1 Fri Jan 19 21:22:08 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
3 * First round of manpage updates finished. They
4 are standardized on -man macros, with minimal
7 * man/tmac.h.in is no longer needed, since the
8 manpages do not depend on them anymore. Note:
9 strict "man" programs that didn't allow ".so"
10 sourcing outside the man tree will now format
11 the man pages correctly.
13 * man/vmh.1 is no longer built, since uip/vmh isn't
15 Tue Jan 9 6:01:22 2001 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
17 * Finished manpages ali-prev
19 * Removed deprecated files from the repository.
20 Specifically, those rooted in zotnet/ and mts/sendmail
21 mts/mmdf. "cvs update -dP" will give a pruned directory
24 * Updated docs/Makefile.in to include README.manpages, and
25 uip/Makefile.in to include popi.c (which isn't being built,
26 though). This allows "make nmhdist" to create an archive that
27 is file-for-file identical to the current cvs repository.
29 Sun Dec 31 20:48:50 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
31 * Create docs/README.manpages, which details
32 the formatting rules I've been using.
36 Sat Dec 30 9:50:13 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
38 * Created a new file "DATE" to hold the date
39 of the most recent nmh release. This date will be
42 * Updated docs/README.developers to add the step
43 of updating DATE. Also, updated configure to
44 read in the contents of the file as the variable
47 * Started work on updating man pages, with only
48 ali finished so far. Changes: 1) no dependence
49 on an external macro file, 2) uses only
50 -man macros (although I may be mistaken in this),
51 3) syntax in the SYNOPSIS is a little more
52 in line with standard UNIX documentation, such as
53 bold flags and italicized parameters.
55 Sun Dec 24 10:06:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
57 * Updated INSTALL with information about the
58 --with-locking option.
60 * Fixed the Hesiod tests in configure.in. In
61 systems where res_send was in -lresolv, this
62 information was not being communicated to the
63 HESIOD_LIBS var. Now, if res_send is not found
64 in the default libraries, it's assumed to be
65 in -lresolv, and thus -lresolv is appended to
66 HESIOD_LIBS, which will need that to avoid
67 undefined symbols problems.
69 * Fixed the Kerberos tests in configure.in. New
70 versions of Kerberos 5 have renamed -lcrypto
71 to -lk5crypto (circa krb5 1.1 or thereabouts). The
72 new test tries to determine if -lk5crypto exists. If so,
73 this is a new krb5 system. If not, test for -lcrypto
74 and the rest of old krb5. If that fails, look
75 for a genuine krb4 installation.
77 Fri Dec 22 22:08:51 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
79 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in msgchk.man.
80 -snoop was documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
82 Fri Dec 22 23:42:16 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
84 * Made a new ./configure option called
85 "--with-locking" that allows the file
86 locking mechanism to be chosen there instead of
87 requiring a manual edit of config.h.
89 * If the option is not explicitly set, or an
90 invalid option is specified, "dot" locking is
91 chosen. Valid options are "dot", "fcntl",
92 "flock", and "lockf". We need a way to tell
93 the user that these are the valid options, and
94 change the flag "--with-locking" if it's not
97 Fri Dec 22 19:21:29 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
99 * Remove the lex-specific memory hints at the
100 beginning of sbr/dtimep.lex. We've already
101 committed to supporting flex only, since
102 lex does not easily allow us to parse a single
103 string, as well as other problems documented
104 below and on nmh-workers.
106 * Added a switch statement to configure.in to
107 test for Mac OS X. If this is the case, LDFLAGS
108 should not contain "-s" since the linker rejects
111 * Updated MACHINES to include Mac OS X Public Beta,
112 as well as Linux 2.4 running glibc 2.2.
114 Wed Dec 20 16:00:46 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
116 * Marked deprecated directories in docs/README.developers
117 as deprecated, with pointers to the new code location.
118 Eventually these deprecated directories should go away.
120 Tue Dec 19 19:16:37 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
122 * -apop and -noapop were not documented in inc.man. -snoop was
123 documented but didn't appear in the usage SYNOPSIS.
125 Thu Dec 14 14:32:09 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
127 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to the most recent
128 versions on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config, dated
129 12-07-00. This should prevent configure from failing
130 on newer operating systems because config.{guess,sub}
131 couldn't correctly identify them.
133 Thu Dec 14 1:30:44 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
135 * Fixed the circular dependency created when I moved
136 zotnet/mts to mts/generic and merged them into libmts.
137 mts/generic/client.c and mts/generic/mts.c are now in sbr/
138 (and thus in libmh), which makes libmh self-contained and
139 not depending on an external archive.
141 * All include statements now look for mts.h in h/. The
142 Makefiles and configure script have been modified so that
143 mts/generic is no longer built.
145 Mon Dec 11 22:08:07 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
147 * When Shantonu made the new libmts.a, he swapped $(MTSLIB) and
148 libmh.a in sbr/Makefile.in so that libmh.a comes first, but this
149 causes the build to fail on Solaris, because libmts.a has to get
150 ruserpass() out of libmh.a. Swapping them back to the way Ken
151 Hornstein's patch (which I applied on Jul 20) put them, with
152 libmh.a correctly coming second. If there are times when libmts.a
153 needs to come second, then it would appear there's a circular
154 dependency and someone (Shantonu?) did an mts merge incorrectly.
156 Fri Sep 8 01:36:23 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
158 * Took out bad time textual time zones like BST and JST.
159 I found them online somewhere, but am not sure if they're
162 Fri Sep 8 00:36:48 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
164 * Moved zotnet/mts to mts/generic. This code reorganization
165 makes the entire zotnet tree deprecated -- bboards is unneeded,
166 mf was was moved to sbr, tws was rewritten and moved to sbr, and
169 * Created a new static library called libmts.a used during
170 compilation which includes the generic mts code and the
171 smtp/sendmail code. This supercedes the functionality of the
172 old libsmtp.a and the remains of libzot.a.
174 * Updated header includes to reference the new location of mts.h
175 in mts/generic/mts.h. Also, update the configure and top-level
176 Makefile not to descend into zotnet. Also, they don't descend
177 into mts/mmdf and mts/sendmail (the sendmail code has been
178 merged into the smtp code).
180 * Added #include <h/nmh.h> to h/md5.h, since my compile was
181 complaining about implicitly-declared memcpy and memset, which
182 appear to be in strings.h. In any event, nmh.h should take care
185 * When doing a "make nmhdist", notice that the generated
186 snapshot does not include zotnet of the mts directories as noted
187 above. Since they are no longer compiled, and I don't see any
188 obvious code path to get to them, end-users should probably
189 not need them. If you think otherwise, turn Makefile generation
190 back on in configure.in and turn on recursion into those dirs
191 in the appropriate Makefile.in
193 Wed Sep 6 22:40:03 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
195 * Tracked down the problem in the new dtimep where time
196 zones were being radically misreported. It was because the
197 parser knew about military time zones (such as M or E) but in
198 some cases did not know about the textual representation of
199 some zones (like MET). When it encountered one of these, the
200 date parser misread MET as the military time zone T (well, first
201 zone M, then E, and finally T). I took military zones out, and
202 things seem much better. Also, the default behavior of parsing
203 time zones appears to default to GMT in the absence of better
204 info, which is less bogus than assuming the mail came from the
205 current time zone, which was the behavior in 1.04.
207 Thu Aug 10 13:22:13 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
209 * Decided that limiting the message number columns to 3 on my
210 scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD (to try to regain space taken by
211 extra date info) was ill-conceived. It's not that tough to get
212 past 999 messages, though I imagine it's rather rare to exceed
213 9999. Changed these to 4. Also put the "replied / encrypted"
214 column back in YYYYMMDD -- I've never seen it show anything but a
215 space, but that space is useful if you use scan, grep, and awk
216 (with the default field separator) to grab message numbers (I know
217 -- pick should really be used for these purposes...).
219 Mon Aug 7 20:11:09 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
221 * Modify umask set by mhshow to enable user execute bit, so that
222 viewers that create temporary directories (e.g., lynx) will be
225 Thu Aug 03 17:14:08 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
227 * TODO: Allow multiple simultaneous differing contexts, probably
228 each tied to a parent (terminal) process.
230 Tue Aug 1 10:48:05 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
232 * Makefile install rules should not look for generated files in
233 the source tree -- this will happen to work when configuring and
234 building inside the source tree but will fail when using an
235 external build tree. Fixed etc/Makefile.in.
237 Mon Jul 24 16:20:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
239 * When Shantonu wrote the new, more portable dtimep.lex, he left
240 out the #ifdef DSTXXX stuff for some reason. Not a good idea, as
241 that code is required for proper printing of numeric-offset
242 timezones that have daylight saving time. Without that code,
243 -0700 during DST gets printed as MST instead of PDT.
245 * Renamed DSTXXX as ADJUST_NUMERIC_ONLY_TZ_OFFSETS_WRT_DST and
246 added an explanatory comment by its #definition.
248 * Updated README.developers with the fact that zotnet/tws is going away.
250 Thu Jul 20 20:30:52 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
252 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
253 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output. Also,
254 people did not preserve my alphabetization of the --with options
255 when they added new ones. Re-alphabetized.
257 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
258 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
259 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
260 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
262 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
263 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
264 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
265 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
267 * Last pass at README.developers -- Kimmo's 5-step commit was
268 overkill. You only need 3 steps, since configure.in is the only
269 autoconf file with the RCS $Id keyword.
271 * Applied Kurt J. Lidl <lidl@eng.us.uu.net>'s $MAILHOST patch:
273 I have a small patch that would be nice to be included --
274 basically, it allows the usage of the "MAILHOST" environment
275 variable, without having to have HESIOD turned on. I need
276 this functionality for my environment, where we have identical
277 /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into
278 the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for
281 Modified inc.man to reflect that along with "pophost:" and -host,
282 $MAILHOST can now activate POP mail inclusion as well.
284 * Fixed warnings from diff on first-time install of nmh. Also
285 added 'echo's clarifying the etc file installation activities.
287 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
289 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
291 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
293 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
294 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
295 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
296 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
298 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
