Add missing create_folder prototype.
[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
2
3 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
4 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
5 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
6
7 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
8
9 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
10 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
11 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
12 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
13 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
14 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
15 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
16 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
17
18 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
19
20 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
21 Content-Disposition header.
22
23 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
24
25 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
26 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
27 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
28 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
29 Build 10.0.3416, in particular, doesn't see attachments in
30 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
31 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
32 users to easily accomodate that by adding
33 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
34
35 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
36
37 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
38 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
39
40 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
41
42 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
43
44 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
45 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
46
47 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
48 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
49
50 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
51
52 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
53 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
54 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
55 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
56 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
57 the signature.
58
59 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
60
61 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
62 widths, restoring right justification feature
63
64 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
65
66 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
67 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
68 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
69
70 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
71 chars fit
72
73 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
74
75 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
76 handling multi column characters.
77
78 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
79
80 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
81
82 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
83
84 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
85 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
86 has been removed.
87
88 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
89
90 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
91
92 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
93
94 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
95 calling realloc.
96
97 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
98
99 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
100 calling malloc.
101
102 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
103
104 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
105 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
106 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
107 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
108
109 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
110
111 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
112 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
113 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
114 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
115 where configure's autodetection fails.
116
117 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
118
119 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
120 configure script change.
121
122 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
123
124 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
125 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
126 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
127 systems with libdb4.
128
129 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
130
131 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
132 the context is only read once.
133
134 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
135
136 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
137 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
138
139 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
140
141 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
142 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
143
144 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
145 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
146 the first one.
147
148 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
149 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
150 annotated messages.
151
152 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
153
154 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
155 vi isn't found during build.
156
157 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
158
159 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
160 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
161
162 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
163 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
164 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
165
166 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
167
168 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
169 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
170
171 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
172 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
173 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
174 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
175 very slow).
176
177 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
178 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
179 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
180
181 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
182 entry in the context file.
183
184 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
185
186 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
187 problems on some systems
188
189 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
190 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
191
192 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
193
194 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
195 sendmail isn't found during build.
196
197 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
198
199 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
200
201 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
202
203 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
204 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
205
206 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
207 references to the web page and mailing list locations
208
209 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
210 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
211
212 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
213 autoconf macros
214
215 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
216
217 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
218 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
219 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
220
221 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
222 was configured with --enable-apop.
223
224 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
225 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
226 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
227
228 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
229 new versions of flex.
230
231 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
232 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
233 doesn't guess wrongly.
234
235 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
236
237 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
238 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
239
240 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
241 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
242
243 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
244 files with numbers as names
245
246 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
247
248 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
249
250 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
251
252 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
253
254 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
255 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
256
257 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
258
259 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
260 vfork on Linux
261
262 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
263 test/report error writing to stdout
264
265 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
266
267 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
268
269 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
270 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
271 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
272
273 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
274 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
275 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
276
277 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
278
279 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
280 character set used by the current locale
281
282 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
283 message's filename overflows an int when converted
284
285 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
286 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
287
288 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
289
290 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
291 the terminal
292
293 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
294
295 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
296 from Michael Richardson.
297
298 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
299 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
300
301 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
302
303 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
304 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
305
306 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
307
308 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
309 find sub-parts of the specified part
310
311 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
312
313 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
314 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
315 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
316 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
317 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
318 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
319 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
320 that path.
321
322 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
323
324 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
325 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
326 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
327 renamed.
328
329 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
330 refiling with -src option.
331
332 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
333
334 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
335
336 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
337
338 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
339 mailpath being overwritten.
340
341 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
342
343 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
344 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
345 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
346 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
347 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
348 reinitializes the tmp file string.
349
350 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
351 if a format string was read from the profile.
352
353 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
354 path for the external hook.
355
356 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
357
358 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
359 another location for ndbm.
360
361 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
362
363 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
364 independent.
365 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
366 to empty folder.
367 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
368
369 Debian Bug#
370 136976 - Handle binary content messages
371 143427 - mh-format.man typo
372 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
373 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
374 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
375 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
376 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
377 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
378 181867 - typo for nmh.man
379
380 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
381
382 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
383 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
384 contitional code which will result in cached data to
385 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
386 and parse on the first use.
387 * Remove some unused flag bits.
388
389 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
390
391 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
392 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
393 * Fixes for bugs
394 #578 - repl leaks umask
395 #1393 - sortm core dumps
396 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
397 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
398 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
399 RFC2822 compliant
400 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
401 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
402
403 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
404
405 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
406 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
407
408 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
409
410 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
411 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
412 to docs/README.about.
