Included changes to dtimep.lex to remove military zone parsing.
[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
2
3 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
4 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
5 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
6 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
7 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
8 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
9 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
10 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
11 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
12 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
13 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
14
15 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
16
17 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
18 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
19 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
20 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
21 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
22 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
23 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
24 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
25 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
26
27 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
28
29 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
30 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
31 able to access them.
32
33 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
34
35 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
36 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
37
38 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
39
40 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
41 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
42 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
43 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
44
45 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
46
47 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
48 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
49 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
50 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
51 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
52
53 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
54 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
55
56 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
57
58 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
59
60 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
61 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
62 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
63 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
64
65 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
66 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
67 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
68 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
69
70 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
71 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
72 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
73 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
74
75 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
76 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
77 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
78
79 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
80
81 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
82 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
83 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
84 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
85 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
86 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
87 my users.
88
89 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
90 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
91
92 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
93 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
94
95 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
96
97 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
98
99 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
100
101 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
102 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
103 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
104 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
105
106 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
107
108 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
109 be easily changed from "," to "#".
110
111 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
112
113 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
114
115 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
116 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
117 README.developers.
118
119 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
120
121 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
122 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
123 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
124 but not for the subsequent data stream.
125
126 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
127
128 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
129 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
130 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
131 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
132 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
133
134 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
135
136 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
137 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
138
139 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
140 cat, also define lorder as echo.
141
142 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
143
144 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
145
146 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
147 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
148 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
149
150 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
151
152 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
153 #if 0 block).
154
155 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
156 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
157
158 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
159
160 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
161 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
162
163 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
164
165 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
166 inc does not need to be setgid.
167
168 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
169
170 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
171 library, as found on Debian systems.
172
173 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
174
175 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
176
177 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
178 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
179 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
180 case-insensitivity flag.
181
182 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
183
184 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
185 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
186
187 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
188
189 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
190 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
191 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
192 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
193 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
194 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
195 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
196 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
197 getting moved aside).
198
199 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
200 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
201
202 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
203
204 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
205 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
206 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
207 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
208 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
209 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
210 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
211 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
212 the prototype, but never sets it.
213
214 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
215 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
216 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
217 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
218 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
219 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
220
221 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
222 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
223 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
224 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
225 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
226
227 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
228
229 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
230 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
231 of tws.h.
232
233 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
234 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
235 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
236 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
237 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
238 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
239 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
240
241 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
242
243 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
244
245 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
246 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
247 this works on other systems.
248
249 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
250
251 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
252 checks for write failures.
253
254 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
255
256 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
257
258 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
259 is patched in.
260
261 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
262
263 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
264
265 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
266
267 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
268 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
269 a buffer boundary.
270
271 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
272
273 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
274 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
275 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
276 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
277
278 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
279
280 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
281 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
282 place.
283
284 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
285 as well as Makefiles.
286
287 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
288
289 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
290 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
291 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
292 should make maintainability easier.
293
294 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
295 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
296 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
297 whatever you know works.
298
299 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
300
301 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
302 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
303 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
304
305 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
306 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
307 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
308 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
309
310 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
311 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
312 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
313
314 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
315 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
316 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
317 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
318 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
319
320 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
321 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
322 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
323 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
324 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
325 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
326 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
327 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
328 from the BSD version.
329
330 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
331 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
332 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
333
334 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
335 in ruserpass.c also.
336
337 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
338 report:
339
340 This happens on solaris:
341
342 % man mts.conf
343 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
344 No manual entry for mts.conf.
345
346 It is fixed by
347
348 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
349
350 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
351 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
352
353 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