300 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
301 be easily changed from "," to "#".
303 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
305 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
307 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
308 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
311 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
313 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
314 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
315 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
316 but not for the subsequent data stream.
318 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
320 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
321 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
322 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
323 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
324 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
326 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
328 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
329 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
331 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
332 cat, also define lorder as echo.
334 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
336 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
338 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
339 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
340 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
342 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
344 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
347 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
348 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
350 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
352 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
353 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
355 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
357 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
358 inc does not need to be setgid.
360 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
362 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
363 library, as found on Debian systems.
365 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
367 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
369 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
370 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
371 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
372 case-insensitivity flag.
374 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
376 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
377 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
379 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
381 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
382 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
383 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
384 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
385 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
386 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
387 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
388 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
389 getting moved aside).
391 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
392 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
394 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
396 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
397 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
398 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
399 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
400 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
401 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
402 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
403 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
404 the prototype, but never sets it.
406 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
407 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
408 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
409 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
410 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
411 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
413 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
414 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
415 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
416 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
417 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
419 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
421 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
422 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
425 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
426 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
427 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
428 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
429 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
430 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
431 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
433 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
435 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
437 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
438 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
439 this works on other systems.
441 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
443 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
444 checks for write failures.
446 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
448 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
450 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
453 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
455 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
457 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
459 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
460 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
463 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
465 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
466 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
467 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
468 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
470 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
472 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
473 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
476 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
477 as well as Makefiles.
479 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
481 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
482 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
483 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
484 should make maintainability easier.
486 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
487 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
488 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
489 whatever you know works.
491 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
493 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
494 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
495 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
497 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
498 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
499 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
500 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
502 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
503 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
504 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
506 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
507 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
508 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
509 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
510 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
512 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
513 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
514 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
515 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
516 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
517 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
518 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
519 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
520 from the BSD version.
522 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
523 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
524 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
526 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
529 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
532 This happens on solaris:
535 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
536 No manual entry for mts.conf.
540 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
542 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
543 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
545 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
547 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
548 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
549 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
550 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
551 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
552 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
553 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
554 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
555 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
556 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
557 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
559 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
560 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
561 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
562 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
563 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
564 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
567 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
568 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
569 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
570 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
571 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
573 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
574 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
576 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
578 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
579 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
580 to stdin, such as exmh.
582 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
583 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
584 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
587 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
589 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
590 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
591 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
592 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
593 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
594 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
595 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
597 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
599 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
600 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
602 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
604 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
605 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
607 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
609 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
612 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
613 along with any -host or -user option.
615 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
617 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
619 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
620 process was fresh in my mind.
622 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
624 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
625 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
627 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
629 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
631 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
634 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
635 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