413
414 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
415
416 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
417
418 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
419 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
420 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
421 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
422 enough).
423
424 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
425
426 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
427 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
428 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
429 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
430 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
431 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
432 as well.
433
434 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
435 summary configure prints out.
436
437 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
438 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
439 subjectively more readable) format.
440
441 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
442
443 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
444 all nmh commands.
445
446 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
447
448 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
449 19xx when it's not necessary.
450
451 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
452
453 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
454 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
455 roff mark-up.
456
457 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
458 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
459 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
460 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
461 the man pages correctly.
462
463 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
464
465 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
466
467 * Finished manpages ali-prev
468
469 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
470 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
471 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
472 structure.
473
474 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
475 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
476 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
477 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
478
479 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
480
481 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
482 the formatting rules I've been using.
483
484 * Finished ali-inc.
485
486 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
487
488 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
489 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
490 used in the manpages.
491
492 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
493 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
494 read in the contents of the file as the variable
495 $DATE.
496
497 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
498 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
499 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
500 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
501 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
502 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
503 bold flags and italicized parameters.
504
505 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
506
507 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
508 --with-locking option.
509
510 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
511 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
512 information was not being communicated to the
513 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
514 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
515 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
516 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
517 undefined symbols problems.
518
519 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
520 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
521 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
522 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
523 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
524 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
525 for a genuine krb4 installation.
526
527 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
528
529 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
530 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
531
532 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
533
534 * Made a new ./configure option called
535 "--with-locking" that allows the file
536 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
537 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
538
539 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
540 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
541 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
542 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
543 the user that these are the valid options, and
544 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
545 descriptive enough.
546
547 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
548
549 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
550 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
551 committed to supporting flex only, since
552 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
553 string, as well as other problems documented
554 below and on nmh-workers.
555
556 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
557 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
558 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
559 the flag.
560
561 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
562 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
563
564 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
565
566 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
567 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
568 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
569
570 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
571
572 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
573 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
574
575 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
576
577 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
578 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
579 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
580 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
581 couldn't correctly identify them.
582
583 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
584
585 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
586 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
587 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
588 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
589 not depending on an external archive.
590
591 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
592 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
593 mts/generic is no longer built.
594
595 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
596
597 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
598 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
599 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
600 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
601 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
602 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
603 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
604 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
605
606 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
607
608 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
609 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
610 correct.
611
612 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
613
614 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
615 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
616 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
617 now finally mts.
618
619 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
620 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
621 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
622 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
623
624 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
625 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
626 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
627 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
628 merged into the smtp code).
629
630 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
631 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
632 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
633 of it for us.
634
635 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
636 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
637 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
638 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
639 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
640 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
641 in the appropriate Makefile.in
642
643 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
644
645 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
646 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
647 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
648 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
649 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
650 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
651 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
652 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
653 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
654 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
655 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
656
657 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
658
659 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
660 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
661 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
662 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
663 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
664 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
665 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
666 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
667 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
668
669 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
670
671 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
672 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
673 able to access them.
674
675 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
676
677 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
678 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
679
680 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
681
682 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
683 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
684 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
685 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
686
687 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
688
689 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
690 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
691 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
692 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
693 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
694
695 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
696 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
697
698 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
699
700 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
701
702 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
703 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
704 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
705 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
706
707 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
708 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
709 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
710 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
711
712 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
713 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
714 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
715 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
716
717 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
718 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
719 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
720
721 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
722
723 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
724 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
725 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
726 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
727 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
728 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
729 my users.
730
731 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
732 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
733
734 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
735 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
736
737 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
738
739 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
740
741 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
742
743 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
744 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
745 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
746 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
747
748 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
749
750 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
751 be easily changed from "," to "#".
752
753 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
754
755 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
756
757 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
758 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
759 README.developers.
760
761 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
762
763 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
764 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
765 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
766 but not for the subsequent data stream.
767
768 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
769
770 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
771 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
772 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
773 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
774 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
775
776 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
777
778 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
779 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
780
781 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
782 cat, also define lorder as echo.
783
784 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
785
786 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
787
788 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
789 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
790 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
791
792 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
793
794 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
795 #if 0 block).
796
797 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
798 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
799
800 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
801
802 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
803 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
804
805 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
806
807 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
808 inc does not need to be setgid.
809
810 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
811
812 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
813 library, as found on Debian systems.
814
815 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
816
817 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
818
819 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
820 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
821 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
822 case-insensitivity flag.
