1 2006-02-25 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
3 * uip/sendsbr.c: replaced st_mtim with st_mtime, that's what
4 it should have been. Added #include of h/tws.h to pick up
7 2006-02-20 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
9 * h/mh.h, h/prototypes.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/send.c,
10 uip/sendsbr.c, uip/viamail.c, uip/whatnowsbr.c, man/send.man:
11 added -attachformat switch to send, to support alternate MIME
12 header contents when using -attach. See send man page for
15 * man/mhbuild.man: wrapped one appearance of "Content-Disposition"
16 with quotes, to be consistent with others.
18 2006-02-20 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
20 * h/utils.h, sbr/utils.c, uip/flist.c, uip/folder.c: Move duplicate
21 function num_digits into utils.c
23 2006-02-19 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
25 * sbr/m_draft.c, sbr/utils.c, uip/folder.c, uip/inc.c,
26 uip/mhstoresbr.c, uip/popi.c, uip/refile.c: Add create_folder()
27 function, replacing duplicate code during folder creation.
29 2006-02-18 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
31 * h/mime.h, h/mhparse.h, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, uip/mhfree.c,
32 man/mhbuild.man, docs/TODO: added support for an optional
33 Content-Disposition header in mhbuild (only). Its contents
34 are supplied between {}, positioned after the optional [], in
35 a mhbuild directive. If the contents do not contain a
36 "filename=" parameter, and the directive has a filename, or
37 something else that ends with "name=", then that will be used
38 to add a "filename=" parameter to the header.
40 2006-02-12 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
42 * docs/TODO: added RFC2183 to reference of RFC1806 for
43 Content-Disposition header.
45 2006-01-31 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
47 * uip/mhbuild.c, uip/mhbuildsbr.c, man/mhbuild.man: added
48 -nocontentid switch, to disable generation of Content-ID:
49 header in MIME messages. (Also added -contentid for
50 symmetry.) The default configuration of Microsoft Outlook,
51 Build 10.0.3416 in particular, doesn't see attachments in
52 incoming messages if there are Content-ID headers, see
53 http://home.cwru.edu/~wrv/eudoraoutlookfix.html. This allows
54 users to easily accomodate that by adding
55 mhbuild: -nocontentid to their .mh_profile.
57 2006-01-29 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
59 * bug 4360: uip/replsbr.c: remove trailing newlines from components
60 to fix bug with spaces at the end of Subject/References in replies
62 2006-01-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
64 * configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING for formatting help messages
66 * configure.in, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add autoconf magic to support
67 old systems that don't support multibyte character sets
69 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: fix bug with insertion of newline being wrong if
70 the num function was used at the end of the format buffer
72 2006-01-17 David Levine <levinedl@acm.org>
74 * uip/post.c, uip/spost.c: in make_bcc_file (), use same
75 logic as in finish_headers () to detect whether there is an
76 existing From: line in the draft. If draft_from masquerade
77 flag is enabled, this allows the From: to be obeyed in the
78 Bcc, instead of the old behavior of always replacing it with
81 2006-01-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
83 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: more robust multi-byte/column support for field
84 widths, restoring right justification feature
86 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
88 * h/aliasbr.h, h/rcvmail.h, man/Makefile.in, man/slocal.man,
89 sbr/lock_file.c, uip/aliasbr.c, uip/dropsbr.c, uip/post.c,
90 uip/slocal.c, man/mh-mts.man: remove remnants of code for MMDF
92 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
95 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
97 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
98 handling multi column characters.
100 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
102 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
104 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
106 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
107 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
110 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
112 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
114 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
116 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
119 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
121 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
124 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
126 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
127 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
128 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
129 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
131 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
133 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
134 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
135 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
136 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
137 where configure's autodetection fails.
139 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
141 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
142 configure script change.
144 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
146 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
147 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
148 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
151 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
153 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
154 the context is only read once.
156 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
158 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
159 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
161 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
163 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
164 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
166 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
167 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
170 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
171 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
174 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
176 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
177 vi isn't found during build.
