Silence a (harmless) uninitialized variable warning.
[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 2010-08-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
2
3 * uip/.cvsignore: added "new".
4
5 2010-02-03 Earl Hood <earl@earlhood.com>
6
7 * Bug #15213, #18635: The use of the insecure m_scratch() and
8 m_tmpfil() functions have been replaced by m_mktemp()
9 or m_mktemp2() functions (defined in sbr/m_mktemp.c).
10 The new functions use mkstemp() to securely create
11 temporary files to avoid the numerous race conditions
12 that exist with the old functions. This does assume
13 that mkstemp() is available. Unsure if we need to
14 create an alternative implementation if mkstemp() is
15 not available. More information about new temp file
16 functions in m_mktemp.c, including the support for
17 MHTMPDIR, TMPDIR, and TMP envvars.
18
19 2010-02-02 Earl Hood <earl@earlhood.com>
20
21 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: added SASL support if mts configuration
22 setting is set to "sendmail". This is useful if sendmail
23 conf option is to a custom script that creates a proxy
24 connection to an smtp server.
25
26 * sbr/mts.c: added support for MHMTSCONF and MHMTSUSERCONF
27 envvars. The former specifies an alternative system
28 mts.conf to use. The later specifies a user-specific
29 mts.conf to use. This one will be read after the system
30 conf, so the user's conf only needs to set options they
31 want to override. The MHMTSUSERCONF allows a user to set
32 personal alternative mail submission methods w/o affecting
33 other users on the system.
34
35 * uip/whom.c: added SASL-based options so address checking
36 can work against a server that requires SASL.
37
38 2009-12-29 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
39
40 * uip/mhlistsbr.c, uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/picksbr.c: cast
41 pointers to unsigned long before casting to unsigned int
42 to avoid warnings on 64-bit about casting from pointer
43 to int of different size.
44
45 * uip/new.c: cast folder_len to int to avoid warning on
46 64-bit about passing a size_t to an int conversion specifier.
47
48 2009-12-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
49
50 * uip/inc.c: gcc 4.4.1 noticed that maildir could have been
51 used before initialization. In fact, if that code was ever
52 reached, maildir would never have been initialized. It's in
53 an adios call, so replaced with NULL.
54
55 2009-12-21 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
56
57 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: In sm_auth_sasl (), removed zeroing of
58 sasl_inbuffer because it could be used in sm_fget (). Also,
59 removed allocation of sasl_inbuffer because that was done in
60 either smtp_init () or sendmail_init ().
61
62 2009-01-17 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
63
64 * etc/mhn.defaults.sh: Never try to make mhshow start xterm.
65
66 2009-01-16 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
67
68 * test/runtest, test/tests/inc/test-deb359167,
69 test/tests/inc/test-eom-align, test/tests/manpages/test-manpages:
70 Load common.sh via absolute path, otherwise some /bin/sh
71 (e.g. dash) can't load it.
72
73 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/new.c, test/tests/new/test-basic: Add new
74 program, and fn/fp/unseen symlinks.
75
76 * test/{runtest,setup-test}: Move MH profile under Mail directory
77 so each test script will have its own to muck with, if needed.
78
79 * h/Makefile.in, h/crawl_folders.h, sbr/Makefile.in,
80 sbr/crawl_folders.c, uip/folder.c: Extract the folder crawling
81 code from folder.c into new crawl_folders function, using a
82 callback to assemble the folder info in folder.c. Drop compare
83 function and use strcmp instead. Rename addfold and addir to
84 add_folder and add_children (add dir vs. add folder?
85 confusing names).
86
87 2008-12-26 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
88
89 * sbr/m_getfld.c: fix two bugs which could cause us to walk off
90 the beginning of the stdio or prefix-string buffer when checking
91 for presence of the end-of-message delimiter in some situations.
92 This might cause inc to dump core if you were unlucky. (This was
93 Debian bug 359167.)
94 * test/tests/inc/{md5sums,msgheader.txt,test-deb359167,
95 test-eom-align,fromline.txt,filler.txt,deb359167.mbox}: new tests
96 both for the specific problem and to try to check various alignments
97 of the eom string with the stdio buffer ending.
98 * test/common.sh: new file for common utility functions for the
99 test scripts. Moved findprog out of manpage test script into this
100 new file. Added some functions for doing progress indicators.
101
102 2008-12-25 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
103
104 * test/runtest: automatically run setup-test if it hasn't already
105 been done. Improve error handling in test script with 'set -e'.
106
107 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
108
109 * h/mh.h: raised NAMESZ from 128 to 999. RFC 2822 limits line
110 lengths to 998 characters, so a header name can be at most that long.
111 m_getfld limits header names to 2 less than NAMESZ, which is fine,
112 because header names must be followed by a colon. Add one for
113 terminating NULL.
114
115 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
116
117 * sbr/m_getfld.c: in warning message, use NAMESZ-2 instead of
118 NAMESZ-1 bytes because the message says "exceeds", not
119 "is greater than or equal to".
120
121 2008-10-23 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
122
123 * docs/MAIL.FILTERING: added note on removing procmail -f or
124 -r options to try to suppress generation of a "From " line on
125 incoming messages.
126
127 2008-08-14 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
128
129 * test/setup-test: Don't run autogen.sh unless needed. Build in a
130 blddir under the temporary directory so as not to interfere with
131 whatever the developer may be doing in the source directory.
132 If the temporary directory already exists, rebuild and install it.
133
134 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
135
136 * sbr/ambigsw.c: Send print_sw output to stderr. This avoids
137 strange problems with scan `pick -bogus`, not to mention being
138 nicer anyway.
139
140 * sbr/getans.c, sbr/print_help.c, uip/msh.c: Send print_sw output
141 to stdout.
142
143 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/print_sw.c (print_sw): Add FILE * argument
144 and send output there rather than to stdout.
145
146 * test/tests/pick/test-stderr: Add test that error messages don't
147 end up going to stdout.
148
149 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
150
151 * uip/pick.c: Print matching messages immediately, instead of
152 waiting until the very end to print anything.
153 Ensure valid sequence name as soon as we parse it from command,
154 instead of searching the messages first.
155
156 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
157
158 * uip/Makefile.in, uip/popi.c: Remove popi.c, which has been dead
159 since PatchSet 257 (2000/06/12 11:07:34 UTC).
160
161 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
162
163 * h/mhparse.h: Move interfaces also used by mhbuildsbr.c here
164 from mhparse.c.
165
166 * uip/Makefile.in (mhbuild): Build with mhparse.o.
167
168 * uip/mhbuildsbr.c: Drop the duplication of mhparse.c.
169
170 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
171 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c: Drop check swdeclaration, which is
172 now in mhparse.h.
173
174 * uip/mhparse.c: Move some declarations to mhparse.h, and remove
175 'static' from the definitions here.
176 (get_ctinfo): Take magic mhbuild support from mhbuildsbr.c's copy,
177 and adapt callers.
178 (incl_name_value, extract_name_value): Move from mhbuildsbr.c to
179 support get_ctinfo change).
180 (get_content, open7Bit): Add Content-Disposition support, added to
181 mhbuildsbr.c's copy in mhbuildsbr.c r1.12 (PatchSet 549).
