Changed my mind again on scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD. Put the replied /
[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2
3 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
4 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
5 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
6 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
7 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
8 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
9 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
10 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
11 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
12
13 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
14
15 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
16 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
17 able to access them.
18
19 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
20
21 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
22 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
23
24 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
25
26 * Fixed install in etc/Makefile.in so it wouldn't fail when
27 configuring and building outside the source tree.
28
29 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
30
31 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
32 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
33 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
34 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
35 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
36
37 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
38 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
39
40 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
41
42 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
43
44 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
45 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
46 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
47 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
48
49 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
50 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
51 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
52 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
53
54 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
55 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
56 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
57 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
58
59 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
60 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
61 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
62
63 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
64
65 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
66 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
67 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
68 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
69 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
70 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
71 my users.
72
73 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
74 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
75
76 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
77 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
78
79 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
80
81 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
82
83 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
84
85 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
86 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
87 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
88 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
89
90 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
91
92 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
93 be easily changed from "," to "#".
94
95 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
96
97 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
98
99 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
100 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
101 README.developers.
102
103 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
104
105 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
106 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
107 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
108 but not for the subsequent data stream.
109
110 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
111
112 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
113 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
114 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
115 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
116 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
117
118 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
119
120 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
121 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
122
123 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
124 cat, also define lorder as echo.
125
126 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
127
128 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
129
130 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
131 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
132 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
133
134 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
135
136 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
137 #if 0 block).
138
139 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
140 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
141
142 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
143
144 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
145 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
146
147 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
148
149 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
150 inc does not need to be setgid.
151
152 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
153
154 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
155 library, as found on Debian systems.
156
157 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
158
159 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
160
161 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
162 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
163 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
164 case-insensitivity flag.
165
166 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
167
168 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
169 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
170
171 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
172
173 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
174 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
175 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
176 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
177 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
178 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
179 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
180 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
181 getting moved aside).
182
183 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
184 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
185
186 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
187
188 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
189 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
190 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
191 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
192 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
193 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
194 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
195 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
196 the prototype, but never sets it.
197
198 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
199 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
200 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
201 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
202 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
203 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
204
205 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
206 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
207 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
208 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
209 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
210
211 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
212
213 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
214 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
215 of tws.h.
216
217 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
218 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
219 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
220 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
221 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
222 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
223 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
224
225 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
226
227 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
228
229 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
230 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
231 this works on other systems.
232
233 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
234
235 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
236 checks for write failures.
237
238 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
239
240 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
241
242 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
243 is patched in.
244
245 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
246
247 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
248
249 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
250
251 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
252 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
253 a buffer boundary.
254
255 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
256
257 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
258 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
259 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
260 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
261
262 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
263
264 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
265 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
266 place.
267
268 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
269 as well as Makefiles.
270
271 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
272
273 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
274 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
275 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
276 should make maintainability easier.
277
278 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
279 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
280 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
281 whatever you know works.
282
283 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
284
285 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
286 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
287 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
288
289 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
290 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
291 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
292 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
293
294 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
295 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
296 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
297
298 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
299 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
300 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
301 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
302 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
303
304 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
305 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
306 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
307 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
308 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
309 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
310 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
311 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
312 from the BSD version.
313
314 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
315 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
316 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
317
318 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
319 in ruserpass.c also.
320
321 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
322 report:
323
324 This happens on solaris:
325
326 % man mts.conf
327 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
328 No manual entry for mts.conf.
329
330 It is fixed by
331
332 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
333
334 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
335 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
336
337 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
338
339 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
340 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
341 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
342 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
343 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
344 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
345 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
346 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
347 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
348 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
349 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
350
351 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
352 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
353 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
354 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
355 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
356 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
357 out of nowhere.
358
359 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
360 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
361 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
362 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
363 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
364
365 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
366 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
367
368 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
369
370 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
371 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
372 to stdin, such as exmh.
373
374 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
375 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