823
824 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
825
826 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
827 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
828
829 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
830
831 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
832 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
833 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
834 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
835 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
836 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
837 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
838 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
839 getting moved aside).
840
841 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
842 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
843
844 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
845
846 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
847 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
848 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
849 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
850 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
851 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
852 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
853 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
854 the prototype, but never sets it.
855
856 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
857 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
858 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
859 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
860 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
861 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
862
863 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
864 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
865 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
866 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
867 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
868
869 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
870
871 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
872 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
873 of tws.h.
874
875 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
876 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
877 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
878 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
879 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
880 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
881 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
882
883 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
884
885 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
886
887 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
888 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
889 this works on other systems.
890
891 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
892
893 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
894 checks for write failures.
895
896 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
897
898 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
899
900 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
901 is patched in.
902
903 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
904
905 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
906
907 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
908
909 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
910 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
911 a buffer boundary.
912
913 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
914
915 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
916 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
917 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
918 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
919
920 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
921
922 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
923 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
924 place.
925
926 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
927 as well as Makefiles.
928
929 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
930
931 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
932 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
933 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
934 should make maintainability easier.
935
936 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
937 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
938 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
939 whatever you know works.
940
941 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
942
943 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
944 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
945 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
946
947 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
948 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
949 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
950 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
951
952 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
953 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
954 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
955
956 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
957 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
958 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
959 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
960 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
961
962 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
963 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
964 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
965 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
966 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
967 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
968 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
969 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
970 from the BSD version.
971
972 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
973 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
974 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
975
976 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
977 in ruserpass.c also.
978
979 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
980 report:
981
982 This happens on solaris:
983
984 % man mts.conf
985 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
986 No manual entry for mts.conf.
987
988 It is fixed by
989
990 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
991
992 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
993 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
994
995 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
996
997 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
998 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
999 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1000 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1001 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1002 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1003 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1004 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1005 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1006 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1007 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1008
1009 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1010 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1011 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1012 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1013 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1014 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1015 out of nowhere.
1016
1017 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1018 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1019 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1020 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1021 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1022
1023 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1024 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1025
1026 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1027
1028 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1029 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1030 to stdin, such as exmh.
1031
1032 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1033 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1034 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1035 other files.
1036
1037 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1038
1039 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1040 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1041 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1042 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1043 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1044 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1045 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1046
1047 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1048
1049 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1050 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1051
1052 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1053
1054 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1055 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1056
1057 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1058
1059 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1060 --enable-apop.
1061
1062 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1063 along with any -host or -user option.
1064
1065 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1066
1067 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1068
1069 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1070 process was fresh in my mind.
1071
1072 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1073
1074 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1075 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1076
1077 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1078
1079 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1080
1081 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1082 patch:
1083
1084 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1085 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1086 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1087 part of the program's name.
1088
1089 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1090 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1091 to quote.
1092
1093 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1094
1095 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1096 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1097 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1098 single-character format would cause programs using this
1099 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1100 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1101 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1102 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1103 in the array.
1104
1105 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1106
1107 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1108 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1109 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1110 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1111 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1112 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1113
1114 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1115 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1116 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1117 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1118 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1119 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1120 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1121 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1122
1123 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1124 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1125 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1126 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1127 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1128 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1129 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1130 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1131 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1132 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1133
1134 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1135
1136 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1137 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1138
1139 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1140 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1141
1142 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1143 exit 2
1144
1145 and:
1146
1147 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1148
1149 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1150 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1151 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1152 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1153
1154 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1155 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1156 problem in the routine.
1157
1158 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1159
1160 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1161 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1162
1163 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1164 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1165 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1166 spool somehow.
1167
1168 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1169
1170 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1171 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1172 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1173 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1174 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1175 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1176 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1177 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1178 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1179 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1180
1181 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1182
1183 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1184 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1185 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1186 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1187 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1188 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1189 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1190 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1191 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1192 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1193 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1194 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1195
1196 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1197 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1198 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1199 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1200 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1201
1202 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1203 POP is enabled.
1204
1205 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1206
1207 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1208 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1209 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1210 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1211 here.
1212
1213 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1214
1215 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1216
1217 * Applied, after some finessing,
1218 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1219
1220 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1221
1222 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1223
1224 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1225 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1226 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1227 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1228
1229 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1230
1231 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1232 forgetting to do so!).
1233
1234 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1235 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1236 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1237 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1238 arguments to enable all three types.
1239
1240 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1241 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1242
1243 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1244 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1245 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1246 updated copy of mts.conf.
