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1483
1484 * Released nmh-0.06.
1485
1486 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1487 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1488
1489 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1490 many such machines around anymore.
1491
1492 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1493 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1494
1495 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1496 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1497
1498 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1499
1500 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
1501 pre-generated version if necessary.
1502
1503 * Released nmh-0.05.
1504
1505 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1506 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1507 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1508 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1509
1510 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
1511 be linked in one pass.
1512
1513 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1514
1515 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
1516 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
1517
1518 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1519
1520 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
1521
1522 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1523
1524 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
1525 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
1526 become the current folder.
1527
1528 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1529
1530 * Released nmh-0.04.
1531

1533 it.
1534
1535 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1536
1537 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
1538 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
1539 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
1540
1541 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1542
1543 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
1544 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
1545
1546 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1547
1548 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
1549 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
1550 using POP.
1551
1552 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
1553 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
1554
1555 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1556
1557 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
1558 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
1559 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
1560 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
1561 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
1562 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
1563
1564 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1565
1566 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
1567 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
1568
1569 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
1570 a file (currently need to specify full path).
1571
1572 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1573
1574 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
1575 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
1576
1577 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1578
1579 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
1580 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
1581 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
1582
1583 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1584
1585 * Released nmh-0.03.
1586
1587 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
1588 .mh_sequence file existed.
1589
1590 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
1591 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
1592
1593 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
1594 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
1595 man page.
1596
1597 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1598
1599 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
1600 flist man page.
1601
1602 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1603
1604 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
1605 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
1606 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
1607
1608 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1609
1610 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
1611 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
1612 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
1613
1614 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1615
1616 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
1617 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
1618
1619 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
1620
1621 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1622
1623 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
1624 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
1625 directory from where the source code is located.
1626
1627 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1628

1633 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
1634 and rcvtty.
1635
1636 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1637
1638 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
1639 and sys_nerr directly.
1640
1641 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1642
1643 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.

1647 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1648
1649 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
1650 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
1651 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
1652 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
1653 rather than in script.
1654
1655 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1656
1657 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
1658
1659 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
1660 macro defined on Solaris.
1661
1662 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1663
1664 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
1665 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
1666
1667 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
1668 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
1669 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
1670 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
1671 options if enabled.
1672
1673 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1674
1675 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
1676 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
1677
1678 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
1679 correctly found.
1680
1681 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1682
1683 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
1684
1685 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
1686 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
1687
1688 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1689
1690 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
1691 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
1692
1693 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1694
1695 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
1696 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
1697 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
1698 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
1699 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
1700 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
1701
1702 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1703
1704 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
1705
1706 * Released nmh-0.01.
1707
1708 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
1709 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
1710 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
1711 have POSIX signals.
1712
1713 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1714
1715 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
1716 their man pages.
1717
1718 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1719
1720 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
1721 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
1722
1723 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1724
1725 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
1726 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
1727 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
1728 script to find_program.
1729
1730 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1731
1732 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
1733 speed up -recurse option.
1734
1735 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
1736 yet, but it compiles :-)
1737
1738 * Changed default location for install to /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}.
1739 Split files so that format and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and
1740 support binaries go in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed
1741 in the top level Makefile.
1742
1743 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
1744 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
1745 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