354
355 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
356 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
357 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
358 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
359 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
360 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
361 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
362 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
363 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
364 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
365 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
366
367 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
368 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
369 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
370 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
371 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
372 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
373 out of nowhere.
374
375 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
376 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
377 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
378 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
379 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
380
381 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
382 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
383
384 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
385
386 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
387 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
388 to stdin, such as exmh.
389
390 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
391 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
392 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
393 other files.
394
395 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
396
397 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
398 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
399 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
400 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
401 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
402 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
403 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
404
405 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
406
407 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
408 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
409
410 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
411
412 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
413 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
414
415 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
416
417 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
418 --enable-apop.
419
420 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
421 along with any -host or -user option.
422
423 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
424
425 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
426
427 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
428 process was fresh in my mind.
429
430 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
431
432 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
433 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
434
435 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
436
437 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
438
439 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
440 patch:
441
442 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
443 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
444 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
445 part of the program's name.
446
447 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
448 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
449 to quote.
450
451 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
452
453 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
454 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
455 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
456 single-character format would cause programs using this
457 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
458 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
459 when the format string was one character. This eventually
460 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
461 in the array.
462
463 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
464
465 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
466 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
467 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
468 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
469 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
470 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
471
472 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
473 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
474 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
475 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
476 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
477 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
478 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
479 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
480
481 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
482 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
483 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
484 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
485 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
486 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
487 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
488 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
489 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
490 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
491
492 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
493
494 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
495 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
496
497 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
498 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
499
500 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
501 exit 2
502
503 and:
504
505 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
506
507 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
508 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
509 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
510 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
511
512 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
513 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
514 problem in the routine.
515
516 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
517
518 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
519 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
520
521 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
522 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
523 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
524 spool somehow.
525
526 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
527
528 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
529 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
530 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
531 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
532 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
533 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
534 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
535 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
536 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
537 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
538
539 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
540
541 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
542 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
543 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
544 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
545 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
546 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
547 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
548 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
549 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
550 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
551 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
552 interesting than a duplication of the default.
553
554 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
555 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
556 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
557 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
558 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
559
560 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
561 POP is enabled.
562
563 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
564
565 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
566 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
567 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
568 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
569 here.
570
571 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
572
573 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
574
575 * Applied, after some finessing,
576 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
577
578 Here's a patch that allows you to add
579
580 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
581
582 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
583 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
584 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
585 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
586
587 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
588
589 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
590 forgetting to do so!).
591
592 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
593 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
594 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
595 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
596 arguments to enable all three types.
597
598 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
599 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
600
601 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
602 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
603 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
604 updated copy of mts.conf.
605
606 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
607
608 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
609 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
610 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
611
612 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
613 and
614 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
615
616 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
617 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
618 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
619
620 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
621 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
622 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
623
624 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
625 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
626 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
627
628 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
629
630 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
631
632 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
633
634 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
635
636 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
637 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
638
639 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
640 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
641 certain suffix to run properly.
642
643 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
644 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
645 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
646
647 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
648 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
649 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
650 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
651 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
652 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
653 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
654
655 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
656
657 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
658 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
659 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
660 until some year far in the future).
661
662 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
663
664 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
665
666 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
667 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
668
669 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
670 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
671 corrupted.
672
673 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
674
675 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
676 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
677 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
678 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
679 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
680 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
681
682 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
683
684 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
685
686 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
687 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
688 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
689
690 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
691 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
692 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
693 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