179 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
181 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
182 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
184 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
185 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
186 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
188 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
190 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
191 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
193 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
194 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
195 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
196 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
199 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
200 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
201 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
203 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
204 entry in the context file.
206 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
208 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
209 problems on some systems
211 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
212 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
214 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
216 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
217 sendmail isn't found during build.
219 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
221 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
223 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
225 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
226 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
228 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
229 references to the web page and mailing list locations
231 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
232 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
234 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
237 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
239 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
240 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
241 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
243 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
244 was configured with --enable-apop.
246 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
247 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
248 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
250 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
251 new versions of flex.
253 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
254 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
255 doesn't guess wrongly.
257 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
259 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
260 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
262 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
263 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
265 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
266 files with numbers as names
268 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
270 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
272 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
274 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
276 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
277 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
279 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
281 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
284 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
285 test/report error writing to stdout
287 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
289 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
291 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
292 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
293 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
295 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
296 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
297 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
299 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
301 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
302 character set used by the current locale
304 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
305 message's filename overflows an int when converted
307 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
308 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
310 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
312 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
315 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
317 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
318 from Michael Richardson.
320 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
321 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
323 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
325 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
326 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
328 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
330 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
331 find sub-parts of the specified part
333 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
335 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
336 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
337 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
338 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
339 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
340 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
341 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
344 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
346 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
347 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
348 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
351 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
352 refiling with -src option.
354 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
356 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
358 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
360 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
361 mailpath being overwritten.
363 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
365 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
366 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
367 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
368 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
369 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
370 reinitializes the tmp file string.
372 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
373 if a format string was read from the profile.
375 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
376 path for the external hook.
378 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
380 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
381 another location for ndbm.
383 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
385 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
387 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
389 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
392 136976 - Handle binary content messages
393 143427 - mh-format.man typo
394 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
395 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
396 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
397 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
398 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
399 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
400 181867 - typo for nmh.man
402 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
404 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
405 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
406 contitional code which will result in cached data to
407 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
408 and parse on the first use.
409 * Remove some unused flag bits.
411 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
413 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
414 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
416 #578 - repl leaks umask
417 #1393 - sortm core dumps
418 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
419 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
420 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
422 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
423 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
425 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
427 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
428 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
430 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
432 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
433 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
434 to docs/README.about.
436 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
438 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
440 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
441 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
442 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
443 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
446 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
448 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
449 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
450 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
451 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
452 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
453 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
456 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
457 summary configure prints out.
459 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
460 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
461 subjectively more readable) format.
463 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
465 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
468 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
470 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
471 19xx when it's not necessary.
473 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
475 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
476 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
479 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
480 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
481 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
482 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
483 the man pages correctly.
485 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
487 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
489 * Finished manpages ali-prev
491 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
492 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
493 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
496 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
497 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
498 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
499 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
501 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
503 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
504 the formatting rules I've been using.
508 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
510 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
511 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
512 used in the manpages.
514 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
515 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
516 read in the contents of the file as the variable
519 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
520 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
521 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
522 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
523 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
524 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
525 bold flags and italicized parameters.
527 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
529 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
530 --with-locking option.
532 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
533 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
534 information was not being communicated to the
535 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
536 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
537 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
538 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
539 undefined symbols problems.
541 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
542 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
543 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
544 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
545 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
546 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
547 for a genuine krb4 installation.
549 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
551 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
552 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
554 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
556 * Made a new ./configure option called
557 "--with-locking" that allows the file
558 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
559 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
561 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
562 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
563 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
564 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
565 the user that these are the valid options, and
566 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
569 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
571 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
572 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
573 committed to supporting flex only, since
574 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
575 string, as well as other problems documented
576 below and on nmh-workers.
578 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
579 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
580 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
583 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
584 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
586 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
588 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
589 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
590 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
592 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
594 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
595 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
597 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
599 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
600 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
601 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
602 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
603 couldn't correctly identify them.
605 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
607 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
608 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
609 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
610 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
611 not depending on an external archive.
613 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
614 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
615 mts/generic is no longer built.
617 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
619 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
620 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
621 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
622 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
623 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
624 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
625 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
626 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
628 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
630 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
631 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
634 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
636 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
637 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
638 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
641 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
642 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
643 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
644 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
646 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
647 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
648 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
649 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
650 merged into the smtp code).
