multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte chars fit
[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 2006-01-16 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
2
3 * uip/scansbr.c: multiply buffer size by MB_CUR_MAX so multi-byte
4 chars fit
5
6 2006-01-14 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
7
8 * sbr/fmt_scan.c: Turn the PUTSF macro into a function capable of
9 handling multi column characters.
10
11 2006-01-07 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
12
13 * Remove sbr/strerror.c -- strerror(3) is defined in C89.
14
15 2006-01-06 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
16
17 * patch #3968: Move the add() function from its own file (add.c) and
18 into utils.c. There was also a duplicate add() function in mf.c which
19 has been removed.
20
21 2006-01-02 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
22
23 * Remove sbr/pwd.c file, moving the pwd() function into sbr/utils.c.
24
25 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
26
27 * patch #3967: Create a mh_xrealloc function to prevent mistakes when
28 calling realloc.
29
30 2006-01-01 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
31
32 * patch #3966: Create a mh_xmalloc function to prevent mistakes when
33 calling malloc.
34
35 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
36
37 * Bug #15285: Don't use $< in target rules in makefiles, as POSIX
38 says it's only defined in inference rules. (BSD make was expanding
39 $< to the empty string in the rule for building sbr/dtimep.c, which
40 causes lex to apparently hang because it's reading from stdin.)
41
42 2005-12-24 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
43
44 * Completely redo db library checking -- we now check for working
45 (include file, library) pairs rather than checking for headers and
46 libraries separately. We also now provide --with-ndbm=lib and
47 --with-ndbmheader=header options to configure to handle situations
48 where configure's autodetection fails.
49
50 2005-12-21 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
51
52 * Fix stupid accidental dependence on a bash quirk in previous
53 configure script change.
54
55 2005-12-15 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
56
57 * Improve checking for Berkeley db libraries: configure should now
58 find a suitable library on systems with new gdbm where
59 compatibility functions are in the gdbm_compat library, and on
60 systems with libdb4.
61
62 2005-12-13 Michael Forrest <mef@computer.org>
63
64 * Fedora Bug #163760: sbr/context_read.c (context_read): Ensure that
65 the context is only read once.
66
67 2005-12-12 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
68
69 * uip/sendsbr.c (annoaux): Fix the call to annotate() fixing a bug
70 which prevented repl from properly annotating messages.
71
72 2005-12-07 Jon Steinhart <nmh@fourwinds.com>
73
74 * Fixed a bug where anno -append put the headers in the wrong place
75 if applied to a message that didn't contain any headers.
76
77 * Added a special value of "all" to the -number option that causes
78 anno -delete to delete all matching components instead of just
79 the first one.
80
81 * Added new -preserve and -nopreserve options. Using -preserve
82 retains the original last accessed and last modified times on
83 annotated messages.
84
85 2005-12-05 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
86
87 * Fedora Bug #174983: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
88 vi isn't found during build.
89
90 2005-11-19 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
91
92 * bug #14977: sbr/context_read.c: special case an MHCONTEXT of
93 "/dev/null" and don't try to lock it.
94
95 * bug #9228, debian bug #146449: man/mh-profile.man: make it clearer
96 that lower case environment variables (and in particular mheditor)
97 are internal to nmh and not intended to be set by the user.
98
99 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
100
101 * sbr/mf.c: fix buffer overrun with absurdly long addresses
102 (only causes crashes if scan is run with '-width 16536' or similar)
103
104 * bug #7917: sbr/context_foil.c, sbr/context_read.c,
105 sbr/context_save.c: mark 'no context' with NULL rather than
106 "/dev/null" so we don't inadvertently try to lock /dev/null (which
107 takes up to a minute in some locking configurations and makes post
108 very slow).
109
110 * patch #3913: uip/post.c: pass some globals into sm_init() so that
111 it uses SASL if necessary. (This bug was preventing Bcc'd emails
112 from being sent via SASL authenticated SMTP.)
113
114 * bug #9813: uip/rmf.c: don't crash if there's no Current-Folder
115 entry in the context file.
116
117 2005-11-13 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
118
119 * bug #7833: uip/Makefile.in: remove link to install-mh that caused
120 problems on some systems
121
122 * bug #739: Makefile.in: install target now depends on all to avoid
123 problem on case-insensitive file systems with the INSTALL file
124
125 2005-11-10 Josh Bressers <josh@bress.net>
126
127 * Fedora Bug #172838: configure.in: Fix the AC_PATH_PROG default when
128 sendmail isn't found during build.
129
130 2005-11-09 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
131
132 * h/aliasbr.h: fix a non-ANSI prototype.
133
134 2005-11-08 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
135
136 * Simon Burge: acconfig.h, configure.in, uip/rcvtty.c, uip/slocal.c:
137 fix to handle getutent() on NetBSD
138
139 * INSTALL, README, docs/README.about, man/nmh.man: update most
140 references to the web page and mailing list locations
141
142 * bug #10230: etc/Makefile.in, man/Makefile.in, uip/Makefile.in:
143 Michael De La Rue: prepend DESTDIR to install locations
144
145 * configure.in, */Makefile.in, mts/smtp/smtp.c: replace obsolete
146 autoconf macros
147
148 2005-11-06 Peter Maydell <pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
149
150 * sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c, h/prototypes.h: fix various
151 possible overruns of the buffers in fmt_scan() which would cause
152 crashes if scan was run with '-width 16536' or similar.