1247
1248 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1249
1250 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1251 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1252 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1253
1254 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1255 and
1256 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1257
1258 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1259 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1260 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1261
1262 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1263 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1264 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1265
1266 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1267 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1268 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1269
1270 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1271
1272 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1273
1274 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1275
1276 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1277
1278 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1279 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1280
1281 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1282 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1283 certain suffix to run properly.
1284
1285 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1286 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1287 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1288
1289 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1290 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1291 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1292 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1293 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1294 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1295 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1296
1297 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1298
1299 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1300 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1301 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1302 until some year far in the future).
1303
1304 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1305
1306 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1307
1308 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1309 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1310
1311 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1312 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1313 corrupted.
1314
1315 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1316
1317 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1318 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1319 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1320 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1321 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1322 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1323
1324 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1325
1326 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1327
1328 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1329 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1330 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1331
1332 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1333 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1334 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1335 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1336 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1337 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1338 leads me to:
1339
1340 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1341 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1342 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1343 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1344 of masquerading individually.
1345
1346 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1347 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1348 GECOS field delimiters.
1349
1350 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1351
1352 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1353 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1354 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1355 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1356 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1357 and explaining the feature.
1358
1359 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1360
1361 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1362 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1363 so).
1364
1365 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1366 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1367 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1368
1369 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1370 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1371 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1372 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1373
1374 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1375 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1376 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1377 anywhere.
1378
1379 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1380
1381 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1382 code to be executed.
1383
1384 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1385
1386 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1387
1388 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1389 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1390 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1391 quotes embedded in them.

1393 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1394
1395 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1396 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1397 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1398 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1399 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1400 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1401 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1402 allowed to specify.
1403
1404 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1405 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1406 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1407 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1408 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1409
1410 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1411
1412 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1413
1414 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1415 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1416 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1417 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1418
1419 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1420 KPOP server.
1421
1422 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1423
1424 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1425
1426 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1427
1428 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1429 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1430 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1431
1432 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1433 mhn.defaults.sh.
1434
1435 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1436
1437 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1438 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1439 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1440 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1441 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1442 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1443
1444 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1445 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1446
1447 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1448
1449 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1450 page.
1451
1452 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1453
1454 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1455 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1456 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1457 to be setgid.
1458
1459 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1460 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1461 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1462 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1463 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1464 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1465 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1466 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1467 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1468 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1469 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1470 processing that post has).
1471
1472 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1473
1474 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1475 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1476 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1477 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1478 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1479 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1480 Solaris 2.6).
1481
1482 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1483
1484 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1485
1486 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1487
1488 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1489
1490 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1491 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1492
1493 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1494 command-line.
1495
1496 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1497
1498 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1499 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1500 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1501 some development.
1502
1503 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1504
1505 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1506 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1507 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1508 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1509 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1510 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1511
1512 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1513
1514 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1515
1516 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1517
1518 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1519 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1520 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1521 caught again. This works for now.
1522
1523 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1524
1525 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1526
1527 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1528 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1529
1530 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1531
1532 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1533 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1534
1535 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1536
1537 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1538
1539 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1540
1541 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1542 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1543
1544 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1545
1546 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1547 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1548 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1549 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1550 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1551 multiple purposes.
1552
1553 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1554
1555 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1556 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1557 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1558
1559 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1560 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1561 config.guess.
1562
1563 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1564
1565 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1566 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1567 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1568
1569 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1570
1571 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1572 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1573
1574 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1575
1576 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1577 distributed.
1578
1579 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1580 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1581
1582 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1583 macros, regardless of platform.
1584
1585 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1586 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1587
1588 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1589 with x-conversions=gzip.
1590
1591 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1592
1593 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1594 post.c.
1595
1596 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1597 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1598 implicit definition of ioctl().
1599
1600 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1601 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1602 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1603 want to mess with them.
1604
1605 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1606
1607 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1608 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1609
1610 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1611 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1612
1613 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1614 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1615 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1616
1617 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1618 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1619 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1620
1621 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1622 function initgroups.
1623
1624 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1625 function.
1626
1627 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1628 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1629 to fix warnings.
1630
1631 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1632 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1633 prevent warnings.
1634
1635 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1636 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1637 statements).
1638
1639
1640 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1641
1642 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1643 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1644 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1645
1646 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1647 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1648
1649 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1650
1651 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1652
1653 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1654 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1655 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1656 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1657
1658 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1659 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1660
1661 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1662
1663 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1664
1665 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1666
1667 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1668 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1669
1670 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1671
1672 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1673 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1674
1675 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1676 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1677 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1678 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1679
1680 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1681 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1682
1683 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1684
1685 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1686 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1687
1688 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1689
1690 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1691 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1692 proper #defines.