376 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
377 other files.
378
379 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
380
381 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
382 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
383 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
384 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
385 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
386 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
387 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
388
389 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
390
391 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
392 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
393
394 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
395
396 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
397 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
398
399 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
400
401 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
402 --enable-apop.
403
404 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
405 along with any -host or -user option.
406
407 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
408
409 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
410
411 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
412 process was fresh in my mind.
413
414 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
415
416 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
417 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
418
419 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
420
421 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
422
423 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
424 patch:
425
426 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
427 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
428 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
429 part of the program's name.
430
431 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
432 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
433 to quote.
434
435 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
436
437 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
438 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
439 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
440 single-character format would cause programs using this
441 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
442 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
443 when the format string was one character. This eventually
444 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
445 in the array.
446
447 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
448
449 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
450 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
451 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
452 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
453 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
454 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
455
456 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
457 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
458 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
459 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
460 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
461 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
462 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
463 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
464
465 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
466 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
467 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
468 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
469 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
470 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
471 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
472 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
473 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
474 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
475
476 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
477
478 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
479 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
480
481 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
482 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
483
484 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
485 exit 2
486
487 and:
488
489 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
490
491 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
492 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
493 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
494 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
495
496 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
497 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
498 problem in the routine.
499
500 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
501
502 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
503 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
504
505 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
506 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
507 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
508 spool somehow.
509
510 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
511
512 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
513 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
514 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
515 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
516 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
517 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
518 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
519 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
520 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
521 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
522
523 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
524
525 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
526 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
527 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
528 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
529 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
530 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
531 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
532 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
533 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
534 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
535 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
536 interesting than a duplication of the default.
537
538 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
539 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
540 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
541 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
542 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
543
544 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
545 POP is enabled.
546
547 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
548
549 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
550 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
551 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
552 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
553 here.
554
555 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
556
557 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
558
559 * Applied, after some finessing,
560 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
561
562 Here's a patch that allows you to add
563
564 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
565
566 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
567 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
568 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
569 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
570
571 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
572
573 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
574 forgetting to do so!).
575
576 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
577 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
578 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
579 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
580 arguments to enable all three types.
581
582 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
583 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
584
585 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
586 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
587 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
588 updated copy of mts.conf.
589
590 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
591
592 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
593 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
594 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
595
596 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
597 and
598 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
599
600 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
601 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
602 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
603
604 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
605 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
606 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
607
608 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
609 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
610 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
611
612 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
613
614 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
615
616 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
617
618 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
619
620 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
621 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
622
623 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
624 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
625 certain suffix to run properly.
626
627 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
628 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
629 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
630
631 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
632 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
633 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
634 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
635 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
636 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
637 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
638
639 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
640
641 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
642 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
643 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
644 until some year far in the future).
645
646 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
647
648 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
649
650 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
651 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
652
653 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
654 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
655 corrupted.
656
657 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
658
659 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
660 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
661 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
662 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
663 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
664 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
665
666 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
667
668 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
669
670 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
671 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
672 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
673
674 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
675 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
676 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
677 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
678 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
679 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
680 leads me to:
681
682 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
683 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
684 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
685 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
686 of masquerading individually.
687
688 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
689 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
690 GECOS field delimiters.
691
692 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
693
694 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
695 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
696 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
697 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
698 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
699 and explaining the feature.
700
701 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
702
703 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
704 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
705 so).
706
707 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
708 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
709 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
710
711 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
712 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
713 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
714 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
715
716 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
717 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
718 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
719 anywhere.
720
721 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
722
723 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
724 code to be executed.
725
726 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
727
728 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
729
730 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
731 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
732 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
733 quotes embedded in them.
734
735 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
736
737 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
738 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
739 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
740 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
741 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
742 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
743 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
744 allowed to specify.
745