182 (InitText): Default to CHARSET_UNSPECIFIED instead of "US-ASCII",
183 as mhbuildsbr.c's copy did. Explain termproc.
184 (openBase64, openQuoted, open7Bit): Fix comment from r1.5:
185 suffixes, not prefixes.
186 (openMail): Explain showproc.
187
188 * test/tests/mhshow/test-cte-binary: Add test for
189 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary (Debian #136976).
190
191 * test/tests/mhbuild/test-forw: Add an mhbuild test, testing forw
192 with and without RFC-934 mode. More mhbuild tests would be nice.
193
194 2008-08-13 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
195
196 * test/tests/bad-input/test-header: Add test for it.
197
198 * sbr/m_getfld.c: If we reach the end of the line without finding
199 a ':' when parsing a header field, treat that line as the
200 beginning of the body rather than blowing up. These messages are
201 usually spam, but it's nice to be able to at least scan them.
202
203 2008-08-12 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
204
205 * test/tests/mhshow/test-qp: Test various valid and invalid
206 escape sequences.
207
208 * uip/mhparse.c (openQuoted): Simplify the decode-or-show for loop by
209 peeking ahead to the next byte(s) when encountering '=', and just let
210 invalid escape sequences through as literals (fixes bug #15245).
211
212 2008-08-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
213
214 * autogen.sh (new file): add script for running the GNU
215 autotools in the right order
216 * INSTALL: mention that you need to run autogen.sh if you
217 got nmh from CVS
218 * docs/README.developers: mention autogen.sh rather than
219 suggesting running autoheader and autoconf by hand.
220 * test/setup-test: run autotools via autogen.sh
221
222 2008-08-08 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
223
224 * sbr/discard.c, sbr/m_getfld.c, uip/scansbr.c: Add support for
225 DragonFlyBSD stdio (from NetBSD pkgsrc).
226
227 2008-08-05 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
228
229 * uip/folder.c: chdir(nmhdir) in main rather than in dodir, which
230 is called many times. Drop the chdir in get_folder_info, which
231 served no purpose at all. If struct stat has d_type (BSD), use
232 that to skip processing (strcmp, stat, and so on) of message
233 files, mostly undoing the slow-down from the last change.
234
235 * configure.in: Call CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE.
236
237 * aclocal.m4: Add CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE from
238 GNU coreutils.
239
240 2008-08-04 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
241
242 * uip/folder.c: Simplify dodir/addir/addfold. Dump hacky
243 over-optimization in addir that tried to avoid readdir after all
244 child directories had been read; this was also trying to support
245 symlinks to directories, but would have been failing (because
246 nlink may have gone to 0 with symlinks to directories remaining)
247 had the lstat usage been correct (lstat doesn't fail for normal
248 directories; should have used S_ISLNK).
249
250 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
251
252 * test/setup-test: use 'set -e' so we stop on compile failure.
253 Configure --enable-debug for convenience in debugging.
254
255 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: bug #23319: rework the way we handle the working
256 directory when invoking the user's shell, so that we don't have
257 issues when the cwd contains a space or shell special character.
258 * test/tests/whatnow/test-attach-detach, test/tests/whatnow/test-cd,
259 test/tests/whatnow/test-ls: test cases for this.
260
261 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: add 'do { ... } while (0)' wrappers
262 to various multi-statement macros to avoid nasty surprises
263 if the macros are used in if() clauses.
264
265 * bug #23436: man/scan.man, man/forw.man, man/inc.man,
266 man/mh-chart.man, man/mhmail.man, man/mhshow.man,
267 man/mhstore.man, man/msgchk.man, man/packf.man, man/scan.man:
268 fix minor syntax errors groff warns about.
269 * test/runtest, test/README: allow test cases to report
270 that they have been SKIPped as well as PASS/FAIL
271 * test/tests/manpages/test-manpages - new test which runs groff
272 on the manpages and checks that there are no warnings.
273 * test/runalltests: ignore editor backup files
274
275 2008-08-03 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
276
277 * etc/replcomps, etc/replgroupcomps: Trim trailing whitespace from
278 Subject field.
279
280 2008-08-03 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
281
282 * sbr/fmt_compile.c: when doing an if-test on the result
283 of a function which returns a string result, check whether
284 the string is non-empty (as the documentation says we do).
285 Previously we were always testing the integer 'value'. Bug
286 spotted by Eric Gillespie.
287 * test/tests/repl/test-if-str: test case for this bug
288
289 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
290
291 * test/setup-test: Run 'make clean' before building
292
293 2008-07-24 Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>
294
295 * test/runtest: cat test-temp-dir only once. Destroy and create
296 test Mail hierarchy here, so each test has its own independent
297 test data.
298
299 * test/setup-test: Drop needless pushd/popd, which don't exist in
300 sh anyway. Don't use aclocal, which is part of automake.
301 Don't create Mail hierarchy here (see test/runtest).
302
303 * test/tests/folder/test-create, tests/folder/test-total: Drop
304 unused BINDIR.
305
306 * tests/pick/test-pick: Remove failing no-op test.
307
308 * test/tests/scan/test-scan: Write expected and actual output to
309 files and diff them. This way, if the output differs, diff
310 provides the FAILing exit code and shows the differences.
311
312 2008-06-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
313 * man/repl.man, etc/mhl.reply:
314 Add an attribution line when replying to messages.
315
316 2008-06-02 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
317
318 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, sbr/done.c, uip/inc.c,
319 uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhlist.c, uip/mhn.c, uip/mhshow.c,
320 uip/mhstore.c, uip/mhtest.c, uip/packf.c, uip/pick.c,
321 uip/rcvdist.c, uip/rcvstore.c, uip/sendsbr.c: when
322 building on gcc, use the noreturn attribute on various
323 functions (should improve code and avoid some spurious
324 'uninitialized variable' warnings).
325
326 2008-06-01 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
327
328 * docs/README.developers: update the bits about doing a
329 release announcement, now I've actually done one.
330
331 2008-05-22 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
332
333 * uip/scansbr.c: don't use MB_CUR_MAX if we aren't compiled
334 with multibyte support.
335
336 * uip/whatnowsbr.c: factor out common code for writing ls
337 shell command, and make it do more sensible buffer length
338 checks. Also avoid relying on the return value of sprintf(),
339 as some old systems don't return number of characters written.
340
341 2008-05-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
342
343 * sbr/utils.c (mh_xrealloc): don't assume realloc() can
344 handle NULL pointers; some non-POSIX realloc()s can't.
345
346 * sbr/dtimep.lex: add some table size declarations for the
347 benefit of elderly lexes with small defaults.
348
349 2008-05-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
350
351 * sbr/addrsbr.c: removed "err" from conditional, because gcc
352 correctly warned that it would always evaluate as true. It's
353 the address of a static array.
354
355 2008-05-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
356
357 * sbr/Makefile.in, config/Makefile.in: Don't use $< in target rules
358 in makefiles, as POSIX says it's only defined in inference rules.
359
360 2008-05-13 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
361
362 * configure.in, INSTALL: if --enable-masquerade is not
363 specified to configure, enable all supported masquerade forms.
364 This allows users to masquerade with the default
365 configuration. That seems to be more worthwhile now than
366 trying to prevent users from using it, especially with
367 single-user installations or those where a user can edit
368 etc/mts.conf.