1693
1694 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1695
1696 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1697
1698 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1699
1700 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1701 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1702
1703 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1704 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1705 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1706
1707 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1708 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1709 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1710
1711 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1712 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1713 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1714
1715 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1716 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1717 <swb@nconnect.net>.
1718
1719 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1720 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1721
1722 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1723 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1724
1725 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1726 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1727
1728 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1729 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1730 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1731
1732 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1733 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1734
1735 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1736 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1737 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1738
1739 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1740 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1741 <rmg@netapp.com>.
1742
1743 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1744 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1745
1746 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1747 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1748 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1749 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1750
1751 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1752 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1753
1754 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1755
1756 * Released nmh-1.0.
1757
1758 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1759 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1760 would not be changed.
1761
1762 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1763 one from the Apache web server.
1764
1765 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1766 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1767
1768 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1769 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1770 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1771
1772 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1773
1774 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1775
1776 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1777 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1778 verbose printing).
1779
1780 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1781 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1782 removes a bad race condition.
1783
1784 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1785 style drop file.
1786
1787 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1788 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1789 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1790
1791 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1792 sequence information.
1793
1794 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1795 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1796
1797 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1798 count.
1799
1800 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1801 is empty.
1802
1803 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1804
1805 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1806 interpret 034 as octal.
1807
1808 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1809
1810 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1811 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1812
1813 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1814 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1815
1816 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1817 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1818
1819 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1820 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1821
1822 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1823 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1824
1825 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1826 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1827 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1828
1829 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1830 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1831 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1832
1833 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1834
1835 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1836
1837 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1838 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1839 file "mhoutsbr.c".
1840
1841 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1842
1843 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1844 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1845
1846 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1847 header field information.
1848
1849 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1850 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1851
1852 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1853 values when parsing a content.
1854
1855 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1856 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1857
1858 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1859 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1860
1861 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1862 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1863
1864 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1865 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1866
1867 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1868
1869 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1870
1871 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1872
1873 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1874
1875 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1876 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1877 read.
1878
1879 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1880 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1881
1882 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1883 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1884 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1885 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1886 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1887 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1888 be setuid/setgid.
1889
1890 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1891
1892 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1893 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1894 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1895
1896 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1897 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1898
1899 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1900
1901 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1902 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1903 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1904 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1905
1906 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1907 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1908 fix).
1909
1910 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1911 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1912 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1913 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1914 arguments.
1915
1916 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1917
1918 * Released nmh-0.27.
1919
1920 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1921 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1922
1923 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1924 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1925 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1926 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1927 with no arguments.
1928
1929 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1930 mhbuild returns an error.
1931
1932 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1933 rename the draft file.
1934
1935 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1936 use a global variable.
1937
1938 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1939 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1940
1941 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1942 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1943
1944 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1945 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1946 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1947
1948 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1949 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1950
1951 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1952 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1953 this new page.
1954
1955 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1956 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1957 viamail program.
1958
1959 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1960 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1961
1962 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1963 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1964 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1965
1966 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1967 to new function output_content_folder.
1968
1969 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1970 new function output_content_file.
1971
1972 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1973 to new function parse_format_string.
1974
1975 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1976 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1977 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1978 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1979
1980 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1981 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1982 message/external file from ftp.
1983
1984 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1985 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1986 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1987
1988 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1989 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1990 mhfree.c.
1991
1992 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1993 file mhshowsbr.c.
1994
1995 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1996 new file mhstoresbr.c
1997
1998 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1999 file mhparse.c.
2000
2001 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2002 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2003
2004 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2005 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2006
2007 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2008 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2009 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2010
2011 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2012
2013 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2014
2015 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2016 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2017 to main().
2018
2019 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2020 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2021
2022 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2023 to mhparse.c).
2024
2025 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2026
2027 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2028
2029 * Released nmh-0.26.
2030
2031 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2032 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2033 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2034 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2035
2036 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2037 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2038 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2039 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2040 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2041
2042 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2043 But it is not on by default.
2044
2045 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2046 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2047
2048 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2049
2050 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2051
2052 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2053
2054 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2055
2056 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2057 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2058
2059 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2060
2061 * Released nmh-0.25.
2062
2063 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2064 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2065 uses the original name of the library.
2066
2067 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2068 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2069 links remaining.
2070
2071 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2072 list_content and list_debug.
2073
2074 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2075
2076 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2077 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2078
2079 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2080
2081 * Released nmh-0.24.