746 The other theory is that because you can say something like
747 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
748 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
749 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
750 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
751
752 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
753
754 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
755
756 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
757 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
758 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
759 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
760
761 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
762 KPOP server.
763
764 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
765
766 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
767
768 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
769
770 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
771 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
772 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
773
774 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
775 mhn.defaults.sh.
776
777 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
778
779 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
780 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
781 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
782 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
783 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
784 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
785
786 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
787 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
788
789 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
790
791 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
792 page.
793
794 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
795
796 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
797 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
798 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
799 to be setgid.
800
801 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
802 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
803 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
804 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
805 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
806 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
807 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
808 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
809 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
810 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
811 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
812 processing that post has).
813
814 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
815
816 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
817 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
818 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
819 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
820 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
821 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
822 Solaris 2.6).
823
824 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
825
826 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
827
828 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
829
830 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
831
832 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
833 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
834
835 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
836 command-line.
837
838 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
839
840 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
841 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
842 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
843 some development.
844
845 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
846
847 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
848 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
849 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
850 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
851 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
852 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
853
854 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
855
856 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
857
858 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
859
860 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
861 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
862 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
863 caught again. This works for now.
864
865 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
866
867 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
868
869 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
870 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
871
872 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
873
874 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
875 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
876
877 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
878
879 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
880
881 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
882
883 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
884 changes. Both need more cleanup.
885
886 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
887
888 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
889 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
890 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
891 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
892 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
893 multiple purposes.
894
895 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
896
897 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
898 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
899 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
900
901 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
902 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
903 config.guess.
904
905 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
906
907 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
908 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
909 to a directory on another device with more free space.
910
911 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
912
913 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
914 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
915
916 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
917
918 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
919 distributed.
920
921 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
922 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
923
924 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
925 macros, regardless of platform.
926
927 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
928 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
929
930 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
931 with x-conversions=gzip.
932
933 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
934
935 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
936 post.c.
937
938 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
939 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
940 implicit definition of ioctl().
941
942 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
943 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
944 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
945 want to mess with them.
946
947 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
948
949 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
950 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
951
952 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
953 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
954
955 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
956 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
957 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
958
959 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
960 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
961 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
962
963 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
964 function initgroups.
965
966 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
967 function.
968
969 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
970 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
971 to fix warnings.
972
973 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
974 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
975 prevent warnings.
976
977 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
978 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
979 statements).
980
981
982 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
983
984 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
985 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
986 preventing compilation on at least linux.
987
988 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
989 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
990
991 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
992
993 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
994
995 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
996 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
997 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
998 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
999
1000 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1001 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1002
1003 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1004
1005 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1006
1007 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1008
1009 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1010 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1011
1012 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1013
1014 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1015 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1016
1017 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1018 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1019 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1020 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1021
1022 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1023 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1024
1025 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1026
1027 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1028 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1029
1030 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1031
1032 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1033 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1034 proper #defines.
1035
1036 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1037
1038 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1039
1040 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1041
1042 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1043 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1044
1045 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1046 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1047 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1048
1049 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1050 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1051 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1052
1053 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1054 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1055 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1056
1057 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1058 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1059 <swb@nconnect.net>.
1060
1061 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1062 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1063
1064 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1065 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1066
1067 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1068 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1069
1070 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1071 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1072 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1073
1074 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1075 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1076
1077 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1078 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1079 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1080
1081 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1082 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1083 <rmg@netapp.com>.
1084
1085 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1086 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1087
1088 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1089 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1090 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1091 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1092
1093 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1094 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1095
1096 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1097
1098 * Released nmh-1.0.
1099
1100 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1101 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1102 would not be changed.
1103
1104 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1105 one from the Apache web server.
1106
1107 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1108 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1109
1110 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1111 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1112 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1113
1114 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1115
1116 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1117
1118 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1119 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1120 verbose printing).
1121
1122 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1123 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1124 removes a bad race condition.
1125
1126 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1127 style drop file.
1128
1129 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1130 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1131 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1132
1133 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1134 sequence information.
1135
1136 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1137 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1138
1139 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1140 count.
1141
1142 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1143 is empty.