652 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
653 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
654 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
657 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
658 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
659 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
660 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
661 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
662 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
663 in the appropriate Makefile.in
665 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
667 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
668 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
669 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
670 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
671 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
672 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
673 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
674 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
675 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
676 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
677 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
679 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
681 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
682 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
683 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
684 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
685 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
686 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
687 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
688 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
689 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
691 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
693 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
694 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
697 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
699 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
700 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
702 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
704 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
705 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
706 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
707 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
709 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
711 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
712 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
713 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
714 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
715 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
717 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
718 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
720 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
722 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
724 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
725 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
726 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
727 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
729 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
730 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
731 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
732 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
734 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
735 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
736 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
737 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
739 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
740 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
741 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
743 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
745 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
746 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
747 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
748 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
749 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
750 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
753 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
754 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
756 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
757 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
759 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
761 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
763 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
765 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
766 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
767 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
768 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
770 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
772 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
773 be easily changed from "," to "#".
775 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
777 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
779 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
780 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
783 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
785 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
786 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
787 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
788 but not for the subsequent data stream.
790 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
792 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
793 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
794 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
795 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
796 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
798 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
800 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
801 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
803 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
804 cat, also define lorder as echo.
806 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
808 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
810 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
811 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
812 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
814 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
816 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
819 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
820 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
822 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
824 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
825 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
827 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
829 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
830 inc does not need to be setgid.
832 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
834 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
835 library, as found on Debian systems.
837 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
839 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
841 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
842 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
843 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
844 case-insensitivity flag.
846 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
848 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
849 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
851 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
853 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
854 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
855 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
856 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
857 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
858 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
859 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
860 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
861 getting moved aside).
863 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
864 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
866 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
868 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
869 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
870 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
871 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
872 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
873 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
874 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
875 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
876 the prototype, but never sets it.
878 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
879 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
880 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
881 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
882 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
883 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
885 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
886 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
887 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
888 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
889 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
891 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
893 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
894 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
897 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
898 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
899 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
900 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
901 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
902 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
903 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
905 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
907 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
909 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
910 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
911 this works on other systems.
913 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
915 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
916 checks for write failures.
918 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
920 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
922 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
925 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
927 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
929 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
931 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
932 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
935 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
937 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
938 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
939 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
940 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
942 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
944 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
945 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
948 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
949 as well as Makefiles.
951 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
953 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
954 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
955 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
956 should make maintainability easier.
958 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
959 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
960 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
961 whatever you know works.
963 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
965 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
966 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
967 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
969 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
970 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
971 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
972 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
974 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
975 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
976 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
978 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
979 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
980 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
981 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
982 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
984 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
985 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
986 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
987 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
988 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
989 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
990 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
991 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
992 from the BSD version.
994 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
995 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
996 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
998 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
1001 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
1004 This happens on solaris:
1007 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
1008 No manual entry for mts.conf.
1012 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
1014 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
1015 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
1017 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1019 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
1020 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
1021 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
1022 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
1023 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
1024 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
1025 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
1026 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
1027 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
1028 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
1029 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
1031 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
1032 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
1033 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
1034 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
1035 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
1036 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
1039 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
1040 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
1041 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
1042 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
1043 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
1045 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
1046 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
1048 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1050 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
1051 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
1052 to stdin, such as exmh.
1054 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
1055 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
1056 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
1059 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1061 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
1062 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
1063 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
1064 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
1065 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
1066 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
1067 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
1069 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1071 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
1072 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
1074 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1076 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
1077 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
1079 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
1081 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
1084 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
1085 along with any -host or -user option.
1087 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1089 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1091 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1092 process was fresh in my mind.
1094 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1096 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1097 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1099 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1101 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1103 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1106 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1107 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1108 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1109 part of the program's name.