636 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
637 part of the program's name.
639 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
640 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
643 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
645 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
646 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
647 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
648 single-character format would cause programs using this
649 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
650 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
651 when the format string was one character. This eventually
652 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
655 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
657 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
658 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
659 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
660 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
661 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
662 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
664 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
665 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
666 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
667 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
668 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
669 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
670 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
671 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
673 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
674 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
675 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
676 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
677 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
678 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
679 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
680 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
681 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
682 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
684 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
686 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
687 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
689 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
690 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
692 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
697 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
699 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
700 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
701 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
702 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
704 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
705 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
706 problem in the routine.
708 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
710 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
711 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
713 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
714 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
715 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
718 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
720 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
721 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
722 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
723 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
724 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
725 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
726 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
727 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
728 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
729 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
731 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
733 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
734 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
735 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
736 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
737 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
738 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
739 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
740 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
741 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
742 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
743 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
744 interesting than a duplication of the default.
746 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
747 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
748 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
749 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
750 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
752 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
755 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
757 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
758 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
759 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
760 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
763 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
765 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
767 * Applied, after some finessing,
768 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
770 Here's a patch that allows you to add
772 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
774 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
775 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
776 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
777 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
779 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
781 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
782 forgetting to do so!).
784 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
785 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
786 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
787 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
788 arguments to enable all three types.
790 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
791 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
793 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
794 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
795 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
796 updated copy of mts.conf.
798 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
800 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
801 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
802 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
804 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
806 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
808 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
809 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
810 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
812 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
813 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
814 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
816 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
817 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
818 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
820 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
822 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
824 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
826 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
828 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
829 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
831 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
832 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
833 certain suffix to run properly.
835 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
836 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
837 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
839 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
840 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
841 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
842 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
843 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
844 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
845 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
847 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
849 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
850 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
851 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
852 until some year far in the future).
854 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
856 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
858 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
859 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
861 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
862 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
865 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
867 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
868 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
869 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
870 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
871 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
872 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
874 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
876 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
878 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
879 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
880 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
882 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
883 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
884 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
885 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
886 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
887 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
890 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
891 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
892 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
893 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
894 of masquerading individually.
896 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
897 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
898 GECOS field delimiters.
900 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
902 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
903 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
904 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
905 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
906 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
907 and explaining the feature.
909 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
911 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
912 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
915 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
916 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
917 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
919 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
920 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
921 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
922 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
924 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
925 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
926 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
929 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
931 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
934 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
936 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
938 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
939 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
940 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
941 quotes embedded in them.
943 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
945 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
946 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
947 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
948 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
949 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
950 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
951 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
