1 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
3 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
4 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
6 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
7 cat, also define lorder as echo.
9 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
11 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
13 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
14 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
15 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
17 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
19 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
22 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
23 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
25 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
27 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
28 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
30 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
32 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
33 inc does not need to be setgid.
35 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
37 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
38 library, as found on Debian systems.
40 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
42 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
44 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
45 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
46 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
47 case-insensitivity flag.
49 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
51 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
52 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
54 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
56 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
57 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
58 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
59 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
60 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
61 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
62 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
63 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
66 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
67 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
69 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
71 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
72 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
73 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
74 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
75 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
76 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
77 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
78 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
79 the prototype, but never sets it.
81 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
82 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
83 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
84 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
85 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
86 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
88 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
89 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
90 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
91 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
92 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
94 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
96 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
97 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
100 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
101 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
102 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
103 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
104 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
105 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
106 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
108 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
110 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
112 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
113 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
114 this works on other systems.
116 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
118 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
119 checks for write failures.
121 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
123 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
125 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
128 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
130 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
132 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
134 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
135 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
138 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
140 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
141 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
142 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
143 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
145 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
147 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
148 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
151 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
152 as well as Makefiles.
154 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
156 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
157 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
158 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
159 should make maintainability easier.
161 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
162 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
163 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
164 whatever you know works.
166 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
168 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
169 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
170 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
172 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
173 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
174 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
175 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
177 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
178 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
179 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
181 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
182 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
183 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
184 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
185 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
187 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
188 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
189 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
190 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
191 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
192 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
193 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
194 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
195 from the BSD version.
197 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
198 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
199 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
201 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
204 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
207 This happens on solaris:
210 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
211 No manual entry for mts.conf.
215 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
217 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
218 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
220 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
222 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
223 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
224 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
225 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
226 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
227 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
228 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
229 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
230 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
231 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
232 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
234 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
235 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
236 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
237 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
238 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
239 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
242 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
243 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
244 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
245 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
246 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
248 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
249 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
251 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
253 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
254 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
255 to stdin, such as exmh.
257 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
258 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
259 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
262 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
264 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
265 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
266 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
267 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
268 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
269 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
270 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
272 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
274 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
275 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
277 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
279 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
280 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
282 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
284 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
287 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
288 along with any -host or -user option.
290 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
292 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
294 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
295 process was fresh in my mind.
297 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
299 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
300 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
302 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
304 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
306 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
309 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
310 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
311 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
312 part of the program's name.
314 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
315 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
318 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
320 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
321 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
322 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
323 single-character format would cause programs using this
324 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
325 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
326 when the format string was one character. This eventually
327 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
330 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
332 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
333 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
334 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
335 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
336 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
337 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
339 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
340 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
341 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
342 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
343 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
344 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
345 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
346 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
348 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
349 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
350 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
351 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
352 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
353 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
354 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
355 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
356 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
357 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
359 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
361 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
362 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
364 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
365 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
367 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
372 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
374 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
375 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
376 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
377 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
379 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
380 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
381 problem in the routine.
383 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
385 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
386 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
388 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
389 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
390 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
393 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
395 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
396 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
397 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
398 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
399 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
400 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
401 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
402 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
403 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
404 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
406 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
408 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
409 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
410 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
411 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
412 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
413 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
414 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
415 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
416 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
417 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
418 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
419 interesting than a duplication of the default.
421 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
422 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
423 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
424 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
425 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
427 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
430 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
432 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
433 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
434 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
435 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
438 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
440 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
442 * Applied, after some finessing,
443 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
445 Here's a patch that allows you to add
447 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
449 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
450 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
451 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
452 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
454 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
456 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
457 forgetting to do so!).
459 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
460 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
461 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
462 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
463 arguments to enable all three types.
465 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
466 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
468 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
469 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
470 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
471 updated copy of mts.conf.
473 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
475 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
476 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
477 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
479 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
481 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
483 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
484 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
485 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
487 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
488 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
489 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
491 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
492 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
493 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
495 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
497 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
499 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
501 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
503 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
504 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
506 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
507 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
508 certain suffix to run properly.
510 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
511 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
512 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
514 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
515 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
516 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
517 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
518 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
519 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
520 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
522 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
524 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
525 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
526 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
527 until some year far in the future).
529 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
531 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
533 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
534 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
536 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
537 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
540 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
542 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
543 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
544 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
545 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
546 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
547 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
549 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