1144
1145 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1146
1147 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1148 interpret 034 as octal.
1149
1150 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1151
1152 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1153 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1154
1155 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1156 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1157
1158 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1159 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1160
1161 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1162 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1163
1164 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1165 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1166
1167 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1168 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1169 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1170
1171 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1172 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1173 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1174
1175 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1176
1177 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1178
1179 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1180 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1181 file "mhoutsbr.c".
1182
1183 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1184
1185 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1186 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1187
1188 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1189 header field information.
1190
1191 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1192 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1193
1194 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1195 values when parsing a content.
1196
1197 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1198 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1199
1200 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1201 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1202
1203 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1204 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1205
1206 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1207 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1208
1209 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1210
1211 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1212
1213 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1214
1215 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1216
1217 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1218 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1219 read.
1220
1221 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1222 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1223
1224 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1225 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1226 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1227 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1228 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1229 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1230 be setuid/setgid.
1231
1232 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1233
1234 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1235 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1236 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1237
1238 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1239 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1240
1241 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1242
1243 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1244 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1245 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1246 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1247
1248 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1249 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1250 fix).
1251
1252 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1253 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1254 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1255 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1256 arguments.
1257
1258 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1259
1260 * Released nmh-0.27.
1261
1262 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1263 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1264
1265 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1266 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1267 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1268 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1269 with no arguments.
1270
1271 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1272 mhbuild returns an error.
1273
1274 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1275 rename the draft file.
1276
1277 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1278 use a global variable.
1279
1280 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1281 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1282
1283 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1284 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1285
1286 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1287 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1288 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1289
1290 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1291 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1292
1293 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1294 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1295 this new page.
1296
1297 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1298 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1299 viamail program.
1300
1301 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1302 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1303
1304 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1305 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1306 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1307
1308 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1309 to new function output_content_folder.
1310
1311 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1312 new function output_content_file.
1313
1314 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1315 to new function parse_format_string.
1316
1317 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1318 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1319 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1320 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1321
1322 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1323 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1324 message/external file from ftp.
1325
1326 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1327 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1328 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1329
1330 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1331 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1332 mhfree.c.
1333
1334 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1335 file mhshowsbr.c.
1336
1337 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1338 new file mhstoresbr.c
1339
1340 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1341 file mhparse.c.
1342
1343 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1344 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1345
1346 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1347 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1348
1349 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1350 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1351 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1352
1353 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1354
1355 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1356
1357 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1358 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1359 to main().
1360
1361 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1362 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1363
1364 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1365 to mhparse.c).
1366
1367 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1368
1369 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1370
1371 * Released nmh-0.26.
1372
1373 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1374 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1375 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1376 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1377
1378 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1379 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1380 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1381 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1382 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1383
1384 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1385 But it is not on by default.
1386
1387 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1388 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1389
1390 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1391
1392 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1393
1394 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1395
1396 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1397
1398 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1399 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1400
1401 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1402
1403 * Released nmh-0.25.
1404
1405 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1406 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1407 uses the original name of the library.
1408
1409 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1410 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1411 links remaining.
1412
1413 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1414 list_content and list_debug.
1415
1416 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1417
1418 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1419 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1420
1421 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1422
1423 * Released nmh-0.24.
1424
1425 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1426
1427 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1428 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1429
1430 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1431 large sequence line.
1432
1433 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1434
1435 * Released nmh-0.23.
1436
1437 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1438
1439 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1440 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1441 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1442 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1443
1444 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1445 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1446 file h/mhnsbr.h.
1447
1448 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1449
1450 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1451
1452 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1453
1454 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1455 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1456
1457 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1458 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1459
1460 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1461 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1462
1463 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1464 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1465
1466 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1467
1468 * Released nmh-0.22.
1469
1470 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1471 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1472
1473 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1474
1475 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1476 mh-profile(5) man page.
1477
1478 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1479 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1480
1481 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1482
1483 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1484
1485 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1486 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1487
1488 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1489
1490 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1491 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1492 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1493
1494 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1495 source message on the standard input.
1496
1497 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1498
1499 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1500 rather than -rfc934mode.
1501
1502 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1503 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1504 only one message.
1505
1506 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1507 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1508
1509 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1510 it is still needed.
1511
1512 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1513
1514 * Released nmh-0.21.
1515
1516 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1517 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1518
1519 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1520 encoding to use.
1521
1522 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1523 to use for text contents.
1524
1525 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1526
1527 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1528
1529 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1530
1531 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1532
1533 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1534 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1535
1536 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1537 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1538 spaces between encoded word are.
1539
1540 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1541
1542 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1543 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1544
1545 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1546 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1547 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1548
1549 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1550
1551 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1552 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1553
1554 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1555