153
154 * uip/popsbr.c: fix compile error which only showed up if nmh
155 was configured with --enable-apop.
156
157 * Debian Bug# 245932, RedHat Bug# 172388: uip/mhparse.c: don't
158 crash when handling a multipart MIME message with an invalid
159 Content-Type header (file handle was being fclose()d twice).
160
161 * sbr/Makefile.in: adjust lex command to work on both old and
162 new versions of flex.
163
164 * configure.in: add an AC_PREREQ() so autoconf 2.13 gives a helpful
165 error message and the Debian autoconf-version-guessing wrapper
166 doesn't guess wrongly.
167
168 2005-11-02 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
169
170 * Debian Bug# 320069: Nick Rusnov: uip/popsbr.c: fail when
171 kpop connection attempted without KPOP support compiled in
172
173 * Debian Bug# 320090: Nick Rusnov: sbr/Makefile.in: fix for newer
174 version of flex and remove autogenerated file from cvs
175
176 * patch #1155: uip/flist.c: speed up flist by skipping stat on
177 files with numbers as names
178
179 * docs/Makefile.in: include new files in distribution
180
181 2005-10-11 Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>
182
183 * docs/FAQ: fold questions into MH FAQ and distribute that instead
184
185 2005-10-05 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
186
187 * Harald Geyer: h/mh.h, uip/replsbr.c: back out previous change
188 (fork/vfork) and replace with code that handles the issue directly
189
190 2005-05-18 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
191
192 * Debian Bug# 143485: Nick Rusnov: h/mh.h: use fork instead of
193 vfork on Linux
194
195 * Debian Bug# 261592: Harald Geyer: uip/mhlsbr.c, uip/replsbr.c:
196 test/report error writing to stdout
197
198 * mts/smtp/smtp.c, uip/popsbr.c: correct SASL include file locations
199
200 * docs/COMPLETION-BASH: bash completion definitions from Debian
201
202 * patch #2863: savannah@brisammon.fastmail.fm: sbr/folder_read.c:
203 fix a bug affecting AFS where nmh was setting the READONLY flag
204 for a folder even when you do have write access to the folder
205
206 * Carl Mummert: h/fmt_compile.h, man/mh-format.man,
207 sbr/fmt_compile.c, sbr/fmt_scan.c: add unquote() function for
208 removing quotes from RFC-2822 encoded headers
209
210 2005-02-23 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
211
212 * use iconv to convert RFC-2047 encoded headers to the
213 character set used by the current locale
214
215 * sbr/folder_read.c fix Debian bug #202667: crash when a
216 message's filename overflows an int when converted
217
218 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
219 versions (from automake 1.9.5)
220
221 2005-02-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
222
223 * sbr/getpass.c fix bug where inc crashed on failing to reopen
224 the terminal
225
226 2005-01-27 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
227
228 * Added -proxy option to inc and msgchk. Based on old patch
229 from Michael Richardson.
230
231 * On systems where it is available, use nl_langinfo to get the
232 character set if MM_CHARSET is unset
233
234 2005-01-21 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
235
236 * sbr/check_charset.c US-ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 so can be
237 handled directly when UTF-8 is being used
238
239 2004-12-17 Oliver Kiddle <okiddle@yahoo.co.uk>
240
241 * uip/mhmisc.c Fix -part option to mhshow/mhlist/mhstore to
242 find sub-parts of the specified part
243
244 2004-11-19 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
245
246 * h/prototypes.h, sbr/folder_addmsg.c, uip/mhstoresbr.c,
247 uip/rcvstore.c, uip/refile.c: Added mail directory argument to
248 folder_addmsg in order to make it possible to provide a path to
249 the ext_hook call that is mailpath-based. A problem existed when
250 a folder was a symbolic link and the pwd call would return the
251 path relative to the filesystem, not to mailpath. A new argument
252 was needed because there was otherwise no reasonable way to get
253 that path.
254
255 2004-11-16 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
256
257 * sbr/folder_pack.c: Fixed problem where the refile hook was being
258 called after a message was renamed so that it wasn't around for
259 the hook. The hook is now called before the message file is
260 renamed.
261
262 * sbr/folder_addmsg.c: Fixed wrong directory for hook when
263 refiling with -src option.
264
265 2004-10-15 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
266
267 * uip/sortm.c: Fixed calling of external hooks.
268
269 2004-10-12 Jon Steinhart <jon@fourwinds.com>
270
271 * uip/inc.c: Fixed another weird bug caused by the static
272 mailpath being overwritten.
273
274 * uip/sendsbr.c: Fixed bug that caused anno to mangle headers.
275
276 * sbr/lock_file.c: Fixed strange bug that prevented a lock from
277 ever being obtained if getting it failed the first time. The
278 problem was that the string of XXXXXX that is required by
279 mkstemp() was overwritten the first time through, and so all
280 subsequent times failed because mkstemp() failed. The fix
281 reinitializes the tmp file string.
282
283 * uip/inc.c: Fixed bug in which the static maildir was overwritted
284 if a format string was read from the profile.
285
286 * sbr/folder_delmsgs.c: Fixed bug that was producing an incorrect
287 path for the external hook.
288
289 2003-10-06 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
290
291 * uip/slocal.c, configure.in: db configuration fix for Debian; yet
292 another location for ndbm.