2082
2083 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2084
2085 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2086 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2087
2088 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2089 large sequence line.
2090
2091 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2092
2093 * Released nmh-0.23.
2094
2095 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2096
2097 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2098 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2099 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2100 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2101
2102 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2103 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2104 file h/mhnsbr.h.
2105
2106 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2107
2108 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2109
2110 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2111
2112 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2113 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2114
2115 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2116 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2117
2118 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2119 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2120
2121 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2122 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2123
2124 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2125
2126 * Released nmh-0.22.
2127
2128 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2129 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2130
2131 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2132
2133 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2134 mh-profile(5) man page.
2135
2136 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2137 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2138
2139 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2140
2141 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2142
2143 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2144 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2145
2146 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2147
2148 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2149 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2150 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2151
2152 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2153 source message on the standard input.
2154
2155 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2156
2157 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2158 rather than -rfc934mode.
2159
2160 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2161 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2162 only one message.
2163
2164 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2165 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2166
2167 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2168 it is still needed.
2169
2170 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2171
2172 * Released nmh-0.21.
2173
2174 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2175 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2176
2177 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2178 encoding to use.
2179
2180 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2181 to use for text contents.
2182
2183 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2184
2185 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2186
2187 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2188
2189 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2190
2191 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2192 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2193
2194 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2195 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2196 spaces between encoded word are.
2197
2198 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2199
2200 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2201 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2202
2203 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2204 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2205 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2206
2207 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2208
2209 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2210 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2211
2212 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2213
2214 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2215
2216 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2217 ISO-8859-X character set.
2218
2219 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2220 pager more.
2221
2222 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2223 permissions, not write permissions.
2224
2225 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2226 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2227
2228 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2229 distribution.
2230
2231 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2232
2233 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2234
2235 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2236 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2237
2238 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2239 message contains valid character set.
2240
2241 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2242 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2243
2244 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2245 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2246
2247 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2248 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2249 between an encoded word and normal text.
2250
2251 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2252 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2253
2254 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2255 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2256
2257 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2258 and -help.
2259
2260 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2261 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2262 loops).
2263
2264 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2265 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2266
2267 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2268 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2269
2270 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2271
2272 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2273
2274 * Released nmh-0.20.
2275
2276 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2277
2278 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2279
2280 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2281 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2282 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2283
2284 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2285 and the To: line was missing.
2286
2287 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2288
2289 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2290
2291 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2292
2293 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2294 watch the POP transaction.
2295
2296 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2297 first, and use it if available.
2298
2299 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2300 first, and use it if available.
2301
2302 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2303
2304 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2305
2306 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2307 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2308 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2309 sequence line.
2310
2311 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2312 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2313 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2314
2315 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2316 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2317 lines.
2318
2319 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2320
2321 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2322 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2323
2324 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2325
2326 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2327 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2328
2329 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2330 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2331 message to which you are replying.
2332
2333 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2334 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2335 making group replies.
2336
2337 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2338
2339 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2340
2341 * Released nmh-0.19.
2342
2343 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2344 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2345
2346 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2347 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2348 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2349 to the end of the man page.
2350
2351 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2352 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2353 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2354 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2355 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2356 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2357
2358 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2359 pages.
2360
2361 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2362 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2363 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2364
2365 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2366 the next available number above the message number you wish
2367 to preserve.
2368
2369 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2370 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2371
2372 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2373 file sbr/seq_print.c
2374
2375 * flist will now update the current folder.
2376
2377 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2378 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2379 but now undocumented.
2380
2381 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2382 traversing folders.
2383
2384 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2385 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2386
2387 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2388
2389 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2390 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2391
2392 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2393
2394 * Released nmh-0.18.
2395
2396 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2397 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2398 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2399
2400 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2401 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2402
2403 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2404 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2405 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2406 previous public/private status.
2407
2408 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2409 correctly.
2410
2411 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2412 private sequences).
2413
2414 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2415 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2416 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2417
2418 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2419 take option to determine whether it should get current
2420 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2421 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2422
2423 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2424
2425 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2426 wait for stopped processes.
2427
2428 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2429 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2430
2431 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2432
2433 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2434
2435 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2436 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2437
2438 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2439 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2440
2441 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2442 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2443 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2444 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2445
2446 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2447 status allocation).
2448
2449 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2450 the code.
2451
2452 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2453
2454 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2455 the debugging output.
2456
2457 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2458 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2459
2460 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2461
2462 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2463
2464 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2465 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2466
2467 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2468
2469 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2470 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2471 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2472 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2473 in the given sequence.