551 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
553 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
554 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
555 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
557 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
558 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
559 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
560 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
561 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
562 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
565 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
566 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
567 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
568 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
569 of masquerading individually.
571 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
572 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
573 GECOS field delimiters.
575 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
577 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
578 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
579 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
580 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
581 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
582 and explaining the feature.
584 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
586 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
587 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
590 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
591 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
592 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
594 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
595 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
596 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
597 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
599 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
600 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
601 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
604 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
606 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
609 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
611 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
613 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
614 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
615 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
616 quotes embedded in them.
618 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
620 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
621 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
622 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
623 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
624 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
625 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
626 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
629 The other theory is that because you can say something like
630 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
631 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
632 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
633 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
635 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
637 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
639 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
640 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
641 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
642 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
644 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
647 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
649 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
651 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
653 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
654 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
655 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
657 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
660 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
662 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
663 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
664 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
665 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
666 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
667 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
669 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
670 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
672 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
674 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
677 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
679 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
680 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
681 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
684 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
685 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
686 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
687 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
688 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
689 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
690 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
691 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
692 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
693 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
694 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
695 processing that post has).
697 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
699 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
700 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
701 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
702 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
703 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
704 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
707 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
709 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
711 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
713 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
715 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
716 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
718 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
721 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
723 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
724 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
725 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
728 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
730 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
731 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
732 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
733 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
734 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
735 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
737 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
739 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
741 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
743 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
744 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
745 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
746 caught again. This works for now.
748 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
750 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
752 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
753 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
755 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
757 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
758 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
760 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
762 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
764 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
766 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
767 changes. Both need more cleanup.
769 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
771 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
772 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
773 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
774 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
775 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
778 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
780 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
781 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
782 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
784 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
785 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
788 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
790 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
791 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
792 to a directory on another device with more free space.
794 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
796 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
797 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
799 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
801 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
804 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
805 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
807 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
808 macros, regardless of platform.
810 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
811 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
813 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
814 with x-conversions=gzip.
816 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
818 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
821 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
822 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
823 implicit definition of ioctl().
825 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
826 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
827 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
828 want to mess with them.
830 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
832 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
833 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
835 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
836 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
838 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
839 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
840 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
842 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
843 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
844 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
846 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
849 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
852 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
853 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
856 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
857 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
860 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
861 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
865 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
867 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
868 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
869 preventing compilation on at least linux.
871 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
872 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
874 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
876 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
878 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
879 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
880 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
881 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
883 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
884 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
886 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
888 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
890 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
892 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
893 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
895 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
897 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
898 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
900 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
901 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
902 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
903 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
905 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
906 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
908 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
910 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
911 substitute it for mktemp if available.
913 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
915 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
916 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
919 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
921 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
923 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
925 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
926 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
928 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
929 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
930 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
932 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
933 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
934 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
936 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
937 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
938 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
940 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
941 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
944 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
945 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
947 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
948 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
950 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
953 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
954 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
955 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
957 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
958 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
960 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
961 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
962 <elleron@servtech.com>.
964 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
965 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
968 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
969 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
971 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
972 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
973 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
974 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
976 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
977 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
979 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
983 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
984 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
985 would not be changed.
987 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
988 one from the Apache web server.
990 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
991 (this should have been done a long time ago).
993 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
994 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
995 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
997 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
999 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1001 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1002 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1005 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1006 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1007 removes a bad race condition.
1009 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1012 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1013 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1014 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1016 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1017 sequence information.
1019 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1020 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1022 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1025 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1028 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1030 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1031 interpret 034 as octal.
1033 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1035 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1036 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1038 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1039 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1041 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1042 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1044 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1045 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1047 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1048 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1050 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1051 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1052 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1054 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1055 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1056 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1058 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1060 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1062 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1063 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1066 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1068 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1069 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1071 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1072 header field information.
1074 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1075 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1077 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1078 values when parsing a content.
1080 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1081 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1083 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1084 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1086 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1087 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1089 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1090 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1092 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1094 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1096 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1098 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1100 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1101 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1104 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1105 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1107 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1108 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1109 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1110 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1111 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1112 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1115 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1117 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1118 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1119 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1121 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1122 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1124 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1126 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1127 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1128 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1129 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1131 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1132 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1135 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1136 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1137 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1138 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1141 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1143 * Released nmh-0.27.