293
294 2003-09-30 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
295
296 * Fix 'pick' so handling of options "-list" and "-seq" are
297 independent.
298 * Fix 'inc' realloc error when bringing in more than 100 msgs
299 to empty folder.
300 * Patches submitted by Nick Rusnov from Debian archive applied:
301
302 Debian Bug#
303 136976 - Handle binary content messages
304 143427 - mh-format.man typo
305 144098 - 'spost; should have same behavior as 'post'
306 w.r.t. mts.conf masquerade line
307 149745 - slocal ignores 'N' result of previous command
308 152728 - increase SMTP timeouts to conform to RFC 1123
309 The timeouts suggested by the RFC seem long
310 to me - but the RFC is still listed as active.
311 181867 - typo for nmh.man
312
313 2003-08-10 Jeffrey C Honig <jch@honig.net>
314
315 * Fix problem where parsing of address/date fields in fmt_compile
316 is optimized to the first instance. The first instance may be in
317 contitional code which will result in cached data to
318 be used. Instead, convert c_flags to a flags field from a boolean
319 and parse on the first use.
320 * Remove some unused flag bits.
321
322 Fri Jul 01 22:02:00 2003 Glenn Burkhardt <glenn@aoi-industries.com>
323
324 * Applied fixes for configuration problems with Solaris and
325 systems with gdbm instead of db1 (includes bug #2024)
326 * Fixes for bugs
327 #578 - repl leaks umask
328 #1393 - sortm core dumps
329 #1650 - msh leaks file descriptors
330 #1730 - Double free() in mhfree.c:free_encoding()
331 #3356 - In-Reply-To header in default replcomps should be
332 RFC2822 compliant
333 * Revised man page for mh-format (bug #2031)
334 * New replcomps, etc, with Fcc: +outbox in default versions
335
336 Sat Mar 17 03:18:15 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
337
338 * Ken Hornstein's configure.in Cyrus SASL checks were doing
339 `x"$with_cyrus_sasl" != "no"' instead of `... != x"no"'.
340
341 Tue Mar 06 21:04:27 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
342
343 * Found some historical information about MH in RFC 808.
344 Supplemented it with info from Jerry Peek's MH book and added it
345 to docs/README.about.
346
347 Tue Feb 6 20:35:40 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
348
349 * sbr/dtime.c Use the same Y2K correction code as dtimep.lex
350
351 * sbr/dtimep.lex Restrict the parser to accept either
352 a numerical timezone offset, or a symbolic one (e.g. EST),
353 but not both (Since "2000 -400 EDT" might cause a double
354 subtraction of 60 minutes if both are parsed. One should be
355 enough).
356
357 Mon Feb 05 20:22:54 2001 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
358
359 * -L isn't sufficient for specifying the path of the Cyrus SASL
360 shared library. That'll allow us to link successfully, but on
361 many/most OSes that won't allow us to find libsasl at runtime. On
362 Solaris, we need to specify the library path with -R as well (or
363 else the user will have to use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH kludge, which
364 is considered harmful). This fix should be extended to other OSes
365 as well.
366
367 * Print whether we have SASL support in the "nmh configuration"
368 summary configure prints out.
369
370 * Say in README.developers to use `\date' in case anyone is like
371 me and has `date' aliased in their shell to use a nonstandard (but
372 subjectively more readable) format.
373
374 Thu Jan 25 21:15:52 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
375
376 * man/mh-chart.man has updated synposes of
377 all nmh commands.
378
379 Tue Jan 23 20:26:15 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
380
381 * etc/digestcomps tried to force dates into a
382 19xx when it's not necessary.
383
384 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
385
386 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
387 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
388 roff mark-up.
389
390 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
391 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
392 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
393 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
394 the man pages correctly.
395
396 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
397
398 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
399
400 * Finished manpages ali-prev
401
402 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
403 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
404 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
405 structure.
406
407 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
408 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
409 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
410 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
411
412 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
413
414 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
415 the formatting rules I've been using.
416
417 * Finished ali-inc.
418
419 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
420
421 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
422 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
423 used in the manpages.
424
425 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
426 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
427 read in the contents of the file as the variable
428 $DATE.
429
430 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
431 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
432 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
433 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
434 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
435 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
436 bold flags and italicized parameters.
437
438 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
439
440 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
441 --with-locking option.
442
443 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
444 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
445 information was not being communicated to the
446 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
447 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
448 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
449 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
450 undefined symbols problems.
451
452 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
453 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
454 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
455 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
456 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
457 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
458 for a genuine krb4 installation.
459
460 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
461
462 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
463 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
464
465 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
466
467 * Made a new ./configure option called
468 "--with-locking" that allows the file
469 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
470 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
471
472 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
473 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
474 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
475 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
476 the user that these are the valid options, and
477 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
478 descriptive enough.
479
480 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
481
482 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
483 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
484 committed to supporting flex only, since
485 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
486 string, as well as other problems documented
487 below and on nmh-workers.
488
489 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
490 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
491 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
492 the flag.
493
494 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
495 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
496
497 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
498
499 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
500 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
501 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
502
503 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
504
505 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
506 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
507
508 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
509
510 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
511 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
512 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
513 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
514 couldn't correctly identify them.
515
516 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
517
518 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
519 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
520 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
521 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
522 not depending on an external archive.
523
524 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
525 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
526 mts/generic is no longer built.