369
370 2008-05-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
371
372 * bug #23167: sbr/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): make bad permissions
373 on .netrc be an instantly fatal error. Previously we returned
374 an error value; however, no caller was checking it. So now
375 ruserpass() has a void return type.
376
377 * bug #23163: various minor fixes for the benefit of
378 older Unixes (specifically SunOS 4):
379 reintroduce strerror() substitute implementation
380 provide memmove() substitute implementation
381
382 * bug #23163: fix accidentally broken 'build outside
383 source directory' feature
384
385 * bug #23162: sbr/dtime.c: fix stray HAVE_TM_GMTOFF that
386 wasn't updated to the new macro name.
387
388 2008-04-30 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
389
390 * mts/smtp/smtp.c: provide a callback for SASL_CB_AUTHNAME
391 (fixes issue with SASL sending the wrong username in some
392 circumstances). Thanks to <der_wachtmeister@freenet.de>
393 for the patch.
394
395 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
396
397 * Revert previous attempt at fix for SASL issue as it
398 is the wrong approach.
399
400 * Fix in correct manner, by making sm_rrecord() and thus
401 sm_hear() set the length of the reply string correctly
402 (the SASL libraries now care if you pass in the wrong
403 length).
404
405 * Correct various places in smtp.c where the reply string
406 might not have been correctly NUL-terminated. Includes a
407 fix for a particularly nasty and long standing screwup
408 where the buffer length counting in smhear() was totally
409 broken for continued lines from the server.
410
411 2008-04-29 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
412
413 * Cope with sasl_decode64() returning SASL_CONTINUE, as
414 happens with newer sasl libraries and LOGIN auth.
415
416 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
417
418 * Updated some of the 'how to do a release' documentation.
419
420 * Upped the VERSION string to '1.3-dev', since 1.3-RC1 has
421 been branched off.
422
423 2008-04-27 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
424
425 * Released nmh-1.3 RC1.
426
427 2008-04-11 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
428
429 * acconfig.h, configure.in, sbr/dtime.c, sbr/pidwait.c,
430 uip/mhshowsbr.c, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c, uip/termsbr.c:
431 move most remaining macros out of acconfig.h which is an
432 obsolete feature of autoconf
433
434 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
435
436 * bug #18655: fix use of admonish() for a fatal error (should
437 be adios(); only actual effect would be wrong exit code).
438 Thanks to Craig Leres for spotting this.
439
440 2008-04-05 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
441
442 * bug #20028 (Debian bug 399271): fix code assuming that pointer
443 differences were 32 bits -- thanks to Dean Gaudet for the patch.
444
445 2008-01-25 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
446
447 * uip/mhshowsbr.c (show_all_messages): Be more generous when parsing
448 multipart messages.
449
450 2007-11-04 Joel Reicher <joel@panacea.null.org>
451
452 * Changed done() link overriding to function pointer. Return type
453 is now void so that exit() can be used as done() callback. Dead
454 code return from all done()s removed, with return 1 in main()
455 following done() (should never be reached).
456
457 2007-08-21 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
458
459 * Red Hat Bug #253342: inc.c, utils.c, utils.h: When inc is run with
460 the -silent flag, don't exit(1) for no apparent reason.
461
462 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
463
464 * bug #18630, #18631, #18632, #18634: various patches from
465 Craig Leres fixing error message argument problems.
466
467 2007-03-12 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
468
469 * bug #15212: configure.in, acconfig.h: remove configure test for
470 broken AT&T vi. This test was broken (it was always returning
471 failure even for non-broken vi implementations) and
472 unfixable. Nobody should be using AT&T vi any more so I have
473 simply moved it back to being a setting you can put manually into
474 acconfig.h if you must.
475
476 2006-10-24 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
477
478 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, add
479 name= portion to Content-Type header. This makes them
480 consistent with attachformat value 0. And it allows mhstore
481 to use that (file)name when extracting attachments.
482
483 2006-08-26 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
484
485 * configure.in: If we're not using dotlocking, there is no need to set
486 inc sgid.
487
488 2006-03-30 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
489
490 * uip/sendsbr.c: with attachformat values of 1 or 2, only
491 generate Content-Disposition headers for MIME attachments, not
492 for the message contents themselves. Microsoft Outlook Build
493 10.0.6626, at least, doesn't show the message contents if they
494 have Content-Disposition.
495
496 2006-03-09 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
497
498 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c (decode_rfc2047): Don't close the iconv descriptor
499 if it isn't valid.
500
501 2006-03-08 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
502
503 * (mh_strcasecmp): Rename the private strcasecmp function to
504 mh_strcasecmp. This keeps the newer gnu linker happy.
505
506 2006-03-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
507
508 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c: don't try to malloc 0 bytes if an RFC2047
509 encoded block is empty
510
511 2006-03-04 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
512
513 * etc/Makefile.in: use INSTALL_SCRIPT to install scripts;
514 this allows INSTALL_PROGRAM to be set to 'install -s' so
515 binaries are stripped on installation. Apparently the BSDs
516 do this.
517
518 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
519
520 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
521 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
522 dtime() prototype.
523
524 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
525
526 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
527 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
528 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
529 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
530 description.
531
532 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
533 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
534
535 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
536
537 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
538 function num_digits into utils.c
539
540 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
541
542 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
543 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
544 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
545
546 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
547
548 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
549 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
550 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
551 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
552 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
553 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
554 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
555 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
556
557 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
558
559 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
560 Content-Disposition header.
561
562 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
563
564 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
565 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
566 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
567 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
568 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
569 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
570 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
571 users to easily accomodate that by adding
572 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
573
574 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
575
576 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
577 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
578
579 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
580
581 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
582
583 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
584 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
585
586 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
587 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
588
589 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
590
591 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
592 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
593 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
594 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
595 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
596 the signature.
597
598 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
599
600 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
601 widths, restoring right justification feature
602
603 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
604
605 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
606 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
607 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
608
609 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
610 chars fit
611
612 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
613
614 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
615 handling multi column characters.
616
617 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
618
619 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
620
621 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
622
623 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
624 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
625 has been removed.
626
627 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
628
629 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
630
631 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
632
633 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
634 calling realloc.
635
636 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
637
638 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
639 calling malloc.
640
641 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
642
643 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
644 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
645 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
646 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
647
648 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
649
650 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
651 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
652 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
653 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
654 where configure's autodetection fails.
655
656 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
657
658 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
659 configure script change.
660
661 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
662
663 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
664 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
665 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
666 systems with libdb4.
667
668 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
669
670 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
671 the context is only read once.
672
673 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
674
675 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
676 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
677
678 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
679
680 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
681 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
682
683 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
684 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
685 the first one.
686
687 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
688 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
689 annotated messages.
690
691 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
692
693 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
694 vi isn't found during build.
695
696 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
697
698 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
699 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
700
701 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
702 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
703 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
704
705 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
706
707 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
708 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
709
710 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
711 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
712 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
713 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
714 very slow).
715
716 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
717 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
718 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
719
720 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
721 entry in the context file.
722
723 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
724
725 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
726 problems on some systems
727
728 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
729 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
730
731 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
732
733 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
734 sendmail isn't found during build.
