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

1533 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1534 number of refiled message.
1535
1536 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1537
1538 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1539 for return value of wait().

1541 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1542
1543 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1545 * Released nmh-0.16.
1546
1547 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1548
1549 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1550
1551 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1552 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1553 deal with binary messages, yet).
1554
1555 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1556
1557 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1558
1559 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1560 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1561 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1562 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1563 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1564 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1565
1566 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1567 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1568
1569 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1570 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1571
1572 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1573 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1574 MH-6.8.4 patch).
1575
1576 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1577
1578 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1579
1580 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1581 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1582 composition files.
1583
1584 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1585 files.
1586
1587 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1588
1589 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1590 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1591 which used unsigned chars by default.
1592
1593 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1594
1595 * Released nmh-0.15.
1596
1597 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1598 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
1599
1600 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1601
1602 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1603
1604 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1605 return 0.
1606
1607 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1608 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1609 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1610
1611 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1612 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1613
1614 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1615
1616 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1617 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1618
1619 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1620 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1621 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1622 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1623
1624 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1625 and put in own subroutine.
1626
1627 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1628 and put in own subroutine.
1629
1630 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1631 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1632 refile.c to use new routine.
1633

1635
1636 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1637
1638 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1639 seq_getnum.
1640
1641 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1642 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1643 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1644
1645 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1646 no longer used.
1647
1648 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1649 adding message to sequence.
1650
1651 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1652 corresponding file in sbr.
1653
1654 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1655 file in sbr.
1656
1657 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1658
1659 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1660 all selected messages from a sequence.
1661
1662 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1663 selected messages to a sequence.
1664
1665 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1666 and m_seqok.c.

1681 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
1682
1683 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1684
1685 * Released nmh-0.14.

1687 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
1688 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1689
1690 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1691
1692 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1693 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1694 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1695 environment variable.
1696
1697 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1698 draft folder facility in nmh.
1699
1700 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
1701 to fmt_compile.h.
1702
1703 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
1704 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
1705 fmt_addr.c.
1706
1707 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1708 options.
1709
1710 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1711
1712 * Released nmh-0.13.
1713
1714 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1715 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1716 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1717 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1718 to MAXARGS).
1719
1720 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1721 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1722
1723 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1724
1725 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1726 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1727
1728 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1729
1730 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1731 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
1732
1733 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1734
1735 * Released nmh-0.12.
1736
1737 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.

1740
1741 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1742
1743 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1744 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1745
1746 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1747 mp->attrstats with macros.
1748
1749 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1750 in msh.c instead.
1751
1752 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1753 to hide dd->dd_fd.
1754
1755 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1756 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1757
1758 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1759 will suppress the display of the message header.
1760
1761 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1762
1763 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1764 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1765
1766 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1767
1768 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1769
1770 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1771
1772 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1773 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1774
1775 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1776 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1777
1778 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1779
1780 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1781
1782 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1783 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1784
1785 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1786 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

1788 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1789
1790 * Released nmh-0.10.

1795 by default.
1796
1797 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1798
1799 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1800 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1801
1802 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1803 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1804
1805 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1806 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
1807
1808 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1809
1810 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1811 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1812
1813 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1814
1815 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
1816 of missing tabs in regex.
1817

1820 * Released nmh-0.09.
1821
1822 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
1823
1824 * Add configure check for killpg.
1825
1826 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and

1828
1829 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
1830
1831 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1832
1833 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
1834 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
1835
1836 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1837
1838 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
1839
1840 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
1841 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
1842
1843 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1844
1845 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
1846 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
1847
1848 * Released nmh-0.08.
1849
1850 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
1851 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
1852 locking database itself.
1853
1854 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1855
1856 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
1857
1858 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
1859 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
1860 option.
1861
1862 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
1863 rather than mmdf format.
1864
1865 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
1866 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
1867 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
1868 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
1869
1870 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
1871
1872 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1873
1874 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
1875 added to packf.
1876
1877 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1878 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1879 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
1880
1881 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
1882 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
1883 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
1884
1885 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1886
1887 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
1888 can still easily change this in config.h).
1889
1890 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
1891 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
1892 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
1893
1894 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1895
1896 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
1897 than tzset and external timezone variable.
1898
1899 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1900
1901 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

1907
1908 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1909
1910 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
1911 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
1912
1913 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
1914 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
1915 on SCO 5.x.
1916
1917 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
1918 built-in FTP client in mhn.
1919
1920 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
1921 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
1922
1923 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
1924
1925 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
1926
1927 * Added configure check for tzset.
1928
1929 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1930
1931 * Released nmh-0.06.
1932
1933 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
1934 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
1935
1936 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
1937 many such machines around anymore.
1938
1939 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
1940 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
1941
1942 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
1943 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
1944
1945 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1946
1947 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
1948 pre-generated version if necessary.
1949
1950 * Released nmh-0.05.
1951
1952 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
1953 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
1954 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
1955 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
1956
1957 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
1958 be linked in one pass.
1959
1960 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1961
1962 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
1963 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
1964
1965 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1966
1967 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
1968
1969 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1970
1971 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
1972 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
1973 become the current folder.
1974
1975 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1976
1977 * Released nmh-0.04.
1978

1980 it.
1981
1982 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1983
1984 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
1985 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
1986 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
1987
1988 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1989
1990 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
1991 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
1992
1993 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1994
1995 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
1996 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
1997 using POP.
1998
1999 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2000 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2001
2002 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2003
2004 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2005 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2006 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2007 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2008 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2009 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2010
2011 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2012
2013 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2014 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2015
2016 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from

2024 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2025
2026 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2027 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2028 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2029
2030 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2032 * Released nmh-0.03.
2033
2034 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2035 .mh_sequence file existed.
2036
2037 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2038 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2039
2040 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2041 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2042 man page.
2043
2044 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2045

2048
2049 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2050
2051 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2052 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2053 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.

2055 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2056

2058 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2059 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2060
2061 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2062

2065
2066 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2067
2068 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2069
2070 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2071 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2072 directory from where the source code is located.
2073
2074 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2096 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2097 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2098 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path

2100 rather than in script.
2101
2102 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2103
2104 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2105
2106 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2107 macro defined on Solaris.
2108
2109 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2110
2111 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2112 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2113
2114 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2115 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2116 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2117 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2118 options if enabled.
2119
2120 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2121
2122 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2123 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2124
2125 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2126 correctly found.
2127
2128 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2129
2130 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2131
2132 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2133 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2134
2135 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2136
2137 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2138 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2139
2140 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2141
2142 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2143 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2144 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2145 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2146 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2147 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2148
2149 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2150
2151 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2152
2153 * Released nmh-0.01.
2154
2155 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2156 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2157 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2158 have POSIX signals.
2159
2160 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2161
2162 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2163 their man pages.
2164
2165 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2166
2167 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2168 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2169
2170 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2171
2172 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2173 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2174 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2175 script to find_program.
2176
2177 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2178
2179 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2180 speed up -recurse option.
2181
2182 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2183 yet, but it compiles :-)
2184
2185 * Changed default location for install to
2186 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2187 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2188 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2189 level Makefile.
2190
2191 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2192 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2193 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