527
528 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
529
530 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
531 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
532 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
533 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
534 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
535 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
536 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
537 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
538
539 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
540
541 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
542 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
543 correct.
544
545 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
546
547 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
548 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
549 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
550 now finally mts.
551
552 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
553 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
554 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
555 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
556
557 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
558 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
559 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
560 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
561 merged into the smtp code).
562
563 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
564 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
565 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
566 of it for us.
567
568 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
569 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
570 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
571 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
572 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
573 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
574 in the appropriate Makefile.in
575
576 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
577
578 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
579 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
580 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
581 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
582 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
583 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
584 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
585 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
586 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
587 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
588 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
589
590 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
591
592 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
593 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
594 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
595 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
596 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
597 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
598 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
599 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
600 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
601
602 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
603
604 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
605 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
606 able to access them.
607
608 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
609
610 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
611 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
612
613 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
614
615 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
616 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
617 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
618 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
619
620 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
621
622 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
623 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
624 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
625 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
626 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
627
628 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
629 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
630
631 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
632
633 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
634
635 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
636 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
637 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
638 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
639
640 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
641 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
642 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
643 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
644
645 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
646 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
647 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
648 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
649
650 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
651 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
652 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
653
654 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
655
656 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
657 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
658 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
659 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
660 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
661 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
662 my users.
663
664 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
665 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
666
667 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
668 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
669
670 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
671
672 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
673
674 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
675
676 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
677 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
678 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
679 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
680
681 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
682
683 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
684 be easily changed from "," to "#".
685
686 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
687
688 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
689
690 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
691 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
692 README.developers.
693
694 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
695
696 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
697 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
698 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
699 but not for the subsequent data stream.
700
701 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
702
703 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
704 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
705 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
706 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
707 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
708
709 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
710
711 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
712 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
713
714 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
715 cat, also define lorder as echo.
716
717 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
718
719 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
720
721 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
722 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
723 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
724
725 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
726
727 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
728 #if 0 block).
729
730 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
731 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
732
733 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
734
735 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
736 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
737
738 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
739
740 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
741 inc does not need to be setgid.
742
743 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
744
745 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
746 library, as found on Debian systems.
747
748 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
749
750 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
751
752 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
753 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
754 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
755 case-insensitivity flag.
756
757 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
758
759 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
760 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
761
762 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
763
764 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
765 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
766 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
767 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
768 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
769 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
770 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
771 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
772 getting moved aside).
773
774 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
775 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
776
777 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
778
779 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
780 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
781 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
782 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
783 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
784 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
785 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
786 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
787 the prototype, but never sets it.
788
789 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
790 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
791 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
792 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
793 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
794 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
795
796 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
797 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
798 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
799 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
800 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
801
802 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
803
804 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
805 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
806 of tws.h.
807
808 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
809 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
810 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
811 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
812 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
813 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
814 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
815
816 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
817
818 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
819
820 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
821 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
822 this works on other systems.
823
824 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
825
826 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
827 checks for write failures.
828
829 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
830
831 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
832
833 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
834 is patched in.
835
836 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
837
838 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
839
840 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
841
842 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
843 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
844 a buffer boundary.
845
846 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
847
848 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
849 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
850 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
851 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
852
853 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
854
855 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
856 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
857 place.
858
859 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
860 as well as Makefiles.
861
862 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
863
864 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
865 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
866 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
867 should make maintainability easier.
868
869 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
870 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
871 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
872 whatever you know works.
873
874 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
875
876 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
877 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
878 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
879
880 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
881 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
882 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
883 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
884
885 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
886 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
887 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
888
889 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
890 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
891 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
892 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
893 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
894
895 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
896 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
897 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
898 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
899 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
900 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
901 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
902 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
903 from the BSD version.
904
905 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
906 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
907 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
908
909 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
910 in ruserpass.c also.
911
912 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
913 report:
914
915 This happens on solaris:
916
917 % man mts.conf
918 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
919 No manual entry for mts.conf.
920
921 It is fixed by
922
923 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
924
925 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
926 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
927
928 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
929
930 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
931 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
932 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
933 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
934 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
935 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
936 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
937 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
938 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
939 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
940 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
941
942 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
943 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
944 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
945 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
946 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
947 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
948 out of nowhere.
949
950 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
951 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
952 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
953 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
954 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
955
956 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
957 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
958
959 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
960
961 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
962 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
963 to stdin, such as exmh.
964
965 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
966 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
967 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
968 other files.
969
970 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
971
972 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
973 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
974 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
975 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
976 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
977 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
978 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
979
980 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
981
982 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
983 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
984
985 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
986
987 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
988 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
989
990 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
991
992 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
993 --enable-apop.
994
995 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
996 along with any -host or -user option.
997
998 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
999
1000 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
1001
1002 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
1003 process was fresh in my mind.
1004
1005 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1006
1007 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
1008 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
1009
1010 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
1011
1012 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1013
1014 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
1015 patch:
1016
1017 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
1018 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
1019 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
1020 part of the program's name.
1021
1022 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
1023 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
1024 to quote.
1025
1026 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1027
1028 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
1029 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
1030 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
1031 single-character format would cause programs using this
1032 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
1033 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
1034 when the format string was one character. This eventually
1035 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
1036 in the array.