2474
2475 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2476 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2477 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2478 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2479 subdirectories of a given directory.
2480
2481 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2482 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2483 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2484
2485 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2486 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2487
2488 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2489
2490 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2491 to 0700 (was 0711).
2492
2493 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2494 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2495 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2496
2497 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2498 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2499 are calculated at runtime.
2500
2501 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2502
2503 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2504
2505 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2506 about checking for global mh.profile.
2507
2508 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2509 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2510 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2511 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2512 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2513 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2514
2515 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2516 adding message to folder itself.
2517
2518 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2519 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2520 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2521 instead of exiting.
2522
2523 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2524 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2525 the error EEXIST.
2526
2527 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2528 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2529 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2530
2531 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2532 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2533
2534 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2535 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2536 code to use it yet).
2537
2538 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2539
2540 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2541
2542 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2543 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2544
2545 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2546 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2547
2548 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2549
2550 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2551 to folder_addmsg.c
2552
2553 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2554
2555 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2556
2557 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2558
2559 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2560
2561 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2562 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2563
2564 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2565
2566 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2567
2568 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2569
2570 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2571
2572 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2573
2574 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2575 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2576
2577 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2578 configuration files.
2579
2580 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2581
2582 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2583
2584 * Released nmh-0.17.
2585
2586 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2587
2588 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2589 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2590
2591 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2592 defined.
2593
2594 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2595 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2596
2597 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2598 number of refiled message.
2599
2600 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2601
2602 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2603 for return value of wait().
2604
2605 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2606
2607 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2608
2609 * Released nmh-0.16.
2610
2611 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2612
2613 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2614
2615 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2616 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2617 deal with binary messages, yet).
2618
2619 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2620
2621 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2622
2623 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2624 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2625 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2626 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2627 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2628 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2629
2630 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2631 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2632
2633 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2634 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2635
2636 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2637 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2638 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2639
2640 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2641
2642 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2643
2644 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2645 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2646 composition files.
2647
2648 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2649 files.
2650
2651 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2652
2653 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2654 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2655 which used unsigned chars by default.
2656
2657 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2658
2659 * Released nmh-0.15.
2660
2661 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2662 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2663
2664 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2665
2666 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2667
2668 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2669 return 0.
2670
2671 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2672 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2673 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2674
2675 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2676 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2677
2678 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2679
2680 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2681 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2682
2683 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2684 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2685 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2686 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2687
2688 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2689 and put in own subroutine.
2690
2691 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2692 and put in own subroutine.
2693
2694 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2695 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2696 refile.c to use new routine.
2697
2698 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2699
2700 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2701
2702 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2703 seq_getnum.
2704
2705 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2706 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2707 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2708
2709 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2710 no longer used.
2711
2712 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2713 adding message to sequence.
2714
2715 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2716 corresponding file in sbr.
2717
2718 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2719 file in sbr.
2720
2721 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2722
2723 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2724 all selected messages from a sequence.
2725
2726 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2727 selected messages to a sequence.
2728
2729 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2730 and m_seqok.c.

2736
2737 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2738
2739 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2740 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2741
2742 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2743
2744 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2745 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2746
2747 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2748
2749 * Released nmh-0.14.
2750
2751 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2752 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2753
2754 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2755
2756 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2757 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2758 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2759 environment variable.
2760
2761 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2762 draft folder facility in nmh.
2763
2764 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2765 to fmt_compile.h.
2766
2767 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2768 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2769 fmt_addr.c.
2770
2771 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2772 options.
2773

2775
2776 * Released nmh-0.13.
2777
2778 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2779 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2780 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2781 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2782 to MAXARGS).
2783
2784 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2785 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2786
2787 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2788
2789 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2790 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2791
2792 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2793
2794 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2795 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2796
2797 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2798
2799 * Released nmh-0.12.
2800
2801 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2802
2803 * Released nmh-0.11.
2804
2805 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2806
2807 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2808 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2809
2810 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2811 mp->attrstats with macros.
2812
2813 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2814 in msh.c instead.
2815
2816 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2817 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2818
2819 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2820 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2821
2822 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2823 will suppress the display of the message header.
2824
2825 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2826
2827 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2828 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2829
2830 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2831
2832 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2833
2834 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2835
2836 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2837 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2838
2839 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2840 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2841
2842 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2843
2844 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2845
2846 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2847 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2848
2849 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2850 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2851
2852 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2853
2854 * Released nmh-0.10.

2859 by default.