1556 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1557
1558 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1559 ISO-8859-X character set.
1560
1561 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1562 pager more.
1563
1564 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1565 permissions, not write permissions.
1566
1567 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1568 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1569
1570 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1571 distribution.
1572
1573 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1574
1575 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1576
1577 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1578 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1579
1580 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1581 message contains valid character set.
1582
1583 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1584 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1585
1586 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1587 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1588
1589 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1590 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1591 between an encoded word and normal text.
1592
1593 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1594 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1595
1596 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1597 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1598
1599 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1600 and -help.
1601
1602 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1603 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1604 loops).
1605
1606 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1607 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1608
1609 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1610 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1611
1612 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1613
1614 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1615
1616 * Released nmh-0.20.
1617
1618 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1619
1620 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1621
1622 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1623 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1624 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1625
1626 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1627 and the To: line was missing.
1628
1629 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1630
1631 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1632
1633 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1634
1635 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1636 watch the POP transaction.
1637
1638 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1639 first, and use it if available.
1640
1641 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1642 first, and use it if available.
1643
1644 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1645
1646 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1647
1648 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1649 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1650 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1651 sequence line.
1652
1653 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1654 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1655 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1656
1657 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1658 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1659 lines.
1660
1661 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1662
1663 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1664 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1665
1666 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1667
1668 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1669 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1670
1671 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1672 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1673 message to which you are replying.
1674
1675 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1676 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1677 making group replies.
1678
1679 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1680
1681 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1682
1683 * Released nmh-0.19.
1684
1685 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1686 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1687
1688 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1689 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1690 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1691 to the end of the man page.
1692
1693 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1694 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1695 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1696 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1697 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1698 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1699
1700 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1701 pages.
1702
1703 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1704 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1705 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1706
1707 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1708 the next available number above the message number you wish
1709 to preserve.
1710
1711 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1712 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1713
1714 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1715 file sbr/seq_print.c
1716
1717 * flist will now update the current folder.
1718
1719 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1720 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1721 but now undocumented.
1722
1723 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1724 traversing folders.
1725
1726 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1727 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1728
1729 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1730
1731 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1732 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1733
1734 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1735
1736 * Released nmh-0.18.
1737
1738 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1739 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1740 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1741
1742 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1743 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1744
1745 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1746 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1747 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1748 previous public/private status.
1749
1750 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1751 correctly.
1752
1753 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1754 private sequences).
1755
1756 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1757 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1758 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1759
1760 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1761 take option to determine whether it should get current
1762 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1763 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1764
1765 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1766
1767 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1768 wait for stopped processes.
1769
1770 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1771 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1772
1773 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1774
1775 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1776
1777 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1778 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1779
1780 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1781 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1782
1783 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1784 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1785 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1786 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1787
1788 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1789 status allocation).
1790
1791 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1792 the code.
1793
1794 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1795
1796 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1797 the debugging output.
1798
1799 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1800 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1801
1802 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1803
1804 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1805
1806 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1807 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1808
1809 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1810
1811 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1812 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1813 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1814 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1815 in the given sequence.
1816
1817 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1818 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1819 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1820 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1821 subdirectories of a given directory.
1822
1823 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1824 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1825 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1826
1827 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1828 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1829
1830 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1831
1832 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1833 to 0700 (was 0711).
1834
1835 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1836 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1837 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1838
1839 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1840 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1841 are calculated at runtime.
1842
1843 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1844
1845 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1846
1847 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1848 about checking for global mh.profile.
1849
1850 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1851 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1852 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1853 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1854 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1855 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1856
1857 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1858 adding message to folder itself.
1859
1860 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1861 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1862 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1863 instead of exiting.
1864
1865 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1866 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1867 the error EEXIST.
1868
1869 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1870 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1871 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1872
1873 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1874 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1875
1876 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1877 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1878 code to use it yet).
1879
1880 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1881
1882 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1883
1884 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1885 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1886
1887 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1888 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1889
1890 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1891
1892 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1893 to folder_addmsg.c
1894
1895 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1896
1897 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1898
1899 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1900
1901 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1902
1903 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1904 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1905
1906 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1907
1908 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1909
1910 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1911
1912 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1913
1914 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1915
1916 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1917 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1918
1919 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1920 configuration files.
1921
1922 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1923
1924 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1925
1926 * Released nmh-0.17.
1927
1928 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1929
1930 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1931 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1932
1933 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1934 defined.
1935
1936 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1937 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1938
1939 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1940 number of refiled message.
1941
1942 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1943
1944 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1945 for return value of wait().
1946
1947 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1948
1949 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1950
1951 * Released nmh-0.16.
1952
1953 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1954
1955 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1956
1957 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1958 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1959 deal with binary messages, yet).
1960
1961 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1962
1963 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1964
1965 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1966 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1967 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1968 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1969 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1970 method was specified in mhn.defaults).