735
736 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
737
738 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
739
740 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
741
742 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
743 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
744
745 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
746 references to the web page and mailing list locations
747
748 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
749 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
750
751 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
752 autoconf macros
753
754 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
755
756 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
757 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
758 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
759
760 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
761 was configured with --enable-apop.
762
763 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
764 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
765 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
766
767 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
768 new versions of flex.
769
770 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
771 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
772 doesn't guess wrongly.
773
774 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
775
776 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
777 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
778
779 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
780 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
781
782 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
783 files with numbers as names
784
785 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
786
787 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
788
789 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
790
791 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
792
793 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
794 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
795
796 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
797
798 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
799 vfork on Linux
800
801 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
802 test/report error writing to stdout
803
804 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
805
806 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
807
808 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
809 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
810 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
811
812 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
813 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
814 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
815
816 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
817
818 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
819 character set used by the current locale
820
821 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
822 message's filename overflows an int when converted
823
824 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
825 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
826
827 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
828
829 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
830 the terminal
831
832 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
833
834 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
835 from Michael Richardson.
836
837 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
838 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
839
840 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
841
842 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
843 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
844
845 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
846
847 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
848 find sub-parts of the specified part
849
850 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
851
852 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
853 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
854 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
855 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
856 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
857 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
858 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
859 that path.
860
861 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
862
863 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
864 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
865 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
866 renamed.
867
868 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
869 refiling with -src option.
870
871 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
872
873 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
874
875 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
876
877 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
878 mailpath being overwritten.
879
880 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
881
882 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
883 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
884 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
885 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
886 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
887 reinitializes the tmp file string.
888
889 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
890 if a format string was read from the profile.
891
892 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
893 path for the external hook.
894
895 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
896
897 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
898 another location for ndbm.
899
900 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
901
902 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
903 independent.
904 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
905 to empty folder.
906 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
907
908 Debian Bug#
909 136976 - Handle binary content messages
910 143427 - mh-format.man typo
911 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
912 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
913 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
914 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
915 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
916 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
917 181867 - typo for nmh.man
918
919 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
920
921 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
922 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
923 contitional code which will result in cached data to
924 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
925 and parse on the first use.
926 * Remove some unused flag bits.
927
928 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
929
930 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
931 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
932 * Fixes for bugs
933 #578 - repl leaks umask
934 #1393 - sortm core dumps
935 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
936 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
937 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
938 RFC2822 compliant
939 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
940 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
941
942 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
943
944 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
945 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
946
947 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
948
949 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
950 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
951 to docs/README.about.
952
953 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
954
955 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
956
957 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
958 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
959 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
960 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
961 enough).
962
963 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
964
965 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
966 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
967 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
968 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
969 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
970 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
971 as well.
972
973 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
974 summary configure prints out.
975
976 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
977 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
978 subjectively more readable) format.
979
980 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
981
982 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
983 all nmh commands.
984
985 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
986
987 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
988 19xx when it's not necessary.
989
990 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
991
992 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
993 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
994 roff mark-up.
995
996 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
997 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
998 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
999 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
1000 the man pages correctly.
1001
1002 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
1003
1004 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1005
1006 * Finished manpages ali-prev
1007
1008 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
1009 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
1010 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
1011 structure.
1012
1013 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
1014 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
1015 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
1016 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
1017
1018 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1019
1020 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
1021 the formatting rules I've been using.
1022
1023 * Finished ali-inc.
1024
1025 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1026
1027 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
1028 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
1029 used in the manpages.
1030
1031 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
1032 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
1033 read in the contents of the file as the variable
1034 $DATE.
1035
1036 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
1037 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
1038 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
1039 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
1040 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
1041 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
1042 bold flags and italicized parameters.
1043
1044 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1045
1046 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
1047 --with-locking option.
1048
1049 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
1050 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
1051 information was not being communicated to the
1052 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
1053 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
1054 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
1055 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
1056 undefined symbols problems.
1057
1058 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
1059 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
1060 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
1061 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
1062 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
1063 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
1064 for a genuine krb4 installation.
1065
1066 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1067
1068 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
1069 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
1070
1071 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1072
1073 * Made a new ./configure option called
1074 "--with-locking" that allows the file
1075 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
1076 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
1077
1078 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
1079 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
1080 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
1081 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
1082 the user that these are the valid options, and
1083 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
1084 descriptive enough.
1085
1086 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1087
1088 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
1089 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
1090 committed to supporting flex only, since
1091 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
1092 string, as well as other problems documented
1093 below and on nmh-workers.
1094
1095 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
1096 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
1097 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
1098 the flag.
1099
1100 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
1101 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
1102
1103 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1104
1105 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
1106 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
1107 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
1108
1109 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1110
1111 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
1112 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
1113
1114 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1115
1116 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
1117 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
1118 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
1119 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
1120 couldn't correctly identify them.
1121
1122 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1123
1124 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
1125 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
1126 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
1127 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
1128 not depending on an external archive.
1129
1130 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
1131 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
1132 mts/generic is no longer built.
1133
1134 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1135
1136 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
1137 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
1138 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
1139 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
1140 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
1141 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
1142 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
1143 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
1144
1145 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1146
1147 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
1148 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
1149 correct.
1150
1151 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1152
1153 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
1154 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
1155 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
1156 now finally mts.
1157
1158 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
1159 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
1160 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
1161 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
1162
1163 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
1164 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
1165 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
1166 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
1167 merged into the smtp code).
1168
1169 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
1170 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
1171 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
1172 of it for us.
1173
1174 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
1175 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
1176 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
1177 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
1178 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
1179 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
1180 in the appropriate Makefile.in
1181
1182 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1183
1184 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
1185 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
1186 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
1187 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
1188 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
1189 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
1190 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
1191 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
1192 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
1193 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
1194 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
1195
1196 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1197
1198 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
1199 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
1200 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
1201 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
1202 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
1203 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
1204 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
1205 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
1206 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
1207
1208 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1209
1210 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
1211 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
1212 able to access them.
1213
1214 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1215
1216 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
1217 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
1218
1219 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1220
1221 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
1222 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
1223 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
1224 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
1225
1226 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1227
1228 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
1229 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
1230 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
1231 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
1232 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
1233
1234 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
1235 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
1236
1237 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
1238
1239 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1240
1241 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
1242 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
1243 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
1244 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
1245
1246 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
1247 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
1248 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
1249 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
1250
1251 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
1252 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
1253 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
1254 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
1255
1256 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
1257 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
1258 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
1259
1260 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
1261
1262 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
1263 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
1264 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
1265 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
1266 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
1267 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
1268 my users.
1269
1270 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
1271 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
1272
1273 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
1274 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
1275
1276 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1277
1278 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
1279
1280 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1281
1282 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
1283 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
1284 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
1285 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
1286
1287 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1288
1289 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
1290 be easily changed from "," to "#".
1291
1292 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
1293
1294 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
1295
1296 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
1297 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
1298 README.developers.
1299
1300 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1301
1302 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
1303 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
1304 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
1305 but not for the subsequent data stream.
1306
1307 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
1308
1309 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
1310 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
1311 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
1312 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
1313 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
1314
1315 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1316
1317 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
1318 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
1319
1320 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
1321 cat, also define lorder as echo.