1037
1038 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1039
1040 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
1041 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
1042 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
1043 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
1044 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
1045 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
1046
1047 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
1048 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
1049 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
1050 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
1051 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
1052 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
1053 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
1054 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
1055
1056 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
1057 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
1058 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
1059 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
1060 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
1061 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
1062 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
1063 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
1064 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
1065 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
1066
1067 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1068
1069 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
1070 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
1071
1072 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
1073 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
1074
1075 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
1076 exit 2
1077
1078 and:
1079
1080 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
1081
1082 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
1083 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
1084 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
1085 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
1086
1087 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
1088 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
1089 problem in the routine.
1090
1091 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1092
1093 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
1094 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
1095
1096 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
1097 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
1098 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
1099 spool somehow.
1100
1101 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1102
1103 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
1104 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
1105 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
1106 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
1107 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
1108 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
1109 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
1110 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
1111 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
1112 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
1113
1114 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1115
1116 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
1117 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
1118 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
1119 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
1120 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
1121 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
1122 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
1123 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
1124 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
1125 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
1126 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
1127 interesting than a duplication of the default.
1128
1129 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
1130 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
1131 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
1132 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
1133 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
1134
1135 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
1136 POP is enabled.
1137
1138 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
1139
1140 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
1141 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
1142 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
1143 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
1144 here.
1145
1146 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
1147
1148 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1149
1150 * Applied, after some finessing,
1151 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
1152
1153 Here's a patch that allows you to add
1154
1155 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
1156
1157 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
1158 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
1159 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
1160 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
1161
1162 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
1163
1164 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
1165 forgetting to do so!).
1166
1167 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
1168 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
1169 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
1170 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
1171 arguments to enable all three types.
1172
1173 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
1174 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
1175
1176 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
1177 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
1178 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
1179 updated copy of mts.conf.
1180
1181 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
1182
1183 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
1184 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
1185 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
1186
1187 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
1188 and
1189 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
1190
1191 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
1192 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
1193 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
1194
1195 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
1196 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
1197 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
1198
1199 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
1200 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
1201 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
1202
1203 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
1204
1205 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1206
1207 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
1208
1209 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
1210
1211 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
1212 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
1213
1214 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
1215 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
1216 certain suffix to run properly.
1217
1218 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
1219 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
1220 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
1221
1222 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
1223 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
1224 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
1225 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
1226 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
1227 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
1228 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
1229
1230 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
1231
1232 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
1233 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
1234 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
1235 until some year far in the future).
1236
1237 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1238
1239 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
1240
1241 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
1242 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
1243
1244 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
1245 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
1246 corrupted.
1247
1248 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1249
1250 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
1251 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
1252 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
1253 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
1254 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
1255 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
1256
1257 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1258
1259 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
1260
1261 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
1262 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
1263 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
1264
1265 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
1266 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
1267 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
1268 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
1269 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
1270 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
1271 leads me to:
1272
1273 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
1274 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
1275 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
1276 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
1277 of masquerading individually.
1278
1279 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
1280 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
1281 GECOS field delimiters.
1282
1283 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1284
1285 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
1286 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
1287 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
1288 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
1289 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
1290 and explaining the feature.
1291
1292 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1293
1294 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
1295 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
1296 so).
1297
1298 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
1299 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
1300 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
1301
1302 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
1303 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
1304 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
1305 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
1306
1307 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
1308 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
1309 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
1310 anywhere.
1311
1312 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1313
1314 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
1315 code to be executed.
1316
1317 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
1318
1319 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1320
1321 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
1322 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
1323 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
1324 quotes embedded in them.
1325
1326 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1327
1328 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
1329 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
1330 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
1331 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
1332 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
1333 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
1334 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
1335 allowed to specify.
1336
1337 The other theory is that because you can say something like
1338 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
1339 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
1340 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
1341 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
1342
1343 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1344
1345 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
1346
1347 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
1348 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
1349 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
1350 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
1351
1352 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
1353 KPOP server.
1354
1355 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
1356
1357 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
1358
1359 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1360
1361 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
1362 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
1363 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
1364
1365 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
1366 mhn.defaults.sh.
1367
1368 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1369
1370 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
1371 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
1372 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
1373 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
1374 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
1375 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
1376
1377 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
1378 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
1379
1380 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1381
1382 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1383 page.
1384
1385 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1386
1387 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1388 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1389 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1390 to be setgid.
1391
1392 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1393 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1394 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1395 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1396 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1397 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1398 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1399 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1400 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1401 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1402 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1403 processing that post has).
1404
1405 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1406
1407 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1408 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1409 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1410 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1411 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1412 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1413 Solaris 2.6).
1414
1415 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1416
1417 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1418
1419 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1420
1421 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1422
1423 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1424 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1425
1426 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1427 command-line.
1428
1429 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1430
1431 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1432 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1433 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1434 some development.
1435
1436 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1437
1438 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1439 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1440 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1441 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1442 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1443 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1444
1445 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1446
1447 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1448
1449 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1450
1451 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1452 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1453 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1454 caught again. This works for now.
1455
1456 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1457
1458 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1459
1460 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1461 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1462
1463 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1464
1465 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1466 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1467
1468 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1469
1470 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1471
1472 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1473
1474 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1475 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1476
1477 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1478
1479 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1480 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1481 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1482 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1483 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1484 multiple purposes.
1485
1486 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1487
1488 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1489 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1490 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1491
1492 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1493 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1494 config.guess.
1495
1496 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1497
1498 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1499 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1500 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1501
1502 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1503
1504 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1505 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1506
1507 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1508
1509 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1510 distributed.