694 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
695 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
696 leads me to:
697
698 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
699 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
700 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
701 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
702 of masquerading individually.
703
704 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
705 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
706 GECOS field delimiters.
707
708 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
709
710 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
711 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
712 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
713 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
714 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
715 and explaining the feature.
716
717 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
718
719 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
720 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
721 so).
722
723 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
724 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
725 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
726
727 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
728 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
729 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
730 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
731
732 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
733 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
734 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
735 anywhere.
736
737 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
738
739 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
740 code to be executed.
741
742 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
743
744 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
745
746 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
747 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
748 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
749 quotes embedded in them.
750
751 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
752
753 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
754 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
755 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
756 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
757 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
758 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
759 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
760 allowed to specify.
761
762 The other theory is that because you can say something like
763 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
764 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
765 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
766 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
767
768 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
769
770 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
771
772 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
773 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
774 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
775 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
776
777 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
778 KPOP server.
779
780 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
781
782 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
783
784 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
785
786 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
787 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
788 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
789
790 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
791 mhn.defaults.sh.
792
793 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
794
795 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
796 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
797 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
798 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
799 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
800 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
801
802 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
803 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
804
805 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
806
807 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
808 page.
809
810 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
811
812 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
813 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
814 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
815 to be setgid.
816
817 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
818 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
819 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
820 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
821 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
822 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
823 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
824 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
825 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
826 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
827 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
828 processing that post has).
829
830 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
831
832 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
833 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
834 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
835 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
836 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
837 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
838 Solaris 2.6).
839
840 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
841
842 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
843
844 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
845
846 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
847
848 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
849 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
850
851 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
852 command-line.
853
854 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
855
856 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
857 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
858 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
859 some development.
860
861 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
862
863 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
864 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
865 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
866 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
867 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
868 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
869
870 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
871
872 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
873
874 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
875
876 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
877 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
878 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
879 caught again. This works for now.
880
881 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
882
883 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
884
885 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
886 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
887
888 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
889
890 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
891 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
892
893 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
894
895 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
896
897 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
898
899 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
900 changes. Both need more cleanup.
901
902 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
903
904 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
905 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
906 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
907 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
908 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
909 multiple purposes.
910
911 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
912
913 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
914 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
915 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
916
917 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
918 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
919 config.guess.
920
921 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
922
923 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
924 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
925 to a directory on another device with more free space.
926
927 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
928
929 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
930 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
931
932 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
933
934 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
935 distributed.
936
937 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
938 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
939
940 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
941 macros, regardless of platform.
942
943 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
944 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
945
946 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
947 with x-conversions=gzip.
948
949 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
950
951 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
952 post.c.
953
954 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
955 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
956 implicit definition of ioctl().
957
958 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
959 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
960 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
961 want to mess with them.
962
963 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
964
965 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
966 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
967
968 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
969 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
970
971 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
972 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
973 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
974
975 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
976 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
977 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
978
979 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
980 function initgroups.
981
982 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
983 function.
984
985 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
986 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
987 to fix warnings.
988
989 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
990 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
991 prevent warnings.
992
993 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
994 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
995 statements).
996
997
998 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
999
1000 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1001 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1002 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1003
1004 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1005 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1006
1007 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1008
1009 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1010
1011 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1012 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1013 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1014 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1015
1016 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1017 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1018
1019 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1020
1021 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1022
1023 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1024
1025 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1026 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1027
1028 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1029
1030 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1031 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1032
1033 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1034 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1035 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1036 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1037
1038 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1039 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1040
1041 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1042
1043 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1044 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1045
1046 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1047
1048 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1049 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1050 proper #defines.
1051
1052 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1053
1054 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1055
1056 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1057
1058 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1059 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1060