1322
1323 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
1324
1325 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1326
1327 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
1328 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
1329 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
1330
1331 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1332
1333 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
1334 #if 0 block).
1335
1336 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
1337 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
1338
1339 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1340
1341 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
1342 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
1343
1344 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1345
1346 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
1347 inc does not need to be setgid.
1348
1349 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1350
1351 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
1352 library, as found on Debian systems.
1353
1354 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
1355
1356 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1357
1358 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
1359 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
1360 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
1361 case-insensitivity flag.
1362
1363 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1364
1365 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
1366 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
1367
1368 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1369
1370 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
1371 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
1372 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
1373 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
1374 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
1375 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
1376 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
1377 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
1378 getting moved aside).
1379
1380 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
1381 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
1382
1383 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
1384
1385 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
1386 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
1387 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
1388 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
1389 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
1390 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
1391 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
1392 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
1393 the prototype, but never sets it.
1394
1395 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
1396 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
1397 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
1398 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
1399 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
1400 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
1401
1402 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
1403 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
1404 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
1405 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
1406 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
1407
1408 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1409
1410 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
1411 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
1412 of tws.h.
1413
1414 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
1415 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
1416 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
1417 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
1418 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
1419 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
1420 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
1421
1422 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1423
1424 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
1425
1426 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
1427 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
1428 this works on other systems.
1429
1430 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1431
1432 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
1433 checks for write failures.
1434
1435 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
1436
1437 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
1438
1439 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
1440 is patched in.
1441
1442 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
1443
1444 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
1445
1446 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1447
1448 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
1449 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
1450 a buffer boundary.
1451
1452 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1453
1454 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
1455 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
1456 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
1457 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
1458
1459 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1460
1461 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
1462 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
1463 place.
1464
1465 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
1466 as well as Makefiles.
1467
1468 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1469
1470 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
1471 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
1472 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
1473 should make maintainability easier.
1474
1475 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
1476 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
1477 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
1478 whatever you know works.
1479
1480 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1481
1482 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
1483 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
1484 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
1485
1486 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
1487 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
1488 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
1489 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
1490
1491 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
1492 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
1493 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
1494
1495 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
1496 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
1497 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
1498 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
1499 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
1500
1501 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
1502 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
1503 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
1504 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
1505 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
1506 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
1507 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
1508 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
1509 from the BSD version.
1510
1511 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
1512 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
1513 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
1514
1515 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1516 in ruserpass.c also.
1517
1518 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1519 report:
1520
1521 This happens on solaris:
1522
1523 % man mts.conf
1524 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1525 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1526
1527 It is fixed by
1528
1529 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1530
1531 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1532 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1533
1534 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1535
1536 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1537 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1538 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1539 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1540 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1541 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1542 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1543 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1544 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1545 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1546 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1547
1548 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1549 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1550 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1551 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1552 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1553 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1554 out of nowhere.
1555
1556 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1557 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1558 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1559 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1560 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1561
1562 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1563 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1564
1565 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1566
1567 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1568 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1569 to stdin, such as exmh.
1570
1571 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1572 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1573 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1574 other files.
1575
1576 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1577
1578 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1579 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1580 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1581 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1582 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1583 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1584 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1585
1586 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1587
1588 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1589 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1590
1591 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1592
1593 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1594 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1595
1596 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1597
1598 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1599 --enable-apop.
1600
1601 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1602 along with any -host or -user option.
1603
1604 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1605
1606 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1607
1608 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1609 process was fresh in my mind.
1610
1611 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1612
1613 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1614 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1615
1616 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1617
1618 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1619
1620 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1621 patch:
1622
1623 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1624 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1625 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1626 part of the program's name.
1627
1628 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1629 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1630 to quote.
1631
1632 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1633
1634 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1635 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1636 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1637 single-character format would cause programs using this
1638 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1639 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1640 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1641 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1642 in the array.
1643
1644 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1645
1646 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1647 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1648 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1649 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1650 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1651 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1652
1653 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1654 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1655 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1656 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1657 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1658 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1659 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1660 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1661
1662 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1663 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1664 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1665 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1666 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1667 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1668 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1669 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1670 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1671 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1672
1673 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1674
1675 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1676 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1677
1678 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1679 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1680
1681 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1682 exit 2
1683
1684 and:
1685
1686 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1687
1688 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1689 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1690 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1691 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1692
1693 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1694 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1695 problem in the routine.
1696
1697 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1698
1699 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1700 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1701
1702 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1703 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1704 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1705 spool somehow.
1706
1707 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1708
1709 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1710 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1711 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1712 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1713 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1714 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1715 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1716 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1717 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1718 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1719
1720 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1721
1722 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1723 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1724 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1725 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1726 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1727 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1728 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1729 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1730 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1731 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1732 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1733 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1734
1735 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1736 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1737 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1738 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1739 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1740
1741 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1742 POP is enabled.
1743
1744 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1745
1746 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1747 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1748 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1749 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1750 here.
1751
1752 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1753
1754 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1755
1756 * Applied, after some finessing,
1757 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1758
1759 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1760
1761 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1762
1763 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1764 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1765 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1766 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1767
1768 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1769
1770 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1771 forgetting to do so!).
1772
1773 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1774 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1775 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1776 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1777 arguments to enable all three types.
1778
1779 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1780 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1781
1782 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1783 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1784 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1785 updated copy of mts.conf.
1786
1787 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1788
1789 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1790 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1791 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1792
1793 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1794 and
1795 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1796
1797 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1798 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1799 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1800
1801 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1802 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1803 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1804
1805 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1806 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1807 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1808
1809 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1810
1811 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1812
1813 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1814
1815 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1816
1817 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1818 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1819
1820 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1821 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1822 certain suffix to run properly.
1823
1824 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1825 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1826 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1827
1828 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1829 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1830 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1831 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1832 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1833 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1834 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1835
1836 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1837
1838 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1839 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1840 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1841 until some year far in the future).
1842
1843 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1844
1845 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1846
1847 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1848 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1849
1850 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1851 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1852 corrupted.
1853
1854 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1855
1856 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1857 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1858 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1859 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1860 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1861 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1862
1863 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1864
1865 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1866
1867 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1868 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1869 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1870
1871 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1872 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1873 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1874 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1875 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1876 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1877 leads me to:
1878
1879 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1880 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1881 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1882 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1883 of masquerading individually.
1884
1885 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1886 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1887 GECOS field delimiters.
1888
1889 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1890
1891 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1892 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1893 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1894 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1895 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1896 and explaining the feature.
1897
1898 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1899
1900 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1901 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1902 so).
1903
1904 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1905 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1906 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1907
1908 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1909 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1910 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1911 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1912
1913 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1914 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1915 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1916 anywhere.
1917
1918 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1919
1920 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1921 code to be executed.
1922
1923 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1924
1925 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1926
1927 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1928 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1929 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1930 quotes embedded in them.
1931
1932 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1933
1934 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1935 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1936 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1937 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1938 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1939 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1940 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1941 allowed to specify.
1942
1943 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1944 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1945 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1946 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1947 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1948
1949 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1950
1951 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1952
1953 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1954 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1955 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1956 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1957
1958 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1959 KPOP server.
1960
1961 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1962
1963 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1964
1965 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1966
1967 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1968 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1969 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1970
1971 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1972 mhn.defaults.sh.