954 The other theory is that because you can say something like
955 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
956 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
957 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
958 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
960 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
962 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
964 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
965 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
966 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
967 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
969 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
972 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
974 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
976 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
978 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
979 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
980 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
982 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
985 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
987 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
988 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
989 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
990 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
991 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
992 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
994 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
995 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
997 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
999 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
1002 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1004 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
1005 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
1006 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
1009 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
1010 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
1011 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
1012 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
1013 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
1014 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
1015 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
1016 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
1017 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
1018 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
1019 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
1020 processing that post has).
1022 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1024 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
1025 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
1026 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
1027 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
1028 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
1029 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
1032 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1034 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
1036 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
1038 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
1040 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
1041 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
1043 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
1046 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1048 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
1049 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
1050 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
1053 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1055 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
1056 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
1057 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
1058 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
1059 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
1060 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
1062 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1064 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
1066 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1068 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
1069 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
1070 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
1071 caught again. This works for now.
1073 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
1075 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1077 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
1078 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
1080 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1082 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
1083 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
1085 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
1087 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
1089 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1091 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
1092 changes. Both need more cleanup.
1094 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1096 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
1097 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
1098 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
1099 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
1100 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
1103 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1105 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
1106 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
1107 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
1109 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
1110 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
1113 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1115 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
1116 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
1117 to a directory on another device with more free space.
1119 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1121 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
1122 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
1124 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
1126 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
1129 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
1130 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
1132 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
1133 macros, regardless of platform.
1135 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
1136 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1138 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
1139 with x-conversions=gzip.
1141 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1143 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
1146 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
1147 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
1148 implicit definition of ioctl().
1150 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
1151 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
1152 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
1153 want to mess with them.
1155 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1157 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
1158 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
1160 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
1161 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1163 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
1164 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
1165 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
1167 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
1168 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
1169 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
1171 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
1172 function initgroups.
1174 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
1177 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
1178 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
1181 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
1182 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
1185 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
1186 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
1190 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1192 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
1193 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
1194 preventing compilation on at least linux.
1196 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
1197 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
1199 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1201 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
1203 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
1204 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
1205 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
1206 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
1208 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
1209 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
1211 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1213 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
1215 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1217 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
1218 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
1220 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
1222 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
1223 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
1225 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
1226 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
1227 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
1228 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
1230 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
1231 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
1233 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1235 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
1236 substitute it for mktemp if available.
1238 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
1240 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
1241 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
1244 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1246 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
1248 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
1250 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
1251 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1253 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
1254 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
1255 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
1257 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
1258 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
1259 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
1261 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
1262 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
1263 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1265 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
1266 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
1269 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
1270 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1272 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1273 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1275 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1276 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1278 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1279 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1280 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1282 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1283 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1285 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1286 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1287 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1289 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1290 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1293 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1294 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1296 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1297 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1298 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1299 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1301 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1302 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1304 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1308 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1309 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1310 would not be changed.