1111 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1112 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1115 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1117 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1118 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1119 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1120 single-character format would cause programs using this
1121 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1122 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1123 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1124 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1127 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1129 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1130 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1131 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1132 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1133 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1134 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1136 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1137 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1138 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1139 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1140 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1141 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1142 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1143 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1145 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1146 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1147 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1148 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1149 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1150 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1151 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1152 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1153 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1154 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1156 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1158 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1159 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1161 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1162 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1164 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1169 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1171 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1172 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1173 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1174 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1176 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1177 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1178 problem in the routine.
1180 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1182 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1183 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1185 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1186 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1187 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1190 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1192 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1193 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1194 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1195 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1196 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1197 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1198 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1199 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1200 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1201 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1203 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1205 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1206 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1207 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1208 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1209 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1210 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1211 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1212 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1213 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1214 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1215 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1216 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1218 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1219 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1220 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1221 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1222 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1224 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1227 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1229 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1230 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1231 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1232 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1235 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1237 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1239 * Applied, after some finessing,
1240 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1242 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1244 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1246 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1247 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1248 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1249 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1251 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1253 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1254 forgetting to do so!).
1256 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1257 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1258 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1259 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1260 arguments to enable all three types.
1262 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1263 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1265 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1266 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1267 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1268 updated copy of mts.conf.
1270 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1272 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1273 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1274 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1276 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1278 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1280 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1281 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1282 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1284 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1285 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1286 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1288 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1289 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1290 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1292 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1294 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1296 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1298 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1300 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1301 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1303 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1304 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1305 certain suffix to run properly.
1307 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1308 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1309 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1311 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1312 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1313 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1314 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1315 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1316 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1317 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1319 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1321 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1322 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1323 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1324 until some year far in the future).
1326 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1328 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1330 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1331 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1333 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1334 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1337 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1339 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1340 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1341 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1342 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1343 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1344 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1346 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1348 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1350 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1351 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1352 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1354 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1355 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1356 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1357 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1358 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1359 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1362 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1363 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1364 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1365 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1366 of masquerading individually.
1368 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1369 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1370 GECOS field delimiters.
1372 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1374 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1375 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1376 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1377 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1378 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1379 and explaining the feature.
1381 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1383 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1384 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1387 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1388 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1389 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1391 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1392 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1393 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1394 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1396 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1397 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1398 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1401 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1403 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1404 code to be executed.
1406 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1408 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1410 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1411 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1412 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1413 quotes embedded in them.
1415 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1417 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1418 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1419 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1420 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1421 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1422 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1423 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1426 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1427 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1428 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1429 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1430 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1432 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1434 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1436 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1437 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1438 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1439 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1441 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1444 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1446 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1448 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1450 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1451 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1452 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1454 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1457 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1459 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1460 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1461 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1462 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1463 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1464 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1466 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1467 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1469 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1471 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1474 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1476 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1477 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1478 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1481 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1482 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1483 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1484 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1485 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1486 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1487 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1488 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1489 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1490 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1491 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1492 processing that post has).
1494 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1496 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1497 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1498 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1499 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1500 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1501 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1504 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1506 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1508 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1510 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1512 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1513 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1515 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1518 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1520 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1521 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1522 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1525 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1527 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1528 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1529 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1530 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1531 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1532 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1534 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1536 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1538 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1540 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1541 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1542 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1543 caught again. This works for now.
1545 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1547 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1549 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1550 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1552 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1554 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1555 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1557 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1559 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1561 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1563 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1564 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1566 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1568 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1569 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1570 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1571 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1572 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1575 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1577 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1578 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1579 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1581 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1582 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1585 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1587 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1588 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1589 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1591 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1593 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1594 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1596 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1598 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1601 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1602 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1604 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1605 macros, regardless of platform.
1607 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1608 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1610 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1611 with x-conversions=gzip.
1613 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1615 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1618 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1619 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1620 implicit definition of ioctl().
1622 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1623 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1624 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1625 want to mess with them.
1627 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1629 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1630 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1632 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1633 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1635 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1636 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1637 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1639 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1640 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1641 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1643 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1644 function initgroups.