1145 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1146 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1148 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1149 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1150 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1151 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1154 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1155 mhbuild returns an error.
1157 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1158 rename the draft file.
1160 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1161 use a global variable.
1163 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1164 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1166 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1167 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1169 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1170 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1171 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1173 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1174 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1176 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1177 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1180 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1181 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1184 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1185 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1187 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1188 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1189 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1191 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1192 to new function output_content_folder.
1194 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1195 new function output_content_file.
1197 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1198 to new function parse_format_string.
1200 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1201 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1202 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1203 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1205 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1206 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1207 message/external file from ftp.
1209 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1210 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1211 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1213 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1214 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1217 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1220 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1221 new file mhstoresbr.c
1223 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1226 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1227 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1229 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1230 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1232 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1233 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1234 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1236 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1238 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1240 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1241 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1244 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1245 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1247 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1250 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1252 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1254 * Released nmh-0.26.
1256 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1257 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1258 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1259 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1261 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1262 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1263 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1264 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1265 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1267 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1268 But it is not on by default.
1270 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1271 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1273 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1275 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1277 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1279 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1281 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1282 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1284 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1286 * Released nmh-0.25.
1288 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1289 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1290 uses the original name of the library.
1292 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1293 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1296 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1297 list_content and list_debug.
1299 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1301 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1302 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1304 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1306 * Released nmh-0.24.
1308 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1310 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1311 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1313 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1314 large sequence line.
1316 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1318 * Released nmh-0.23.
1320 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1322 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1323 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1324 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1325 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1327 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1328 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1331 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1333 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1335 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1337 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1338 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1340 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1341 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1343 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1344 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1346 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1347 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1349 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1351 * Released nmh-0.22.
1353 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1354 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1356 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1358 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1359 mh-profile(5) man page.
1361 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1362 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1364 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1366 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1368 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1369 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1371 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1373 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1374 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1375 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1377 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1378 source message on the standard input.
1380 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1382 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1383 rather than -rfc934mode.
1385 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1386 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1389 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1390 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1392 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1395 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1397 * Released nmh-0.21.
1399 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1400 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1402 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1405 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1406 to use for text contents.
1408 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1410 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1412 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1414 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1416 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1417 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1419 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1420 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1421 spaces between encoded word are.
1423 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1425 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1426 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1428 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1429 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1430 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1432 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1434 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1435 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1437 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1439 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1441 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1442 ISO-8859-X character set.
1444 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1447 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1448 permissions, not write permissions.
1450 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1451 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1453 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1456 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1458 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1460 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1461 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1463 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1464 message contains valid character set.
1466 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1467 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1469 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1470 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1472 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1473 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1474 between an encoded word and normal text.
1476 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1477 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1479 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1480 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1482 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1485 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1486 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1489 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1490 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1492 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1493 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1495 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1497 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1499 * Released nmh-0.20.
1501 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1503 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1505 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1506 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1507 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1509 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1510 and the To: line was missing.
1512 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1514 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1516 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1518 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1519 watch the POP transaction.
1521 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1522 first, and use it if available.
1524 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1525 first, and use it if available.
1527 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1529 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1531 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1532 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1533 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1536 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1537 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1538 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1540 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1541 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1544 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1546 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1547 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1549 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1551 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1552 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1554 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1555 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1556 message to which you are replying.
1558 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1559 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1560 making group replies.
1562 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1564 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1566 * Released nmh-0.19.
1568 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1569 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1571 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1572 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1573 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1574 to the end of the man page.
1576 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1577 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1578 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1579 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1580 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1581 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1583 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1586 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1587 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1588 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1590 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1591 the next available number above the message number you wish
1594 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1595 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1597 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1598 file sbr/seq_print.c
1600 * flist will now update the current folder.
1602 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1603 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1604 but now undocumented.
1606 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1609 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1610 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1612 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1614 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1615 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1617 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1619 * Released nmh-0.18.
1621 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1622 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1623 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1625 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1626 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1628 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1629 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1630 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1631 previous public/private status.
1633 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1636 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1639 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1640 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1641 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1643 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1644 take option to determine whether it should get current
1645 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1646 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1648 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1650 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1651 wait for stopped processes.
1653 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1654 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1656 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1658 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1660 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1661 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1663 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1664 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1666 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1667 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1668 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1669 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1671 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1674 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1677 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1679 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1680 the debugging output.
1682 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1683 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1685 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1687 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1689 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1690 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1692 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1694 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1695 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1696 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1697 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1698 in the given sequence.
1700 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1701 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1702 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1703 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1704 subdirectories of a given directory.
1706 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1707 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1708 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1710 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1711 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1713 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1715 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1718 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1719 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1720 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1722 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1723 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1724 are calculated at runtime.
1726 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1728 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1730 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1731 about checking for global mh.profile.
1733 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1734 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1735 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1736 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1737 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1738 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1740 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1741 adding message to folder itself.
1743 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1744 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1745 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1748 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1749 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1752 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1753 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1754 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1756 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1757 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1759 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1760 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1761 code to use it yet).