1312 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1313 one from the Apache web server.
1315 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1316 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1318 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1319 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1320 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1322 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1324 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1326 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1327 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1330 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1331 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1332 removes a bad race condition.
1334 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1337 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1338 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1339 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1341 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1342 sequence information.
1344 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1345 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1347 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1350 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1353 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1355 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1356 interpret 034 as octal.
1358 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1360 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1361 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1363 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1364 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1366 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1367 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1369 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1370 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1372 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1373 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1375 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1376 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1377 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1379 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1380 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1381 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1383 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1385 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1387 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1388 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1391 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1393 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1394 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1396 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1397 header field information.
1399 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1400 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1402 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1403 values when parsing a content.
1405 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1406 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1408 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1409 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1411 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1412 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1414 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1415 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1417 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1419 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1421 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1423 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1425 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1426 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1429 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1430 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1432 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1433 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1434 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1435 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1436 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1437 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1440 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1442 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1443 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1444 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1446 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1447 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1449 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1451 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1452 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1453 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1454 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1456 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1457 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1460 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1461 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1462 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1463 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1466 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1468 * Released nmh-0.27.
1470 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1471 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1473 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1474 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1475 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1476 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1479 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1480 mhbuild returns an error.
1482 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1483 rename the draft file.
1485 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1486 use a global variable.
1488 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1489 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1491 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1492 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1494 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1495 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1496 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1498 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1499 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1501 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1502 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1505 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1506 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1509 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1510 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1512 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1513 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1514 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1516 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1517 to new function output_content_folder.
1519 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1520 new function output_content_file.
1522 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1523 to new function parse_format_string.
1525 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1526 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1527 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1528 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1530 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1531 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1532 message/external file from ftp.
1534 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1535 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1536 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1538 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1539 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1542 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1545 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1546 new file mhstoresbr.c
1548 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1551 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1552 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1554 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1555 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1557 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1558 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1559 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1561 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1563 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1565 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1566 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1569 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1570 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1572 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1575 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1577 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1579 * Released nmh-0.26.
1581 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1582 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1583 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1584 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1586 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1587 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1588 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1589 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1590 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1592 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1593 But it is not on by default.
1595 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1596 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1598 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1600 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1602 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1604 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1606 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1607 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1609 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1611 * Released nmh-0.25.
1613 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1614 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1615 uses the original name of the library.
1617 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1618 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1621 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1622 list_content and list_debug.
1624 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1626 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1627 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1629 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1631 * Released nmh-0.24.
1633 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1635 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1636 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1638 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1639 large sequence line.
1641 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1643 * Released nmh-0.23.
1645 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1647 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1648 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1649 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1650 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1652 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1653 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1656 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1658 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1660 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1662 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1663 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1665 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1666 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.