1646 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1649 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1650 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1653 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1654 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1657 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1658 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1662 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1664 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1665 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1666 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1668 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1669 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1671 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1673 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1675 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1676 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1677 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1678 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1680 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1681 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1683 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1685 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1687 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1689 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1690 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1692 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1694 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1695 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1697 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1698 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1699 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1700 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1702 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1703 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1705 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1707 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1708 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1710 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1712 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1713 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1716 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1718 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1720 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1722 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1723 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1725 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1726 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1727 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1729 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1730 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1731 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1733 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1734 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1735 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1737 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1738 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1741 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1742 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1744 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1745 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1747 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1748 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1750 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1751 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1752 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1754 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1755 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1757 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1758 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1759 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1761 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1762 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1765 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1766 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1768 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1769 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1770 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1771 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1773 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1774 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1776 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1780 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1781 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1782 would not be changed.
1784 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1785 one from the Apache web server.
1787 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1788 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1790 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1791 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1792 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1794 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1796 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1798 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1799 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1802 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1803 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1804 removes a bad race condition.
1806 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1809 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1810 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1811 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1813 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1814 sequence information.
1816 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1817 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1819 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1822 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1825 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1827 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1828 interpret 034 as octal.
1830 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1832 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1833 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1835 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1836 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1838 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1839 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1841 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1842 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1844 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1845 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1847 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1848 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1849 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1851 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1852 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1853 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1855 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1857 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1859 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1860 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1863 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1865 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1866 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1868 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1869 header field information.
1871 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1872 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1874 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1875 values when parsing a content.
1877 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1878 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1880 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1881 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1883 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1884 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1886 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1887 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1889 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1891 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1893 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1895 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1897 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1898 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1901 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1902 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1904 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1905 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1906 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1907 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1908 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1909 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1912 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1914 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1915 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1916 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1918 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1919 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1921 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1923 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1924 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1925 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1926 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1928 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1929 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1932 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1933 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1934 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1935 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1938 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1940 * Released nmh-0.27.
1942 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1943 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1945 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1946 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1947 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1948 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1951 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1952 mhbuild returns an error.
1954 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1955 rename the draft file.
1957 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1958 use a global variable.
1960 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1961 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1963 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1964 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1966 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1967 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1968 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1970 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1971 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1973 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1974 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1977 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1978 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1981 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1982 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1984 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1985 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1986 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1988 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1989 to new function output_content_folder.
1991 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1992 new function output_content_file.
1994 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1995 to new function parse_format_string.
1997 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1998 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1999 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
2000 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
2002 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
2003 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
2004 message/external file from ftp.
2006 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
2007 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
2008 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
2010 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
2011 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
2014 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
2017 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
2018 new file mhstoresbr.c
2020 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
2023 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
2024 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
2026 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
2027 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
2029 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
2030 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
2031 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
2033 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
2035 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
2037 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
2038 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
2041 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
2042 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
2044 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
2047 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
2049 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2051 * Released nmh-0.26.
2053 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
2054 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
2055 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
2056 is still the same (dashstuffing).
2058 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
2059 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
2060 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
2061 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
2062 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
2064 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
2065 But it is not on by default.
2067 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
2068 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
2070 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
2072 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
2074 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
2076 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
2078 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
2079 number of the "cur" message when packing.
2081 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2083 * Released nmh-0.25.
2085 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
2086 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
2087 uses the original name of the library.
2089 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2090 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2093 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2094 list_content and list_debug.
2096 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2098 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2099 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2101 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2103 * Released nmh-0.24.
2105 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2107 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2108 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2110 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2111 large sequence line.
2113 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2115 * Released nmh-0.23.
2117 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2119 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2120 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2121 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2122 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2124 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2125 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2128 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2130 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2132 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2134 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2135 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2137 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2138 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2140 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2141 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2143 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2144 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2146 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2148 * Released nmh-0.22.
2150 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2151 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2153 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2155 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2156 mh-profile(5) man page.
2158 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2159 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2161 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2163 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2165 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2166 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2168 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2170 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2171 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2172 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2174 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2175 source message on the standard input.
2177 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2179 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2180 rather than -rfc934mode.
2182 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2183 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2186 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2187 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2189 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2192 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2194 * Released nmh-0.21.
2196 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2197 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2199 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2202 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2203 to use for text contents.