1973
1974 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1975
1976 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1977 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1978 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1979 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1980 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1981 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1982
1983 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1984 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1985
1986 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1987
1988 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1989 page.
1990
1991 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1992
1993 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1994 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1995 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1996 to be setgid.
1997
1998 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1999 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
2000 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
2001 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
2002 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
2003 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
2004 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
2005 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
2006 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
2007 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
2008 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
2009 processing that post has).
2010
2011 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2012
2013 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
2014 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
2015 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
2016 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
2017 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
2018 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
2019 Solaris 2.6).
2020
2021 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2022
2023 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
2024
2025 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
2026
2027 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
2028
2029 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
2030 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
2031
2032 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
2033 command-line.
2034
2035 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2036
2037 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
2038 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
2039 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
2040 some development.
2041
2042 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2043
2044 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
2045 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
2046 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
2047 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
2048 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
2049 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
2050
2051 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2052
2053 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
2054
2055 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2056
2057 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
2058 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
2059 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
2060 caught again. This works for now.
2061
2062 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
2063
2064 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2065
2066 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
2067 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
2068
2069 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2070
2071 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
2072 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
2073
2074 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
2075
2076 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
2077
2078 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2079
2080 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
2081 changes. Both need more cleanup.
2082
2083 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2084
2085 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
2086 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
2087 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
2088 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
2089 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
2090 multiple purposes.
2091
2092 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2093
2094 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
2095 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
2096 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
2097
2098 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
2099 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
2100 config.guess.
2101
2102 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2103
2104 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
2105 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
2106 to a directory on another device with more free space.
2107
2108 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2109
2110 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
2111 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
2112
2113 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2114
2115 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
2116 distributed.
2117
2118 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
2119 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
2120
2121 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
2122 macros, regardless of platform.
2123
2124 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
2125 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2126
2127 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
2128 with x-conversions=gzip.
2129
2130 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2131
2132 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
2133 post.c.
2134
2135 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
2136 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
2137 implicit definition of ioctl().
2138
2139 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
2140 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
2141 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
2142 want to mess with them.
2143
2144 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2145
2146 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
2147 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
2148
2149 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
2150 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2151
2152 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
2153 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
2154 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
2155
2156 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
2157 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
2158 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
2159
2160 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
2161 function initgroups.
2162
2163 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
2164 function.
2165
2166 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
2167 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
2168 to fix warnings.
2169
2170 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
2171 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
2172 prevent warnings.
2173
2174 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
2175 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
2176 statements).
2177
2178
2179 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2180
2181 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
2182 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
2183 preventing compilation on at least linux.
2184
2185 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
2186 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
2187
2188 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2189
2190 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
2191
2192 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
2193 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
2194 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
2195 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
2196
2197 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
2198 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
2199
2200 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2201
2202 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
2203
2204 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2205
2206 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
2207 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
2208
2209 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
2210
2211 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
2212 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
2213
2214 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
2215 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
2216 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
2217 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
2218
2219 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
2220 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
2221
2222 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2223
2224 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
2225 substitute it for mktemp if available.
2226
2227 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
2228
2229 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
2230 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
2231 proper #defines.
2232
2233 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2234
2235 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
2236
2237 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
2238
2239 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
2240 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2241
2242 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
2243 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
2244 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
2245
2246 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
2247 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
2248 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
2249
2250 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
2251 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
2252 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2253
2254 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
2255 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
2256 <swb@nconnect.net>.
2257
2258 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
2259 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2260
2261 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
2262 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2263
2264 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
2265 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
2266
2267 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
2268 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
2269 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2270
2271 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
2272 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
2273
2274 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
2275 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
2276 <elleron@servtech.com>.
2277
2278 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
2279 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
2280 <rmg@netapp.com>.
2281
2282 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
2283 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
2284
2285 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
2286 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
2287 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
2288 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
2289
2290 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
2291 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
2292
2293 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2294
2295 * Released nmh-1.0.
2296
2297 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
2298 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
2299 would not be changed.
2300
2301 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
2302 one from the Apache web server.
2303
2304 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
2305 (this should have been done a long time ago).
2306
2307 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
2308 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
2309 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
2310
2311 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
2312
2313 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
2314
2315 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
2316 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
2317 verbose printing).
2318
2319 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
2320 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
2321 removes a bad race condition.
2322
2323 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
2324 style drop file.
2325
2326 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
2327 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
2328 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
2329
2330 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
2331 sequence information.
2332
2333 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
2334 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
2335
2336 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
2337 count.
2338
2339 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
2340 is empty.
2341
2342 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
2343
2344 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
2345 interpret 034 as octal.
2346
2347 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
2348
2349 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
2350 mhstore, and mhbuild.
2351
2352 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
2353 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
2354
2355 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
2356 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
2357
2358 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
2359 in the c_cefile structure when building.
2360
2361 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
2362 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
2363
2364 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
2365 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
2366 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
2367
2368 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
2369 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
2370 and mhshow. Updated man pages
2371
2372 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
2373
2374 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
2375
2376 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
2377 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
2378 file "mhoutsbr.c".
2379
2380 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
2381
2382 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
2383 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
2384
2385 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
2386 header field information.
2387
2388 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
2389 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
2390
2391 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
2392 values when parsing a content.
2393
2394 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
2395 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
2396
2397 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
2398 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
2399
2400 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
2401 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2402
2403 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
2404 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
2405
2406 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
2407
2408 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
2409
2410 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
2411
2412 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
2413
2414 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
2415 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
2416 read.
2417
2418 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
2419 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
2420
2421 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
2422 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
2423 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
2424 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
2425 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
2426 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
2427 be setuid/setgid.
2428
2429 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2430
2431 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
2432 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
2433 buffer length checks for this parameter.
2434
2435 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
2436 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
2437
2438 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
2439
2440 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
2441 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
2442 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
2443 of the limits on the length of command lines.
2444
2445 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
2446 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
2447 fix).
2448
2449 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
2450 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
2451 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
2452 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
2453 arguments.
2454
2455 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2456
2457 * Released nmh-0.27.
2458
2459 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
2460 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
2461
2462 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
2463 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
2464 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
2465 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
2466 with no arguments.
2467
2468 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
2469 mhbuild returns an error.
2470
2471 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
2472 rename the draft file.
2473
2474 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
2475 use a global variable.
2476
2477 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
2478 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
2479
2480 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
2481 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
2482
2483 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
2484 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
2485 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
2486
2487 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
2488 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
2489
2490 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
2491 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
2492 this new page.
2493
2494 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
2495 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
2496 viamail program.
2497
2498 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
2499 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
2500
2501 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
2502 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
2503 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
2504
2505 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
2506 to new function output_content_folder.
2507
2508 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
2509 new function output_content_file.
2510
2511 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
2512 to new function parse_format_string.
2513
2514 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
2515 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
2516 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2517 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2518
2519 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2520 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2521 message/external file from ftp.
2522
2523 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2524 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2525 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2526
2527 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2528 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2529 mhfree.c.
2530
2531 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2532 file mhshowsbr.c.
2533
2534 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2535 new file mhstoresbr.c
2536
2537 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2538 file mhparse.c.