1061 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1062 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1063 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1064
1065 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1066 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1067 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1068
1069 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1070 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1071 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1072
1073 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1074 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1075 <swb@nconnect.net>.
1076
1077 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1078 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1079
1080 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1081 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1082
1083 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1084 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1085
1086 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1087 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1088 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1089
1090 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1091 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1092
1093 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1094 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1095 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1096
1097 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1098 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1099 <rmg@netapp.com>.
1100
1101 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1102 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1103
1104 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1105 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1106 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1107 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1108
1109 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1110 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1111
1112 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1113
1114 * Released nmh-1.0.
1115
1116 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1117 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1118 would not be changed.
1119
1120 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1121 one from the Apache web server.
1122
1123 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1124 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1125
1126 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1127 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1128 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1129
1130 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1131
1132 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1133
1134 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1135 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1136 verbose printing).
1137
1138 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1139 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1140 removes a bad race condition.
1141
1142 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1143 style drop file.
1144
1145 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1146 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1147 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1148
1149 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1150 sequence information.
1151
1152 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1153 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1154
1155 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1156 count.
1157
1158 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1159 is empty.
1160
1161 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1162
1163 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1164 interpret 034 as octal.
1165
1166 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1167
1168 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1169 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1170
1171 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1172 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1173
1174 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1175 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1176
1177 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1178 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1179
1180 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1181 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1182
1183 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1184 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1185 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1186
1187 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1188 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1189 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1190
1191 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1192
1193 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1194
1195 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1196 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1197 file "mhoutsbr.c".
1198
1199 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1200
1201 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1202 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1203
1204 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1205 header field information.
1206
1207 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1208 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1209
1210 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1211 values when parsing a content.
1212
1213 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1214 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1215
1216 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1217 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1218
1219 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1220 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1221
1222 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1223 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1224
1225 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1226
1227 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1228
1229 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1230
1231 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1232
1233 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1234 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1235 read.
1236
1237 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1238 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1239
1240 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1241 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1242 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1243 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1244 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1245 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1246 be setuid/setgid.
1247
1248 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1249
1250 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1251 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1252 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1253
1254 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1255 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1256
1257 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1258
1259 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1260 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1261 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1262 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1263
1264 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1265 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1266 fix).
1267
1268 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1269 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1270 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1271 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1272 arguments.
1273
1274 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1275
1276 * Released nmh-0.27.
1277
1278 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1279 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1280
1281 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1282 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1283 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1284 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1285 with no arguments.
1286
1287 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1288 mhbuild returns an error.
1289
1290 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1291 rename the draft file.
1292
1293 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1294 use a global variable.
1295
1296 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1297 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1298
1299 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1300 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1301
1302 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1303 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1304 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1305
1306 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1307 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1308
1309 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1310 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1311 this new page.
1312
1313 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1314 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1315 viamail program.
1316
1317 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1318 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1319
1320 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1321 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1322 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1323
1324 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1325 to new function output_content_folder.
1326
1327 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1328 new function output_content_file.
1329
1330 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1331 to new function parse_format_string.
1332
1333 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1334 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1335 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1336 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1337
1338 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1339 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1340 message/external file from ftp.
1341
1342 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1343 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1344 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1345
1346 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1347 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1348 mhfree.c.
1349
1350 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1351 file mhshowsbr.c.
1352
1353 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1354 new file mhstoresbr.c
1355
1356 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1357 file mhparse.c.
1358
1359 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1360 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1361
1362 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1363 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1364
1365 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1366 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1367 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1368
1369 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1370
1371 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1372
1373 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1374 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1375 to main().
1376
1377 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1378 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1379
1380 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1381 to mhparse.c).
1382
1383 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1384
1385 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1386
1387 * Released nmh-0.26.
1388
1389 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1390 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1391 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1392 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1393
1394 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1395 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1396 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1397 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1398 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1399
1400 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1401 But it is not on by default.
1402
1403 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1404 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1405
1406 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1407
1408 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1409
1410 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1411
1412 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1413
1414 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1415 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1416
1417 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1418
1419 * Released nmh-0.25.
1420
1421 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1422 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1423 uses the original name of the library.
1424
1425 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1426 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1427 links remaining.
1428
1429 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1430 list_content and list_debug.
1431
1432 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1433
1434 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1435 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.