2205 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2207 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2209 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2211 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2213 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2214 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2216 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2217 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2218 spaces between encoded word are.
2220 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2222 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2223 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2225 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2226 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2227 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2229 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2231 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2232 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2234 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2236 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2238 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2239 ISO-8859-X character set.
2241 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2244 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2245 permissions, not write permissions.
2247 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2248 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2250 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2253 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2255 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2257 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2258 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2260 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2261 message contains valid character set.
2263 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2264 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2266 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2267 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2269 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2270 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2271 between an encoded word and normal text.
2273 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2274 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2276 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2277 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2279 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2282 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2283 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2286 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2287 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2289 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2290 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2292 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2294 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2296 * Released nmh-0.20.
2298 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2300 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2302 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2303 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2304 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2306 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2307 and the To: line was missing.
2309 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2311 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2313 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2315 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2316 watch the POP transaction.
2318 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2319 first, and use it if available.
2321 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2322 first, and use it if available.
2324 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2326 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2328 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2329 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2330 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2333 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2334 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2335 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2337 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2338 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2341 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2343 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2344 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2346 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2348 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2349 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2351 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2352 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2353 message to which you are replying.
2355 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2356 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2357 making group replies.
2359 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2361 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2363 * Released nmh-0.19.
2365 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2366 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2368 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2369 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2370 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2371 to the end of the man page.
2373 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2374 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2375 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2376 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2377 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2378 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2380 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2383 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2384 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2385 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2387 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2388 the next available number above the message number you wish
2391 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2392 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2394 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2395 file sbr/seq_print.c
2397 * flist will now update the current folder.
2399 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2400 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2401 but now undocumented.
2403 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2406 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2407 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2409 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2411 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2412 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2414 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2416 * Released nmh-0.18.
2418 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2419 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2420 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2422 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2423 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2425 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2426 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2427 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2428 previous public/private status.
2430 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2433 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2436 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2437 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2438 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2440 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2441 take option to determine whether it should get current
2442 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2443 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2445 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2447 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2448 wait for stopped processes.
2450 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2451 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2453 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2455 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2457 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2458 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2460 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2461 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2463 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2464 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2465 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2466 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2468 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2471 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2474 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2476 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2477 the debugging output.
2479 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2480 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2482 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2484 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2486 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2487 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2489 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2491 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2492 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2493 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2494 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2495 in the given sequence.
2497 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2498 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2499 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2500 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2501 subdirectories of a given directory.
2503 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2504 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2505 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2507 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2508 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2510 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2512 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2515 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2516 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2517 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2519 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2520 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2521 are calculated at runtime.
2523 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2525 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2527 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2528 about checking for global mh.profile.
2530 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2531 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2532 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2533 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2534 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2535 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2537 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2538 adding message to folder itself.
2540 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2541 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2542 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2545 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2546 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2549 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2550 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2551 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2553 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2554 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2556 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2557 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2558 code to use it yet).
2560 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2562 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2564 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2565 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2567 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2568 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2570 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2572 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2575 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2577 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2579 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2581 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2583 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2584 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2586 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2588 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2590 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2592 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2594 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2596 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2597 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2599 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2600 configuration files.
2602 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2604 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2606 * Released nmh-0.17.
2608 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2610 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2611 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2613 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2616 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2617 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2619 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2620 number of refiled message.
2622 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2624 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2625 for return value of wait().
2627 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2629 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2631 * Released nmh-0.16.
2633 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2635 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2637 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2638 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2639 deal with binary messages, yet).
2641 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2643 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2645 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2646 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2647 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2648 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2649 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2650 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2652 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2653 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2655 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2656 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2658 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2659 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2662 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2664 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2666 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2667 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2670 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2673 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2675 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2676 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2677 which used unsigned chars by default.
2679 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2681 * Released nmh-0.15.
2683 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2684 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2686 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2688 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2690 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2693 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2694 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2695 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2697 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2698 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2700 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2702 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2703 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2705 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2706 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2707 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2708 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2710 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2711 and put in own subroutine.
2713 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2714 and put in own subroutine.
2716 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2717 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2718 refile.c to use new routine.