1511
1512 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1513 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1514
1515 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1516 macros, regardless of platform.
1517
1518 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1519 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1520
1521 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1522 with x-conversions=gzip.
1523
1524 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1525
1526 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1527 post.c.
1528
1529 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1530 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1531 implicit definition of ioctl().
1532
1533 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1534 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1535 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1536 want to mess with them.
1537
1538 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1539
1540 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1541 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1542
1543 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1544 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1545
1546 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1547 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1548 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1549
1550 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1551 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1552 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1553
1554 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1555 function initgroups.
1556
1557 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1558 function.
1559
1560 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1561 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1562 to fix warnings.
1563
1564 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1565 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1566 prevent warnings.
1567
1568 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1569 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1570 statements).
1571
1572
1573 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1574
1575 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1576 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1577 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1578
1579 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1580 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1581
1582 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1583
1584 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1585
1586 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1587 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1588 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1589 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1590
1591 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1592 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1593
1594 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1595
1596 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1597
1598 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1599
1600 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1601 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1602
1603 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1604
1605 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1606 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1607
1608 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1609 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1610 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1611 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1612
1613 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1614 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1615
1616 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1617
1618 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1619 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1620
1621 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1622
1623 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1624 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1625 proper #defines.
1626
1627 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1628
1629 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1630
1631 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1632
1633 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1634 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1635
1636 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1637 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1638 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1639
1640 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1641 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1642 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1643
1644 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1645 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1646 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1647
1648 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1649 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1650 <swb@nconnect.net>.
1651
1652 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1653 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1654
1655 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1656 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1657
1658 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1659 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1660
1661 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1662 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1663 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1664
1665 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1666 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1667
1668 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1669 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1670 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1671
1672 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1673 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1674 <rmg@netapp.com>.
1675
1676 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1677 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1678
1679 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1680 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1681 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1682 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1683
1684 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1685 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1686
1687 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1688
1689 * Released nmh-1.0.
1690
1691 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1692 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1693 would not be changed.
1694
1695 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1696 one from the Apache web server.
1697
1698 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1699 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1700
1701 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1702 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1703 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1704
1705 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1706
1707 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1708
1709 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1710 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1711 verbose printing).
1712
1713 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1714 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1715 removes a bad race condition.
1716
1717 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1718 style drop file.
1719
1720 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1721 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1722 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1723
1724 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1725 sequence information.
1726
1727 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1728 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1729
1730 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1731 count.
1732
1733 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1734 is empty.
1735
1736 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1737
1738 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1739 interpret 034 as octal.
1740
1741 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1742
1743 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1744 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1745
1746 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1747 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1748
1749 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1750 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1751
1752 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1753 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1754
1755 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1756 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1757
1758 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1759 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1760 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1761
1762 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1763 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1764 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1765
1766 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1767
1768 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1769
1770 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1771 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1772 file "mhoutsbr.c".
1773
1774 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1775
1776 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1777 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1778
1779 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1780 header field information.
1781
1782 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1783 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1784
1785 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1786 values when parsing a content.
1787
1788 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1789 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1790
1791 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1792 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1793
1794 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1795 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1796
1797 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1798 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1799
1800 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1801
1802 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1803
1804 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1805
1806 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1807
1808 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1809 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1810 read.
1811
1812 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1813 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1814
1815 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1816 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1817 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1818 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1819 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1820 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1821 be setuid/setgid.
1822
1823 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1824
1825 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1826 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1827 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1828
1829 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1830 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1831
1832 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1833
1834 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1835 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1836 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1837 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1838
1839 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1840 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1841 fix).
1842
1843 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1844 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1845 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1846 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1847 arguments.
1848
1849 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1850
1851 * Released nmh-0.27.
1852
1853 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1854 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1855
1856 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1857 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1858 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1859 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1860 with no arguments.
1861
1862 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1863 mhbuild returns an error.
1864
1865 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1866 rename the draft file.
1867
1868 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1869 use a global variable.
1870
1871 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1872 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1873
1874 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1875 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1876
1877 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1878 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1879 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1880
1881 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1882 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1883
1884 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1885 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1886 this new page.
1887
1888 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1889 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1890 viamail program.
1891
1892 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1893 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1894
1895 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1896 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1897 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1898
1899 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1900 to new function output_content_folder.
1901
1902 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1903 new function output_content_file.
1904
1905 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1906 to new function parse_format_string.
1907
1908 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1909 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1910 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1911 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1912
1913 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1914 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1915 message/external file from ftp.
1916
1917 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1918 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1919 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1920
1921 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1922 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1923 mhfree.c.
1924
1925 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1926 file mhshowsbr.c.
1927
1928 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1929 new file mhstoresbr.c
1930
1931 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1932 file mhparse.c.
1933
1934 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1935 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1936
1937 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1938 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1939
1940 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1941 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1942 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1943
1944 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1945
1946 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1947
1948 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1949 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1950 to main().
1951
1952 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1953 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1954
1955 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1956 to mhparse.c).
1957
1958 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1959
1960 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1961
1962 * Released nmh-0.26.
1963
1964 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1965 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1966 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1967 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1968
1969 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1970 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1971 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1972 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1973 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1974
1975 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1976 But it is not on by default.
1977
1978 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1979 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1980
1981 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1982
1983 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1984
1985 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1986
1987 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1988
1989 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1990 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1991
1992 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1993
1994 * Released nmh-0.25.