2860
2861 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2862
2863 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2864 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2865
2866 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2867 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2868
2869 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2870 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2871
2872 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2873
2874 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2875 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2876
2877 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2878
2879 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2880 of missing tabs in regex.
2881
2882 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2884 * Released nmh-0.09.
2885
2886 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2887
2888 * Add configure check for killpg.
2889
2890 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
2891 <sys/ioctl.h>.
2892
2893 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2894
2895 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2896
2897 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2898 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2899
2900 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2901
2902 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2903
2904 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2905 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2906
2907 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2908
2909 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2910 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2911
2912 * Released nmh-0.08.
2913
2914 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2915 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2916 locking database itself.
2917
2918 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2919
2920 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2921
2922 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2923 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2924 option.
2925
2926 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2927 rather than mmdf format.
2928
2929 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2930 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2931 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2932 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2933
2934 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2935
2936 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2937
2938 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2939 added to packf.
2940
2941 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2942 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2943 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2944
2945 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2946 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2947 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2948
2949 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2950
2951 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2952 can still easily change this in config.h).
2953
2954 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2955 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2956 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2957
2958 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2959
2960 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2961 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2962
2963 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2964
2965 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2966
2967 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
2968 the suffix.
2969
2970 * Released nmh-0.07.
2971
2972 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2973
2974 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2975 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2976
2977 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2978 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2979 on SCO 5.x.
2980
2981 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2982 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2983
2984 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2985 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2986
2987 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2988
2989 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2990
2991 * Added configure check for tzset.
2992
2993 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2994
2995 * Released nmh-0.06.
2996
2997 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2998 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2999
3000 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3001 many such machines around anymore.
3002
3003 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3004 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3005
3006 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3007 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3008
3009 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3010
3011 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3012 pre-generated version if necessary.
3013
3014 * Released nmh-0.05.
3015
3016 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3017 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3018 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3019 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3020
3021 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3022 be linked in one pass.
3023
3024 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3025
3026 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3027 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3028
3029 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3030
3031 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3032
3033 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3034
3035 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3036 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3037 become the current folder.
3038
3039 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3040
3041 * Released nmh-0.04.
3042
3043 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3044 it.
3045
3046 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3047
3048 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3049 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3050 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3051
3052 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3053
3054 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3055 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3056
3057 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3058
3059 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3060 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3061 using POP.
3062
3063 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3064 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3065
3066 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3067
3068 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3069 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3070 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3071 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3072 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3073 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3074
3075 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3076
3077 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3078 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3079
3080 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3081 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3082
3083 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3084
3085 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3086 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3087
3088 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3089
3090 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3091 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3092 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3093
3094 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3095
3096 * Released nmh-0.03.
3097
3098 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3099 .mh_sequence file existed.
3100
3101 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3102 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3103
3104 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3105 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3106 man page.
3107
3108 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3109
3110 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3111 flist man page.
3112
3113 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3114
3115 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3116 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3117 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3118
3119 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3120
3121 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3122 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3123 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3124
3125 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3126
3127 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3128 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3129
3130 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3131
3132 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3133
3134 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3135 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3136 directory from where the source code is located.
3137
3138 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3139
3140 * Released nmh-0.02.
3141
3142 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3143
3144 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3145 and rcvtty.
3146
3147 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3148
3149 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3150 and sys_nerr directly.
3151
3152 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3153
3154 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3155
3156 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3157
3158 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3159
3160 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3161 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3162 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3163 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3164 rather than in script.
3165
3166 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3167
3168 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3169
3170 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3171 macro defined on Solaris.
3172
3173 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3174
3175 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3176 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3177
3178 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3179 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3180 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3181 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3182 options if enabled.
3183
3184 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3185
3186 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3187 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3188
3189 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3190 correctly found.
3191
3192 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3193
3194 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3195
3196 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3197 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3198
3199 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3200
3201 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3202 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3203
3204 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3205
3206 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3207 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3208 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3209 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3210 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3211 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3212
3213 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3214
3215 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3216
3217 * Released nmh-0.01.
3218
3219 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3220 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3221 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3222 have POSIX signals.
3223
3224 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3225
3226 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3227 their man pages.
3228
3229 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3230
3231 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3232 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3233
3234 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3235
3236 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3237 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3238 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3239 script to find_program.
3240
3241 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3242
3243 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3244 speed up -recurse option.
3245
3246 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3247 yet, but it compiles :-)
3248
3249 * Changed default location for install to
3250 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3251 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3252 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3253 level Makefile.
3254
3255 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3256 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3257 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