1439 * Released nmh-0.24.
1440
1441 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1442
1443 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1444 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1445
1446 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1447 large sequence line.
1448
1449 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1452
1453 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1454
1455 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1456 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1457 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1458 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1459
1460 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1461 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1462 file h/mhnsbr.h.
1463
1464 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c

1466 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1467
1468 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1469
1470 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1471 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1472
1473 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1474 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1475
1476 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1477 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1478
1479 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1480 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1481

1483
1484 * Released nmh-0.22.
1485
1486 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1487 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1488
1489 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1490
1491 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1492 mh-profile(5) man page.
1493
1494 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1495 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1496
1497 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1498
1499 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1500
1501 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1502 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1503
1504 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1505
1506 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1507 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1508 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1509
1510 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1511 source message on the standard input.
1512
1513 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1514
1515 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1516 rather than -rfc934mode.
1517
1518 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1519 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1520 only one message.
1521
1522 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1523 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1524
1525 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1526 it is still needed.
1527
1528 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1529
1530 * Released nmh-0.21.
1531
1532 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1533 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1534
1535 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1536 encoding to use.
1537
1538 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1539 to use for text contents.
1540
1541 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1542
1543 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1544
1545 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1546
1547 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1548
1549 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1550 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1551
1552 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1553 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1554 spaces between encoded word are.
1555
1556 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1557
1558 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1559 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1560
1561 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1562 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1563 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1564
1565 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1566
1567 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1568 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1569
1570 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1571
1572 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1573
1574 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1575 ISO-8859-X character set.
1576
1577 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1578 pager more.
1579
1580 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1581 permissions, not write permissions.
1582
1583 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1584 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1585
1586 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1587 distribution.
1588
1589 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1590
1591 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1592
1593 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1594 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1595
1596 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1597 message contains valid character set.
1598
1599 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1600 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1601
1602 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1603 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1604
1605 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1606 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1607 between an encoded word and normal text.
1608
1609 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1610 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1611
1612 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1613 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1614
1615 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1616 and -help.
1617
1618 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1619 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1620 loops).
1621
1622 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1623 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1624
1625 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1626 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1627
1628 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1629
1630 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1631
1632 * Released nmh-0.20.
1633
1634 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1635
1636 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1637
1638 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1639 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1640 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1641
1642 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1643 and the To: line was missing.
1644
1645 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1646
1647 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1648
1649 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1650
1651 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1652 watch the POP transaction.
1653
1654 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1655 first, and use it if available.
1656
1657 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1658 first, and use it if available.
1659
1660 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1661
1662 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1663
1664 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1665 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1666 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1667 sequence line.
1668
1669 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1670 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1671 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1672
1673 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1674 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1675 lines.
1676
1677 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1678
1679 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1680 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1681
1682 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1683
1684 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1685 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1686
1687 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1688 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1689 message to which you are replying.
1690
1691 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1692 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1693 making group replies.
1694
1695 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1696
1697 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1698
1699 * Released nmh-0.19.
1700
1701 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1702 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1703
1704 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1705 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1706 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1707 to the end of the man page.
1708
1709 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1710 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1711 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1712 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1713 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1714 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1715
1716 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1717 pages.
1718
1719 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1720 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1721 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1722
1723 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1724 the next available number above the message number you wish
1725 to preserve.
1726
1727 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1728 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1729
1730 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1731 file sbr/seq_print.c
1732
1733 * flist will now update the current folder.
1734
1735 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1736 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1737 but now undocumented.
1738
1739 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1740 traversing folders.
1741
1742 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1743 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1744
1745 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1746
1747 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1748 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1749
1750 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1751
1752 * Released nmh-0.18.
1753
1754 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1755 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1756 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1757
1758 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1759 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1760
1761 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1762 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1763 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1764 previous public/private status.
1765
1766 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1767 correctly.
1768
1769 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1770 private sequences).
1771
1772 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1773 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1774 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1775
1776 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1777 take option to determine whether it should get current
1778 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1779 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1780
1781 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1782
1783 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1784 wait for stopped processes.
1785
1786 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1787 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1788
1789 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1790
1791 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1792
1793 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1794 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1795
1796 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1797 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1798
1799 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1800 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1801 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1802 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1803
1804 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1805 status allocation).
1806
1807 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1808 the code.
1809
1810 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1811
1812 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1813 the debugging output.
1814
1815 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1816 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1817
1818 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1819
1820 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1821
1822 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1823 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1824
1825 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1826
1827 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1828 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1829 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1830 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1831 in the given sequence.
1832
1833 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1834 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1835 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1836 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1837 subdirectories of a given directory.
1838
1839 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1840 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1841 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1842
1843 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1844 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1845
1846 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1847
1848 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1849 to 0700 (was 0711).
1850
1851 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1852 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1853 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1854
1855 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1856 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1857 are calculated at runtime.
1858
1859 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1860
1861 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1862
1863 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1864 about checking for global mh.profile.
1865
1866 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1867 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1868 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1869 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1870 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1871 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1872
1873 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1874 adding message to folder itself.
1875
1876 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1877 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1878 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1879 instead of exiting.
1880
1881 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1882 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1883 the error EEXIST.
1884
1885 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1886 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1887 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1888
1889 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1890 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1891
1892 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1893 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1894 code to use it yet).
1895
1896 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1897
1898 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1899
1900 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1901 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1902
1903 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1904 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1905
1906 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1907
1908 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1909 to folder_addmsg.c
1910
1911 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1912
1913 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1914
1915 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1916
1917 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1918
1919 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1920 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1921
1922 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1923
1924 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1925
1926 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1927
1928 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1929
1930 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1931
1932 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1933 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1934
1935 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1936 configuration files.
1937
1938 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1939
1940 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1941
1942 * Released nmh-0.17.
1943
1944 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1945
1946 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1947 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1948
1949 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1950 defined.
1951
1952 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1953 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1954
1955 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1956 number of refiled message.
1957
1958 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1959
1960 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1961 for return value of wait().
1962
1963 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1964
1965 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1966