1689 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1691 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1693 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1694 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1696 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1698 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1699 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1700 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1702 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1703 source message on the standard input.
1705 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1707 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1708 rather than -rfc934mode.
1710 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1711 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1714 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1715 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).

1720 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1722 * Released nmh-0.21.
1724 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1725 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.

1739 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1741 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1742 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1744 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1745 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1746 spaces between encoded word are.
1748 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1750 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1751 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1753 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1754 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1755 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1757 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1759 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1760 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1762 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.

1769 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1772 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1773 permissions, not write permissions.
1775 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1776 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1778 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1781 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1783 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1785 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1786 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1788 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1789 message contains valid character set.
1791 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1792 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1794 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1795 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1797 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1798 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1799 between an encoded word and normal text.
1801 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1802 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1804 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1805 as a RFC-2047 header field.

1810 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1811 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1814 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1815 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1817 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1818 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1820 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1822 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1824 * Released nmh-0.20.
1826 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1828 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.

1831 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1832 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1834 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1835 and the To: line was missing.
1837 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1839 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1841 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1843 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1844 watch the POP transaction.
1846 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1847 first, and use it if available.
1849 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1850 first, and use it if available.
1852 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1854 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1856 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1857 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1858 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1861 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1862 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1863 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1865 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1866 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1869 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1871 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1872 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1874 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1876 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1877 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1879 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1880 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1881 message to which you are replying.
1883 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1884 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1885 making group replies.
1887 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1889 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1891 * Released nmh-0.19.
1893 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1894 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1896 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1897 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1898 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1899 to the end of the man page.
1901 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1902 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1903 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1904 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1905 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1906 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1908 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1911 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1912 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1913 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1915 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1916 the next available number above the message number you wish
1919 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1920 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1922 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1923 file sbr/seq_print.c
1925 * flist will now update the current folder.
1927 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1928 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1929 but now undocumented.
1931 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1934 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1935 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1937 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1939 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1940 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1942 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1944 * Released nmh-0.18.
1946 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1947 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1948 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1950 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1951 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1953 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1954 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1955 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1956 previous public/private status.
1958 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1961 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1964 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1965 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1966 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1968 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1969 take option to determine whether it should get current
1970 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1971 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1973 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1975 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1976 wait for stopped processes.
1978 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1979 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1981 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1983 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1985 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1986 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1988 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1989 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1991 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1992 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1993 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1994 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1996 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1999 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
2002 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
2004 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
2005 the debugging output.
2007 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
2008 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
2010 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2012 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
2014 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
2015 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
2017 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
2019 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
2020 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
2021 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
2022 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
2023 in the given sequence.
2025 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
2026 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
2027 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
2028 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
2029 subdirectories of a given directory.
2031 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
2032 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
2033 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
2035 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
2036 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
2038 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
2040 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
2043 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
2044 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
2045 fields are now calculated at runtime.
2047 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
2048 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
2049 are calculated at runtime.
2051 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2053 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
2055 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
2056 about checking for global mh.profile.
2058 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
2059 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
2060 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
2061 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
2062 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
2063 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
2065 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
2066 adding message to folder itself.
2068 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
2069 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
2070 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
2073 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
2074 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
2077 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
2078 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
2079 is the same as the direct smtp code).
2081 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
2082 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
2084 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
2085 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
2086 code to use it yet).
2088 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2090 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2092 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2093 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2095 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2096 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2098 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2100 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2103 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2105 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
2107 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
2109 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2111 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
2112 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
2114 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
2116 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2118 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
2120 * Removed all the code for BERK.
2122 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
2124 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
2125 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
2127 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
2128 configuration files.
2130 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2132 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2134 * Released nmh-0.17.
2136 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2138 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2139 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2141 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2144 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2145 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2147 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2148 number of refiled message.
2150 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
2152 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
2153 for return value of wait().
2155 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
2157 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2159 * Released nmh-0.16.