1983
1984 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1985

1987 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1988 composition files.
1989
1990 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1991 files.
1992
1993 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1994
1995 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1996 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1997 which used unsigned chars by default.
1998
1999 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2000
2001 * Released nmh-0.15.

2014 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2015 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2016
2017 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2018 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2019

2024
2025 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2026 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2027 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2028 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2029
2030 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2031 and put in own subroutine.
2032
2033 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2034 and put in own subroutine.

2048 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2049 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2050
2051 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2052 no longer used.
2053
2054 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2055 adding message to sequence.

2068 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2069 selected messages to a sequence.
2070

2097
2098 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2099 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2100 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC

2117
2118 * Released nmh-0.13.
2119
2120 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2121 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2122 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2123 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2124 to MAXARGS).
2125
2126 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2127 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2128
2129 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2130
2131 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if

2133
2134 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2135
2136 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2151
2152 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2153 mp->attrstats with macros.
2154
2155 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2156 in msh.c instead.
2157
2158 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2159 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2160
2161 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2162 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2163
2164 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null

2166
2167 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2168
2169 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2170 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2171

2173
2174 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.

2177
2178 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2179 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2180
2181 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2182 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2183
2184 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2185
2186 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2187

2189 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2190
2191 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2192 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2202
2203 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2204
2205 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2206 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.

2208 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2209 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2210
2211 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2212 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.

2235 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2236
2237 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2238
2239 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2240 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2241
2242 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2243
2244 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2245
2246 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2247 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2248
2249 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2250
2251 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2252 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2253
2254 * Released nmh-0.08.
2255
2256 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2257 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2258 locking database itself.
2259
2260 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2261
2262 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2263
2264 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2265 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2266 option.
2267
2268 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2269 rather than mmdf format.
2270
2271 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2272 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2273 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2274 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2275
2276 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2277
2278 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2279
2280 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2281 added to packf.
2282
2283 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2284 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2285 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2286
2287 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2288 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2289 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2290
2291 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2292
2293 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2294 can still easily change this in config.h).
2295
2296 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2297 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2298 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2299
2300 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2301
2302 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2303 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2304

2306
2307 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

2316 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2317 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2318
2319 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2320 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2321 on SCO 5.x.
2322
2323 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2324 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2325
2326 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2327 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2328
2329 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2330
2331 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2332
2333 * Added configure check for tzset.
2334
2335 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2336
2337 * Released nmh-0.06.
2338
2339 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2340 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2341
2342 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2343 many such machines around anymore.
2344
2345 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2346 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2347
2348 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2349 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2350
2351 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2353 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2354 pre-generated version if necessary.
2355
2356 * Released nmh-0.05.
2357
2358 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2359 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2360 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2361 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2362
2363 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2364 be linked in one pass.
2365
2366 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2367
2368 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2369 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2370
2371 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2372
2373 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2374
2375 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2376
2377 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2378 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2379 become the current folder.
2380
2381 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2382
2383 * Released nmh-0.04.

2389
2390 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2391 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2392 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2393
2394 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2395
2396 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2397 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2398
2399 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2400
2401 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2402 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2403 using POP.
2404
2405 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2406 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2407
2408 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2409
2410 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2411 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2412 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2413 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2414 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2415 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2416
2417 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2418
2419 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2420 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2421
2422 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2423 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2424
2425 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2426
2427 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2428 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2429
2430 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2431
2432 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2433 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2434 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2435
2436 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2437
2438 * Released nmh-0.03.
2439
2440 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2441 .mh_sequence file existed.
2442
2443 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2444 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2445
2446 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2447 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2448 man page.
2449
2450 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2451

2453 flist man page.
2454
2455 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2456
2457 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2458 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2459 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2460
2461 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2462
2463 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2464 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2465 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2466
2467 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2468
2469 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2470 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2471
2472 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2473
2474 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2475
2476 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2477 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2478 directory from where the source code is located.
2479
2480 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2481
2482 * Released nmh-0.02.
2483

2485
2486 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
2487 and rcvtty.
2488
2489 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2490
2491 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2492 and sys_nerr directly.
2493
2494 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2495
2496 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.

2500 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2501
2502 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2503 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2504 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2505 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2506 rather than in script.
2507
2508 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2509
2510 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2511
2512 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2513 macro defined on Solaris.
2514
2515 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2516
2517 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2518 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2519
2520 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2521 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2522 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2523 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2524 options if enabled.
2525
2526 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2527
2528 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2529 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2530
2531 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2532 correctly found.
2533
2534 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2535
2536 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2537
2538 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2539 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2540
2541 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2542
2543 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2544 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2545
2546 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2547
2548 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2549 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2550 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2551 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2552 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2553 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2554
2555 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2556
2557 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2558
2559 * Released nmh-0.01.
2560
2561 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2562 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2563 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2564 have POSIX signals.
2565
2566 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2567
2568 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2569 their man pages.
2570
2571 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2572
2573 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2574 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2575
2576 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2577
2578 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2579 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2580 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2581 script to find_program.
2582
2583 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2584
2585 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2586 speed up -recurse option.
2587
2588 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2589 yet, but it compiles :-)
2590
2591 * Changed default location for install to
2592 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2593 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2594 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2595 level Makefile.
2596
2597 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2598 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2599 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