1970
1971 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1972
1973 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1974 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1975 deal with binary messages, yet).
1976
1977 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1978
1979 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1980
1981 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1982 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1983 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1984 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1985 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1986 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1987
1988 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1989 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1990
1991 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1992 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1993
1994 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1995 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and

1997
1998 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1999
2000 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2001
2002 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2003 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2004 composition files.
2005
2006 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2007 files.
2008
2009 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2010
2011 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2012 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2013 which used unsigned chars by default.
2014
2015 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2016
2017 * Released nmh-0.15.
2018

2021
2022 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2023
2024 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2025
2026 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2027 return 0.
2028
2029 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2030 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2031 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2032
2033 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2034 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2035
2036 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2037
2038 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2039 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2040
2041 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2042 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2043 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2044 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2045
2046 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2047 and put in own subroutine.
2048
2049 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2050 and put in own subroutine.
2051
2052 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2053 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2054 refile.c to use new routine.

2057
2058 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.

2061 seq_getnum.
2062
2063 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2064 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2065 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2066
2067 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2068 no longer used.
2069
2070 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2071 adding message to sequence.
2072
2073 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2074 corresponding file in sbr.
2075
2076 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2077 file in sbr.
2078
2079 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2080
2081 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2082 all selected messages from a sequence.
2083
2084 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2085 selected messages to a sequence.
2086
2087 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2088 and m_seqok.c.

2113
2114 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2115 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2116 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2117 environment variable.
2118
2119 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2120 draft folder facility in nmh.

2133
2134 * Released nmh-0.13.
2135
2136 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2137 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2138 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2139 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2140 to MAXARGS).
2141
2142 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2143 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2144
2145 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2146
2147 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2148 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2149
2150 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2151
2152 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2153 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

2162
2163 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2164
2165 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2166 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2167
2168 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2169 mp->attrstats with macros.
2170
2171 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2172 in msh.c instead.
2173
2174 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2175 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2176
2177 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2178 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2179
2180 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2181 will suppress the display of the message header.
2182
2183 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2184
2185 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2189
2190 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.

2193
2194 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2195 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2196
2197 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2198 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2199
2200 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2201
2202 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2203
2204 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2205 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2206
2207 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2208 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2218
2219 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2220
2221 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2222 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2223
2224 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2225 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2226
2227 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2228 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.