1995
1996 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1997 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1998 uses the original name of the library.
1999
2000 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
2001 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
2002 links remaining.
2003
2004 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
2005 list_content and list_debug.
2006
2007 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
2008
2009 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
2010 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
2011
2012 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2013
2014 * Released nmh-0.24.
2015
2016 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
2017
2018 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
2019 are given, that order doesn't matter.
2020
2021 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
2022 large sequence line.
2023
2024 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2025
2026 * Released nmh-0.23.
2027
2028 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
2029
2030 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
2031 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
2032 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
2033 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
2034
2035 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
2036 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
2037 file h/mhnsbr.h.
2038
2039 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
2040
2041 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
2042
2043 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
2044
2045 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
2046 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
2047
2048 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
2049 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
2050
2051 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
2052 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2053
2054 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
2055 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
2056
2057 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2058
2059 * Released nmh-0.22.
2060
2061 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
2062 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
2063
2064 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
2065
2066 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
2067 mh-profile(5) man page.
2068
2069 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
2070 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
2071
2072 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2073
2074 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
2075
2076 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
2077 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
2078
2079 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
2080
2081 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
2082 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
2083 entry point for parsing MIME files.
2084
2085 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
2086 source message on the standard input.
2087
2088 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
2089
2090 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
2091 rather than -rfc934mode.
2092
2093 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
2094 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
2095 only one message.
2096
2097 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
2098 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
2099
2100 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
2101 it is still needed.
2102
2103 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2104
2105 * Released nmh-0.21.
2106
2107 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
2108 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
2109
2110 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
2111 encoding to use.
2112
2113 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
2114 to use for text contents.
2115
2116 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
2117
2118 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2119
2120 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
2121
2122 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
2123
2124 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
2125 header fields as per RFC-2047.
2126
2127 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
2128 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
2129 spaces between encoded word are.
2130
2131 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
2132
2133 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
2134 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
2135
2136 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
2137 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
2138 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
2139
2140 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
2141
2142 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
2143 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
2144
2145 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
2146
2147 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
2148
2149 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
2150 ISO-8859-X character set.
2151
2152 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
2153 pager more.
2154
2155 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
2156 permissions, not write permissions.
2157
2158 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
2159 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
2160
2161 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
2162 distribution.
2163
2164 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2165
2166 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
2167
2168 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
2169 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
2170
2171 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
2172 message contains valid character set.
2173
2174 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
2175 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
2176
2177 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
2178 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
2179
2180 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
2181 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
2182 between an encoded word and normal text.
2183
2184 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
2185 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
2186
2187 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
2188 as a RFC-2047 header field.
2189
2190 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
2191 and -help.
2192
2193 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
2194 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
2195 loops).
2196
2197 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
2198 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
2199
2200 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
2201 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
2202
2203 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
2204
2205 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2206
2207 * Released nmh-0.20.
2208
2209 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
2210
2211 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
2212
2213 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
2214 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
2215 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
2216
2217 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
2218 and the To: line was missing.
2219
2220 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
2221
2222 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2223
2224 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
2225
2226 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
2227 watch the POP transaction.
2228
2229 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
2230 first, and use it if available.
2231
2232 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
2233 first, and use it if available.
2234
2235 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2236
2237 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
2238
2239 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
2240 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
2241 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
2242 sequence line.
2243
2244 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
2245 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
2246 returns the state FLDPLUS.
2247
2248 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
2249 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
2250 lines.
2251
2252 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
2253
2254 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
2255 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
2256
2257 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
2258
2259 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
2260 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
2261
2262 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
2263 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
2264 message to which you are replying.
2265
2266 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
2267 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
2268 making group replies.
2269
2270 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
2271
2272 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2273
2274 * Released nmh-0.19.
2275
2276 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
2277 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
2278
2279 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
2280 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
2281 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
2282 to the end of the man page.
2283
2284 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
2285 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
2286 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
2287 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
2288 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
2289 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
2290
2291 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
2292 pages.
2293
2294 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
2295 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
2296 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
2297
2298 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
2299 the next available number above the message number you wish
2300 to preserve.
2301
2302 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
2303 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
2304
2305 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
2306 file sbr/seq_print.c
2307
2308 * flist will now update the current folder.
2309
2310 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
2311 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
2312 but now undocumented.
2313
2314 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
2315 traversing folders.
2316
2317 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
2318 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
2319
2320 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
2321
2322 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
2323 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
2324
2325 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2326
2327 * Released nmh-0.18.
2328
2329 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
2330 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
2331 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
2332
2333 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
2334 retains the public/private status of sequences.
2335
2336 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
2337 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
2338 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
2339 previous public/private status.
2340
2341 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
2342 correctly.
2343
2344 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
2345 private sequences).
2346
2347 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
2348 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
2349 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
2350
2351 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
2352 take option to determine whether it should get current
2353 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
2354 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
2355
2356 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
2357
2358 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
2359 wait for stopped processes.
2360
2361 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
2362 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
2363
2364 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2365
2366 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
2367
2368 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
2369 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
2370
2371 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
2372 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
2373
2374 * Change the way that memory for message status is
2375 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
2376 the folder/message structure. This required changing
2377 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
2378
2379 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
2380 status allocation).
2381
2382 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2383 the code.
2384
2385 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2386
2387 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2388 the debugging output.