2720 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2722 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2724 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2727 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2728 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2729 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2731 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2734 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2735 adding message to sequence.
2737 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2738 corresponding file in sbr.
2740 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2743 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2745 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2746 all selected messages from a sequence.
2748 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2749 selected messages to a sequence.
2751 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2754 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2756 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2757 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2759 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2761 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
2762 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
2764 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2766 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
2767 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2769 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2771 * Released nmh-0.14.
2773 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2774 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2776 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2778 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2779 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2780 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2781 environment variable.
2783 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2784 draft folder facility in nmh.
2786 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2789 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2790 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2793 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2796 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2798 * Released nmh-0.13.
2800 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2801 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2802 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2803 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2806 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2807 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2809 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2811 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2812 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2814 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2816 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2817 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2819 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2821 * Released nmh-0.12.
2823 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2825 * Released nmh-0.11.
2827 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2829 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2830 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2832 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2833 mp->attrstats with macros.

2845 will suppress the display of the message header.
2847 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2849 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2850 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2852 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2854 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2856 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2858 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2859 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2861 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2862 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2864 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2866 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2868 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2869 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2871 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2872 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2874 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2876 * Released nmh-0.10.

2886 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2888 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2889 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2891 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and

2894 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2896 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2897 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2899 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2901 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2902 of missing tabs in regex.
2904 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2906 * Released nmh-0.09.

2924 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2926 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted

2929 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2931 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2932 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2934 * Released nmh-0.08.
2936 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2937 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2938 locking database itself.
2940 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2942 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2944 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2945 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2948 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2949 rather than mmdf format.
2951 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2952 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2953 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2954 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2956 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2958 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2960 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2963 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2964 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2965 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2967 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2968 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2969 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2971 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2973 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2974 can still easily change this in config.h).
2976 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2977 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2978 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2980 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2982 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2983 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2985 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2987 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

2994 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2996 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2997 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2999 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
3000 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
3003 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
3004 built-in FTP client in mhn.

3017 * Released nmh-0.06.
3019 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
3020 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
3022 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
3023 many such machines around anymore.
3025 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
3026 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
3028 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
3029 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
3031 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3033 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
3034 pre-generated version if necessary.
3036 * Released nmh-0.05.
3038 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
3039 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
3040 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
3041 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
3043 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
3044 be linked in one pass.
3046 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3048 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
3049 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
3051 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3053 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
3055 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3057 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
3058 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
3059 become the current folder.
3061 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3063 * Released nmh-0.04.
3065 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
3068 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3070 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
3071 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
3072 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
3074 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3076 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
3077 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
3079 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3081 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
3082 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
3085 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
3086 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
3088 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3090 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
3091 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
3092 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
3093 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3094 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3095 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3097 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3099 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3100 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3102 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3103 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3105 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3107 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3108 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3110 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3112 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3113 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3114 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3116 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3118 * Released nmh-0.03.
3120 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3121 .mh_sequence file existed.
3123 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3124 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3126 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3127 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3130 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3132 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3135 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3137 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3138 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3139 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3141 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3143 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3144 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3145 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3147 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3149 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3150 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3152 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3154 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3156 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3157 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3158 directory from where the source code is located.
3160 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3162 * Released nmh-0.02.
3164 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

3169 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3171 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3172 and sys_nerr directly.
3174 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3176 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3178 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3180 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3182 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3183 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3184 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3185 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3186 rather than in script.
3188 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3190 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3192 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3193 macro defined on Solaris.
3195 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3197 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3198 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3200 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3201 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3202 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3203 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3206 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3208 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3209 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3211 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3214 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3216 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3218 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3219 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3221 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3223 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3224 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3226 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3228 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3229 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3230 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3231 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3232 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3233 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3235 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3237 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3239 * Released nmh-0.01.
3241 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3242 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3243 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3246 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3248 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3251 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3253 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3254 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3256 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3258 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3259 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3260 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3261 script to find_program.
3263 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3265 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3266 speed up -recurse option.
3268 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3269 yet, but it compiles :-)
3271 * Changed default location for install to
3272 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3273 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3274 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3277 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3278 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3279 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