2251 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2252
2253 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2254
2255 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2256 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2257
2258 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2259
2260 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2261
2262 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2263 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2264
2265 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2266
2267 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2268 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2269
2270 * Released nmh-0.08.
2271
2272 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2273 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2274 locking database itself.
2275
2276 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2277
2278 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2279
2280 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2281 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2282 option.
2283
2284 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2285 rather than mmdf format.
2286
2287 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2288 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2289 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2290 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2291
2292 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2293
2294 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2295
2296 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2297 added to packf.
2298
2299 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2300 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2301 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2302
2303 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2304 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2305 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2306
2307 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2308
2309 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2310 can still easily change this in config.h).
2311
2312 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2313 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2314 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2315
2316 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2317
2318 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2319 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2320
2321 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2322
2323 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

2332 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2333 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2334
2335 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2336 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2337 on SCO 5.x.
2338
2339 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2340 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2341
2342 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2343 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2344
2345 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2346
2347 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2348
2349 * Added configure check for tzset.
2350
2351 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2352
2353 * Released nmh-0.06.
2354
2355 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2356 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2357
2358 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2359 many such machines around anymore.
2360
2361 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2362 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2363
2364 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2365 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2366
2367 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2369 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2370 pre-generated version if necessary.
2371
2372 * Released nmh-0.05.
2373
2374 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2375 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2376 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2377 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2378
2379 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2380 be linked in one pass.
2381
2382 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2383
2384 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2385 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2386
2387 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2388
2389 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2390
2391 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2392
2393 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2394 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2395 become the current folder.
2396
2397 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2398
2399 * Released nmh-0.04.

2405
2406 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2407 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2408 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2409
2410 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2411
2412 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2413 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2414
2415 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2416
2417 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2418 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2419 using POP.
2420
2421 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2422 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2423
2424 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2425
2426 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2427 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2428 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2429 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2430 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2431 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2432
2433 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2434
2435 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2436 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2437
2438 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2439 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2440
2441 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2442
2443 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2444 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2445
2446 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2447
2448 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2449 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2450 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2451
2452 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2453
2454 * Released nmh-0.03.
2455
2456 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2457 .mh_sequence file existed.
2458
2459 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2460 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2461
2462 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2463 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2464 man page.
2465
2466 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2467
2468 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2469 flist man page.
2470
2471 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2472
2473 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2474 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2475 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2476
2477 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2478
2479 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2480 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2481 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2482
2483 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2484
2485 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2486 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2487
2488 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2489
2490 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2491
2492 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2493 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2494 directory from where the source code is located.
2495
2496 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2497
2498 * Released nmh-0.02.
2499
2500 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2501
2502 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
2503 and rcvtty.
2504
2505 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2506
2507 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2508 and sys_nerr directly.
2509
2510 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2511
2512 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2513
2514 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2515
2516 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2517
2518 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2519 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2520 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2521 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2522 rather than in script.
2523
2524 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2525
2526 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2527
2528 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2529 macro defined on Solaris.
2530
2531 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2532
2533 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2534 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2535
2536 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2537 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2538 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2539 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2540 options if enabled.
2541
2542 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2543
2544 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2545 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2546
2547 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2548 correctly found.
2549
2550 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2551
2552 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2553
2554 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2555 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2556
2557 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2558
2559 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2560 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2561
2562 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2563
2564 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2565 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2566 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2567 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2568 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2569 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2570
2571 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2572
2573 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2574
2575 * Released nmh-0.01.
2576
2577 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2578 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2579 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2580 have POSIX signals.
2581
2582 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2583
2584 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2585 their man pages.
2586
2587 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2588
2589 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2590 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2591
2592 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2593
2594 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2595 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2596 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2597 script to find_program.
2598
2599 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2600
2601 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2602 speed up -recurse option.
2603
2604 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2605 yet, but it compiles :-)
2606
2607 * Changed default location for install to
2608 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2609 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2610 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2611 level Makefile.
2612
2613 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2614 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2615 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