2539
2540 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2541 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2542
2543 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2544 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2545
2546 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2547 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2548 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2549
2550 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2551
2552 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2553
2554 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2555 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2556 to main().
2557
2558 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2559 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2560
2561 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2562 to mhparse.c).
2563
2564 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2565
2566 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2567
2568 * Released nmh-0.26.
2569
2570 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2571 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2572 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2573 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2574
2575 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2576 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2577 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2578 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2579 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2580
2581 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2582 But it is not on by default.
2583
2584 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2585 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2586
2587 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2588
2589 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2590
2591 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2592
2593 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2594
2595 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2596 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2597
2598 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2599
2600 * Released nmh-0.25.
2601
2602 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2603 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2604 uses the original name of the library.
2605
2606 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2607 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2608 links remaining.
2609
2610 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2611 list_content and list_debug.
2612
2613 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2614
2615 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2616 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2617
2618 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2619
2620 * Released nmh-0.24.
2621
2622 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2623
2624 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2625 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2626
2627 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2628 large sequence line.
2629
2630 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2631
2632 * Released nmh-0.23.
2633
2634 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2635
2636 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2637 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2638 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2639 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2640
2641 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2642 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2643 file h/mhnsbr.h.
2644
2645 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2646
2647 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2648
2649 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2650
2651 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2652 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2653
2654 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2655 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2656
2657 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2658 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2659
2660 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2661 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2662
2663 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2664
2665 * Released nmh-0.22.
2666
2667 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2668 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2669
2670 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2671
2672 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2673 mh-profile(5) man page.
2674
2675 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2676 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2677
2678 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2679
2680 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2681
2682 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2683 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2684
2685 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2686
2687 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2688 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2689 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2690
2691 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2692 source message on the standard input.
2693
2694 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2695
2696 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2697 rather than -rfc934mode.
2698
2699 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2700 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2701 only one message.
2702
2703 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2704 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2705
2706 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2707 it is still needed.
2708
2709 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2710
2711 * Released nmh-0.21.
2712
2713 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2714 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2715
2716 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2717 encoding to use.
2718
2719 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2720 to use for text contents.
2721
2722 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2723
2724 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2725
2726 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2727
2728 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2729
2730 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2731 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2732
2733 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2734 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2735 spaces between encoded word are.
2736
2737 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2738
2739 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2740 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2741
2742 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2743 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2744 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2745
2746 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2747
2748 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2749 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2750
2751 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2752
2753 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2754
2755 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2756 ISO-8859-X character set.
2757
2758 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2759 pager more.
2760
2761 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2762 permissions, not write permissions.
2763
2764 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2765 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2766
2767 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2768 distribution.
2769
2770 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2771
2772 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2773
2774 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2775 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2776
2777 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2778 message contains valid character set.
2779
2780 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2781 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2782
2783 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2784 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2785
2786 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2787 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2788 between an encoded word and normal text.
2789
2790 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2791 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2792
2793 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2794 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2795
2796 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2797 and -help.
2798
2799 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2800 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2801 loops).
2802
2803 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2804 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2805
2806 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2807 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2808
2809 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2810
2811 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2812
2813 * Released nmh-0.20.
2814
2815 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2816
2817 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2818
2819 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2820 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2821 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2822
2823 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2824 and the To: line was missing.
2825
2826 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2827
2828 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2829
2830 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2831
2832 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2833 watch the POP transaction.
2834
2835 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2836 first, and use it if available.
2837
2838 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2839 first, and use it if available.
2840
2841 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2842
2843 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2844
2845 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2846 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2847 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2848 sequence line.
2849
2850 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2851 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2852 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2853
2854 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2855 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2856 lines.
2857
2858 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2859
2860 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2861 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2862
2863 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2864
2865 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2866 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2867
2868 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2869 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2870 message to which you are replying.
2871
2872 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2873 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2874 making group replies.
2875
2876 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2877
2878 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2879
2880 * Released nmh-0.19.
2881
2882 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2883 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2884
2885 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2886 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2887 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2888 to the end of the man page.
2889
2890 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2891 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2892 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2893 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2894 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2895 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2896
2897 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2898 pages.
2899
2900 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2901 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2902 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2903
2904 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2905 the next available number above the message number you wish
2906 to preserve.
2907
2908 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2909 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2910
2911 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2912 file sbr/seq_print.c
2913
2914 * flist will now update the current folder.
2915
2916 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2917 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2918 but now undocumented.
2919
2920 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2921 traversing folders.
2922
2923 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2924 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2925
2926 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2927
2928 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2929 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2930
2931 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2932
2933 * Released nmh-0.18.
2934
2935 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2936 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2937 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2938
2939 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2940 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2941
2942 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2943 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2944 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2945 previous public/private status.
2946
2947 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2948 correctly.
2949
2950 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2951 private sequences).
2952
2953 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2954 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2955 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2956
2957 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2958 take option to determine whether it should get current
2959 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2960 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2961
2962 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2963
2964 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2965 wait for stopped processes.
2966
2967 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2968 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2969
2970 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2971
2972 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2973
2974 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2975 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2976
2977 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2978 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2979
2980 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2981 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2982 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2983 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2984
2985 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2986 status allocation).
2987
2988 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2989 the code.
2990
2991 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2992
2993 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2994 the debugging output.
2995
2996 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2997 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2998
2999 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3000
3001 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
3002
3003 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
3004 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
3005
3006 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
3007
3008 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
3009 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
3010 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
3011 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
3012 in the given sequence.
3013
3014 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
3015 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
3016 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
3017 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
3018 subdirectories of a given directory.
3019
3020 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
3021 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
3022 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
3023
3024 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
3025 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
3026
3027 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
3028
3029 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
3030 to 0700 (was 0711).
3031
3032 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
3033 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
3034 fields are now calculated at runtime.
3035
3036 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
3037 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
3038 are calculated at runtime.
3039
3040 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3041
3042 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
3043
3044 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
3045 about checking for global mh.profile.
3046
3047 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
3048 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
3049 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
3050 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
3051 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
3052 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
3053
3054 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
3055 adding message to folder itself.
3056
3057 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
3058 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
3059 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
3060 instead of exiting.
3061
3062 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
3063 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
3064 the error EEXIST.
3065
3066 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
3067 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
3068 is the same as the direct smtp code).
3069
3070 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
3071 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
3072
3073 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
3074 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
3075 code to use it yet).
3076
3077 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3078
3079 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
3080
3081 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
3082 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
3083
3084 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
3085 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
3086
3087 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
3088
3089 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
3090 to folder_addmsg.c
3091
3092 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3093
3094 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
3095
3096 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
3097
3098 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
3099
3100 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
3101 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
3102
3103 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
3104
3105 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
3106
3107 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
3108
3109 * Removed all the code for BERK.
3110
3111 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
3112
3113 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
3114 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
3115
3116 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
3117 configuration files.
3118
3119 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
3120
3121 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3122
3123 * Released nmh-0.17.
3124
3125 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
3126
3127 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
3128 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
3129
3130 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
3131 defined.
3132
3133 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
3134 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
3135
3136 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
3137 number of refiled message.
3138
3139 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
3140
3141 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
3142 for return value of wait().
3143
3144 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
3145
3146 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3147
3148 * Released nmh-0.16.
