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

1570
1571 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1572 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1573 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC

1590
1591 * Released nmh-0.13.
1592
1593 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1594 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1595 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1596 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1597 to MAXARGS).
1598
1599 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1600 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1601
1602 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1603
1604 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if

1624
1625 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1626 mp->attrstats with macros.
1627
1628 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1629 in msh.c instead.
1630
1631 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1632 to hide dd->dd_fd.
1633
1634 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1635 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1636
1637 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null

1639
1640 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1641
1642 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

1646
1647 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.

1650
1651 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1652 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1653
1654 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1655 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1656
1657 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1658
1659 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1660

1662 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1663
1664 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1665 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

1675
1676 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1677
1678 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1679 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.

1681 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1682 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1683
1684 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1685 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.

1709
1710 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1711
1712 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
1713 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
1714
1715 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1716
1717 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
1718
1719 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
1720 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
1721
1722 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1723
1724 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1725 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1726
1727 * Released nmh-0.08.
1728
1729 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1730 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1731 locking database itself.
1732
1733 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1734
1735 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1736
1737 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1738 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1739 option.
1740
1741 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1742 rather than mmdf format.
1743
1744 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1745 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1746 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1747 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1748
1749 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1750
1751 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1752
1753 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1754 added to packf.
1755
1756 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1757 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1758 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1759
1760 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1761 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1762 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1763
1764 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1765
1766 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1767 can still easily change this in config.h).
1768
1769 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1770 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1771 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1772
1773 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1774
1775 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1776 than tzset and external timezone variable.

1790 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1791
1792 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1793 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1794 on SCO 5.x.
1795
1796 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1797 built-in FTP client in mhn.
1798
1799 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
1800 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
1801
1802 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
1803
1804 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
1805
1806 * Added configure check for tzset.
1807
1808 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1809
1810 * Released nmh-0.06.
1811
1812 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1813 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1814
1815 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1816 many such machines around anymore.
1817
1818 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1819 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1820
1821 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1822 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1823
1824 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1827 pre-generated version if necessary.
1828
1829 * Released nmh-0.05.
1830
1831 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1832 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1833 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1834 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1835
1836 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
1837 be linked in one pass.
1838
1839 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1840
1841 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
1842 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
1843
1844 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1845
1846 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.

1848 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1849
1850 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
1851 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
1852 become the current folder.
1853
1854 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1855

1861 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1862
1863 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
1864 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
1865 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
1866
1867 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1868
1869 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
1870 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
1871
1872 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1873
1874 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
1875 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
1876 using POP.
1877
1878 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
1879 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
1880
1881 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1882
1883 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
1884 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
1885 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
1886 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
1887 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
1888 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
1889
1890 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1891
1892 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
1893 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
1894
1895 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
1896 a file (currently need to specify full path).
1897
1898 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1899
1900 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
1901 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
1902
1903 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1904
1905 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
1906 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
1907 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
1908
1909 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1910
1911 * Released nmh-0.03.
1912
1913 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
1914 .mh_sequence file existed.
1915
1916 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
1917 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
1918
1919 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
1920 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
1921 man page.
1922
1923 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1924

1926 flist man page.
1927
1928 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1929
1930 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
1931 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
1932 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
1933
1934 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1935
1936 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
1937 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
1938 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
1939

1944
1945 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
1946
1947 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1948
1949 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
1950 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
1951 directory from where the source code is located.
1952

1973 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1974
1975 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
1976 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
1977 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
1978 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
1979 rather than in script.
1980
1981 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1982
1983 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
1984
1985 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with

1991 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
1992
1993 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
1994 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
1995 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
1996 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
1997 options if enabled.
1998
1999 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2000
2001 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2002 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2003
2004 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2005 correctly found.
2006
2007 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2008
2009 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2010

2018
2019 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2020
2021 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2022 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2023 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2024 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2025 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses

2030 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2031
2032 * Released nmh-0.01.
2033
2034 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2035 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2036 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2037 have POSIX signals.

2040
2041 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2042 their man pages.
2043
2044 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2045
2046 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2047 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2048
2049 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2050
2051 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2052 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2053 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2054 script to find_program.
2055
2056 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2057
2058 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2059 speed up -recurse option.
2060
2061 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2062 yet, but it compiles :-)
2063
2064 * Changed default location for install to
2065 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2066 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2067 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2068 level Makefile.
2069
2070 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2071 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2072 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