2163 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2165 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2166 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2167 deal with binary messages, yet).
2169 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2171 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2173 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2174 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2175 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2176 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2177 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2178 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2180 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2181 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2183 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2184 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2186 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2187 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
2190 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2192 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2194 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
2195 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2198 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2201 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2203 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2204 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2205 which used unsigned chars by default.
2207 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2209 * Released nmh-0.15.
2211 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

2216 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2218 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2221 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2222 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2223 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2225 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2226 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2228 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2230 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2231 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2233 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2234 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2235 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2236 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2238 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2239 and put in own subroutine.
2241 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2242 and put in own subroutine.
2244 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2245 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2246 refile.c to use new routine.
2248 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2250 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
2252 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2255 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2256 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2257 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2259 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2262 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2263 adding message to sequence.
2265 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2266 corresponding file in sbr.
2268 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2271 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2273 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2274 all selected messages from a sequence.
2276 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2277 selected messages to a sequence.
2279 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2282 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2284 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2285 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2287 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2299 * Released nmh-0.14.
2301 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
2302 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2304 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2306 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'

2328 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2329 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2330 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2331 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2334 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2335 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2337 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2339 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2340 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2342 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2344 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct

2373 will suppress the display of the message header.
2375 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2377 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c

2382 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2384 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h

2389 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2390 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2392 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2394 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2396 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2397 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2399 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2400 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2402 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2404 * Released nmh-0.10.

2424 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2425 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2427 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2429 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2430 of missing tabs in regex.

2459 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2460 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2462 * Released nmh-0.08.
2464 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2465 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2466 locking database itself.
2468 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2470 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2472 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2473 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2476 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2477 rather than mmdf format.
2479 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2480 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2481 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2482 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2484 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2486 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2488 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2491 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2492 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2493 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2495 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2496 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2497 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2499 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2501 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2502 can still easily change this in config.h).
2504 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2505 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2506 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2508 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2510 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2511 than tzset and external timezone variable.

2522 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2524 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2525 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2527 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2528 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2531 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2532 built-in FTP client in mhn.

2545 * Released nmh-0.06.
2547 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2548 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2550 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2551 many such machines around anymore.
2553 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2554 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2556 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2557 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2559 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2561 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2562 pre-generated version if necessary.
2564 * Released nmh-0.05.
2566 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2567 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2568 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2569 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2571 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2572 be linked in one pass.
2574 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2576 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2577 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2579 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2581 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2583 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2585 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2586 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2587 become the current folder.
2589 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2591 * Released nmh-0.04.
2593 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2596 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2598 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2599 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2600 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2602 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2604 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2605 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2607 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2609 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2610 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2613 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2614 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2616 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2618 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2619 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2620 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2621 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2622 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2623 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2625 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2627 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2628 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2630 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2631 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2633 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2635 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2636 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2638 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2640 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2641 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2642 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2644 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2646 * Released nmh-0.03.
2648 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2649 .mh_sequence file existed.
2651 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2652 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2654 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2655 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2658 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2660 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2663 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2665 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2666 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2667 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2669 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2671 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2672 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2673 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2675 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2677 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2678 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2680 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2682 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2684 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2685 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2686 directory from where the source code is located.
2688 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2690 * Released nmh-0.02.
2692 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2697 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2699 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2700 and sys_nerr directly.

2704 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2706 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2708 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2710 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2711 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2712 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2713 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2714 rather than in script.
2716 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2718 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2720 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2721 macro defined on Solaris.
2723 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2725 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2726 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2728 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2729 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2730 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2731 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2734 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2736 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2737 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2739 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2742 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2744 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2746 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2747 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2749 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2751 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2752 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2754 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2756 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2757 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2758 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2759 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2760 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2761 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2763 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2765 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2767 * Released nmh-0.01.
2769 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2770 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2771 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2774 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2776 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2779 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2781 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2782 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2784 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2786 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2787 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2788 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2789 script to find_program.
2791 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2793 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2794 speed up -recurse option.
2796 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2797 yet, but it compiles :-)
2799 * Changed default location for install to
2800 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2801 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2802 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2805 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2806 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2807 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