3149
3150 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3151
3152 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
3153
3154 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
3155 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
3156 deal with binary messages, yet).
3157
3158 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
3159
3160 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
3161
3162 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
3163 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
3164 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
3165 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
3166 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
3167 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
3168
3169 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
3170 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
3171
3172 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
3173 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
3174
3175 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
3176 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
3177 MH-6.8.4 patch).
3178
3179 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
3180
3181 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
3182
3183 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
3184 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
3185 composition files.
3186
3187 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
3188 files.
3189
3190 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
3191
3192 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
3193 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
3194 which used unsigned chars by default.
3195
3196 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3197
3198 * Released nmh-0.15.
3199
3200 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
3201 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
3202
3203 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
3204
3205 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
3206
3207 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
3208 return 0.
3209
3210 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
3211 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
3212 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
3213
3214 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
3215 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
3216
3217 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
3218
3219 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
3220 they conflict with defines on AIX.
3221
3222 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
3223 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
3224 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
3225 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
3226
3227 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
3228 and put in own subroutine.
3229
3230 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
3231 and put in own subroutine.
3232
3233 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
3234 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
3235 refile.c to use new routine.
3236
3237 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3238
3239 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
3240
3241 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
3242 seq_getnum.
3243
3244 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
3245 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
3246 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
3247
3248 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
3249 no longer used.
3250
3251 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
3252 adding message to sequence.
3253
3254 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
3255 corresponding file in sbr.
3256
3257 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
3258 file in sbr.
3259
3260 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
3261
3262 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
3263 all selected messages from a sequence.
3264
3265 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
3266 selected messages to a sequence.
3267
3268 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
3269 and m_seqok.c.
3270
3271 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3272
3273 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
3274 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
3275
3276 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3277
3278 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
3279 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
3280
3281 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3282
3283 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
3284 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
3285
3286 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3287
3288 * Released nmh-0.14.
3289
3290 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
3291 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
3292
3293 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3294
3295 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
3296 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
3297 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
3298 environment variable.
3299
3300 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
3301 draft folder facility in nmh.
3302
3303 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
3304 to fmt_compile.h.
3305
3306 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
3307 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
3308 fmt_addr.c.
3309
3310 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
3311 options.
3312
3313 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3314
3315 * Released nmh-0.13.
3316
3317 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
3318 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
3319 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
3320 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
3321 to MAXARGS).
3322
3323 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
3324 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
3325
3326 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3327
3328 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
3329 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
3330
3331 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3332
3333 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
3334 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
3335
3336 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3337
3338 * Released nmh-0.12.

3344 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3345
3346 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
3347 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
3348
3349 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
3350 mp->attrstats with macros.
3351
3352 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
3353 in msh.c instead.
3354
3355 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
3356 to hide dd->dd_fd.
3357
3358 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
3359 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
3360
3361 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
3362 will suppress the display of the message header.
3363
3364 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
3365
3366 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
3367 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
3368
3369 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
3370
3371 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.

3376 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
3377
3378 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
3379 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
3380
3381 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
3382
3383 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
3384
3385 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
3386 folder/message structure when done with folder.
3387
3388 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
3389 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

3399
3400 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3401
3402 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
3403 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
3404
3405 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
3406 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
3407
3408 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
3409 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.

3411 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3412
3413 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
3414 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
3415
3416 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3417
3418 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
3419 of missing tabs in regex.

3433
3434 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3435
3436 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
3437 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
3438
3439 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3440
3441 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
3442
3443 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
3444 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
3445
3446 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3447
3448 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
3449 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
3450
3451 * Released nmh-0.08.
3452
3453 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
3454 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
3455 locking database itself.
3456
3457 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3458
3459 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
3460
3461 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
3462 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
3463 option.
3464
3465 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
3466 rather than mmdf format.
3467
3468 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
3469 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
3470 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
3471 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
3472
3473 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
3474
3475 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3476
3477 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
3478 added to packf.
3479
3480 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3481 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3482 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
3483
3484 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
3485 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
3486 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
3487
3488 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3489
3490 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
3491 can still easily change this in config.h).
3492
3493 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
3494 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
3495 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
3496
3497 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3498
3499 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
3500 than tzset and external timezone variable.

3503
3504 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

3511 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3512
3513 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
3514 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
3515
3516 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3517 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3518 on SCO 5.x.
3519
3520 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3521 built-in FTP client in mhn.
3522
3523 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
3524 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
3525
3526 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
3527
3528 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
3529
3530 * Added configure check for tzset.
3531
3532 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3533
3534 * Released nmh-0.06.
3535
3536 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3537 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3538
3539 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3540 many such machines around anymore.
3541
3542 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3543 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3544
3545 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3546 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3547
3548 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3550 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3551 pre-generated version if necessary.
3552
3553 * Released nmh-0.05.
3554
3555 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3556 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3557 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3558 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3559
3560 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3561 be linked in one pass.
3562
3563 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3564
3565 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3566 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3567
3568 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3569
3570 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3571
3572 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3573
3574 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3575 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3576 become the current folder.
3577
3578 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3579
3580 * Released nmh-0.04.

3583 it.
3584
3585 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3586
3587 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3588 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3589 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3590
3591 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3592
3593 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3594 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3595
3596 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3597
3598 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3599 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3600 using POP.
3601
3602 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3603 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3604
3605 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3606
3607 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3608 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3609 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3610 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3611 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3612 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3613
3614 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3615
3616 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3617 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3618
3619 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3620 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3621
3622 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3623
3624 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3625 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3626
3627 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3628
3629 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3630 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3631 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3632
3633 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3634
3635 * Released nmh-0.03.
3636
3637 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3638 .mh_sequence file existed.
3639
3640 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3641 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3642
3643 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3644 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3645 man page.
3646
3647 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3648
3649 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3650 flist man page.
3651
3652 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3653
3654 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3655 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3656 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3657
3658 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3659
3660 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3661 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3662 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3663
3664 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3665
3666 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3667 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3668
3669 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3670
3671 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3672
3673 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3674 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3675 directory from where the source code is located.
3676
3677 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3678
3679 * Released nmh-0.02.

3696
3697 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3698
3699 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3700 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3701 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3702 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3703 rather than in script.
3704
3705 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3706
3707 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3708
3709 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3710 macro defined on Solaris.
3711
3712 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3713
3714 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3715 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3716
3717 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3718 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3719 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3720 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3721 options if enabled.
3722
3723 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3724
3725 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3726 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3727
3728 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3729 correctly found.
3730
3731 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3732
3733 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3734
3735 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3736 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3737
3738 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3739
3740 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3741 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3742
3743 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3744
3745 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3746 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3747 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3748 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3749 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3750 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3751
3752 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3753
3754 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3755
3756 * Released nmh-0.01.
3757
3758 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3759 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3760 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3761 have POSIX signals.
3762
3763 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3764
3765 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3766 their man pages.
3767
3768 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3769
3770 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3771 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3772
3773 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3774
3775 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3776 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3777 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3778 script to find_program.
3779
3780 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3781
3782 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3783 speed up -recurse option.
3784
3785 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3786 yet, but it compiles :-)
3787
3788 * Changed default location for install to
3789 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3790 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3791 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3792 level Makefile.
3793
3794 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3795 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3796 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