2389
2390 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2391 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2392
2393 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2394
2395 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2396
2397 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2398 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2399
2400 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2401
2402 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2403 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2404 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2405 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2406 in the given sequence.
2407
2408 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2409 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2410 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2411 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2412 subdirectories of a given directory.
2413
2414 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2415 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2416 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2417
2418 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2419 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2420
2421 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2422
2423 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2424 to 0700 (was 0711).
2425
2426 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2427 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2428 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2429
2430 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2431 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2432 are calculated at runtime.
2433
2434 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2435
2436 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2437
2438 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2439 about checking for global mh.profile.
2440
2441 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2442 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2443 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2444 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2445 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2446 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2447
2448 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2449 adding message to folder itself.
2450
2451 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2452 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2453 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2454 instead of exiting.
2455
2456 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2457 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2458 the error EEXIST.
2459
2460 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2461 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2462 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2463
2464 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2465 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2466
2467 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2468 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2469 code to use it yet).
2470
2471 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2472
2473 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2474
2475 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2476 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2477
2478 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2479 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2480
2481 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2482
2483 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2484 to folder_addmsg.c
2485
2486 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2491
2492 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2493
2494 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2495 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2496
2497 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2498
2499 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2500
2501 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2502
2503 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2504
2505 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2506
2507 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2508 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.

2510 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2511 configuration files.
2512
2513 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2514
2515 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2516
2517 * Released nmh-0.17.
2518
2519 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2520
2521 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2522 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2523
2524 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2525 defined.
2526
2527 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2528 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2529
2530 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2531 number of refiled message.
2532
2533 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2534
2535 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2536 for return value of wait().

2538 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2539
2540 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2544 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2545
2546 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2547
2548 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2549 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2550 deal with binary messages, yet).
2551
2552 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2553
2554 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2555
2556 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2557 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2558 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2559 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2560 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2561 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2562
2563 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2564 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2565
2566 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2567 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2568
2569 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2570 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2571 MH-6.8.4 patch).
2572
2573 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2574
2575 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2576
2577 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2578 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2579 composition files.
2580
2581 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2582 files.
2583
2584 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2585
2586 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2587 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2588 which used unsigned chars by default.
2589
2590 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2591
2592 * Released nmh-0.15.
2593
2594 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2595 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2596
2597 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2598
2599 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2600
2601 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2602 return 0.
2603
2604 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2605 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2606 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2607
2608 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2609 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2610
2611 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2612
2613 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2614 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2615
2616 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2617 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2618 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2619 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2620
2621 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2622 and put in own subroutine.
2623
2624 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2625 and put in own subroutine.
2626
2627 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2628 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2629 refile.c to use new routine.
2630

2636 seq_getnum.
2637
2638 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2639 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2640 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2641
2642 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2643 no longer used.
2644
2645 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2646 adding message to sequence.
2647
2648 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2649 corresponding file in sbr.
2650
2651 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2652 file in sbr.
2653
2654 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2655
2656 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2657 all selected messages from a sequence.
2658
2659 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2660 selected messages to a sequence.
2661
2662 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2663 and m_seqok.c.

2678 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2679
2680 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2681
2682 * Released nmh-0.14.

2685 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2686
2687 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2688
2689 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2690 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2691 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2692 environment variable.
2693
2694 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2695 draft folder facility in nmh.
2696
2697 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2698 to fmt_compile.h.
2699
2700 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2701 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2702 fmt_addr.c.
2703
2704 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2705 options.
2706
2707 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2708
2709 * Released nmh-0.13.
2710
2711 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2712 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2713 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2714 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2715 to MAXARGS).
2716
2717 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2718 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2719
2720 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2721
2722 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2723 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2724
2725 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2726
2727 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2728 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2729
2730 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2731
2732 * Released nmh-0.12.
2733
2734 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2735
2736 * Released nmh-0.11.
2737
2738 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2739
2740 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2741 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2742
2743 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2744 mp->attrstats with macros.
2745
2746 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2747 in msh.c instead.
2748
2749 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2750 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2751
2752 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2753 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2754
2755 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2756 will suppress the display of the message header.
2757
2758 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2759
2760 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2761 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2762
2763 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2764
2765 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2766
2767 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2768
2769 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2770 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2771
2772 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2773 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2774
2775 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2776
2777 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2778
2779 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2780 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2781
2782 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2783 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2792 by default.
2793
2794 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2795
2796 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2797 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2798
2799 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2800 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2801
2802 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2803 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2804
2805 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2806

2819 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2820
2821 * Add configure check for killpg.
2822
2823 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
2824 <sys/ioctl.h>.
2825
2826 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2827
2828 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2829
2830 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2831 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2832
2833 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2834
2835 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2836
2837 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2838 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2839
2840 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2841
2842 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2843 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2844
2845 * Released nmh-0.08.
2846
2847 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2848 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2849 locking database itself.
2850
2851 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2852
2853 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2854
2855 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2856 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2857 option.
2858
2859 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2860 rather than mmdf format.
2861
2862 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2863 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2864 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2865 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2866
2867 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2868
2869 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2870
2871 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2872 added to packf.
2873
2874 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2875 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2876 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2877
2878 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2879 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2880 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2881
2882 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2883
2884 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2885 can still easily change this in config.h).
2886
2887 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2888 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2889 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2890
2891 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2892
2893 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2894 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2895

2897
2898 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

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