1811 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1813 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1814 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".

1819 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1820 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1822 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1823 number of refiled message.
1825 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1827 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1828 for return value of wait().

1838 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1840 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1841 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1842 deal with binary messages, yet).
1844 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1846 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1848 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1849 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1850 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1851 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1852 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1853 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1855 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1856 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).

1870 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1873 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1876 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1878 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1879 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines

1891 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1893 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters

1897 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1898 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1900 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1901 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1903 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1905 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since

1908 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1909 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1910 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1911 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1913 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1914 and put in own subroutine.
1916 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1917 and put in own subroutine.

1920 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1921 refile.c to use new routine.

1925 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1927 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1930 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1931 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1932 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1934 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1937 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before

1952 selected messages to a sequence.
1954 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1957 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1959 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
1960 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
1962 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1964 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2001 * Released nmh-0.13.
2003 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2004 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2005 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2006 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2009 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2010 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2012 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2014 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2015 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2017 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2019 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2044 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2045 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2047 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2048 will suppress the display of the message header.
2050 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2052 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2053 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2055 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2057 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2059 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2061 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2062 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2064 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2065 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2067 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2069 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2071 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2072 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2074 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2075 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2077 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2079 * Released nmh-0.10.

2089 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2091 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2092 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2094 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2095 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2097 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2099 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2100 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2102 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2104 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because

2134 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2135 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2137 * Released nmh-0.08.
2139 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2140 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2141 locking database itself.

2145 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2147 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2148 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2151 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2152 rather than mmdf format.
2154 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2155 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2156 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2157 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2159 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2161 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2163 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2166 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2167 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2168 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2170 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2171 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to

2174 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2176 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2177 can still easily change this in config.h).
2179 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2180 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2181 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2183 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2185 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather

2200 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2202 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2203 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2206 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2207 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2210 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2212 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2214 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2216 * Added configure check for tzset.

2220 * Released nmh-0.06.
2222 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2223 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2225 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2226 many such machines around anymore.
2228 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2229 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2231 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2232 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2234 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2236 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2237 pre-generated version if necessary.
2239 * Released nmh-0.05.
2241 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2242 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2243 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2244 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2246 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2247 be linked in one pass.
2249 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2251 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2252 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2254 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2256 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2258 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2260 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2261 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2262 become the current folder.
2264 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2266 * Released nmh-0.04.
2268 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2271 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2273 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2274 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2275 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2277 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2279 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2280 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2282 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2284 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2285 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2288 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2289 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2291 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2293 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2294 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2295 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2296 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2297 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2298 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2300 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2302 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2303 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2305 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2306 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2308 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2310 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2311 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2313 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2315 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2316 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2317 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2319 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2321 * Released nmh-0.03.
2323 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2324 .mh_sequence file existed.
2326 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2327 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2329 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2330 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2333 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2335 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2338 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2340 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2341 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2342 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2344 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2346 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2347 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2348 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2350 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2352 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2353 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2355 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2357 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2359 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2360 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2361 directory from where the source code is located.
2363 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2365 * Released nmh-0.02.
2367 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2372 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2374 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2375 and sys_nerr directly.

2386 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2387 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path

2389 rather than in script.
2391 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2393 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2395 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2396 macro defined on Solaris.
2398 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2400 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2401 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2403 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2404 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2405 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man

2409 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2411 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2412 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.

2417 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2419 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2421 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included

2424 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2426 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2427 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2429 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2431 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2432 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2433 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2434 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2435 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2436 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2438 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2440 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2442 * Released nmh-0.01.
2444 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2445 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2446 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2449 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2451 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2454 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2457 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2459 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2461 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2462 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2463 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2464 script to find_program.
2466 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2468 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2469 speed up -recurse option.
2471 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2472 yet, but it compiles :-)
2474 * Changed default location for install to
2475 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2476 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2477 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2480 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2481 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2482 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
