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

2467
2468 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
2469
2470 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
2471 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
2472
2473 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
2474 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
2475
2476 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
2477
2478 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
2479 to folder_addmsg.c
2480
2481 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2486
2487 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
2488

2493
2494 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
2495
2496 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.

2506 configuration files.
2507
2508 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
2509
2510 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2512 * Released nmh-0.17.
2513
2514 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
2515
2516 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
2517 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
2518
2519 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
2520 defined.
2521
2522 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
2523 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
2524
2525 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
2526 number of refiled message.
2527
2528 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.

2539 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2540
2541 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
2542
2543 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
2544 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
2545 deal with binary messages, yet).
2546
2547 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
2548
2549 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
2550
2551 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
2552 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
2553 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
2554 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
2555 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
2556 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
2557
2558 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
2559 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
2560
2561 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
2562 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
2563
2564 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
2565 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and

2567
2568 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
2569
2570 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
2571

2573 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
2574 composition files.
2575
2576 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
2577 files.
2578
2579 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
2580
2581 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
2582 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
2583 which used unsigned chars by default.
2584
2585 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2586
2587 * Released nmh-0.15.
2588
2589 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
2590 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
2591
2592 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
2593
2594 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
2595
2596 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
2597 return 0.
2598
2599 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
2600 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
2601 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
2602
2603 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
2604 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
2605
2606 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
2607
2608 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
2609 they conflict with defines on AIX.
2610
2611 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
2612 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
2613 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
2614 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
2615
2616 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
2617 and put in own subroutine.
2618
2619 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
2620 and put in own subroutine.
2621
2622 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
2623 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
2624 refile.c to use new routine.
2625

2630 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
2631 seq_getnum.
2632
2633 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
2634 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
2635 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
2636
2637 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
2638 no longer used.
2639
2640 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
2641 adding message to sequence.
2642
2643 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
2644 corresponding file in sbr.
2645
2646 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2647 file in sbr.
2648
2649 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2650
2651 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2652 all selected messages from a sequence.
2653
2654 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2655 selected messages to a sequence.
2656
2657 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2658 and m_seqok.c.

2665 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2666
2667 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2673 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
2674
2675 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2676
2677 * Released nmh-0.14.

2680 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
2681
2682 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2683
2684 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
2685 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
2686 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2687 environment variable.
2688
2689 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2690 draft folder facility in nmh.
2691
2692 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
2693 to fmt_compile.h.
2694
2695 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
2696 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
2697 fmt_addr.c.
2698
2699 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
2700 options.
2701
2702 Fri Apr 25 02:50:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2703
2704 * Released nmh-0.13.
2705
2706 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2707 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2708 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2709 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2710 to MAXARGS).
2711
2712 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2713 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2714
2715 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2716
2717 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2718 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2719
2720 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2721
2722 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2723 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
2724
2725 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2726
2727 * Released nmh-0.12.
2728
2729 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
2730
2731 * Released nmh-0.11.
2732
2733 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2734
2735 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
2736 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
2737
2738 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
2739 mp->attrstats with macros.
2740
2741 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2742 in msh.c instead.
2743
2744 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2745 to hide dd->dd_fd.
2746
2747 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2748 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2749
2750 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2751 will suppress the display of the message header.
2752
2753 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2754
2755 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2756 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2757
2758 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2759
2760 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2761
2762 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2763
2764 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2765 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2766
2767 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2768 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2769
2770 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2771
2772 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2773
2774 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2775 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2776
2777 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2778 defined even if message is missing "From " line.

2787 by default.
2788
2789 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2790
2791 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2792 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2793
2794 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2795 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2796
2797 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2798 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2799
2800 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2801

2814 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2815
2816 * Add configure check for killpg.
2817
2818 * msh.c: include <termios.h> instead of <termio.h> and
2819 <sys/ioctl.h>.
2820
2821 * prompter.c: don't include <sys/ioctl.h> anymore.
2822
2823 Thu Mar 6 04:03:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2824
2825 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2826 From MH-6.8.4 diff.
2827
2828 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2829
2830 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2831
2832 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2833 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2834
2835 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2836
2837 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2838 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2839
2840 * Released nmh-0.08.
2841
2842 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2843 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2844 locking database itself.
2845
2846 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2847
2848 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2849
2850 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2851 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2852 option.
2853
2854 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2855 rather than mmdf format.
2856
2857 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2858 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2859 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2860 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2861
2862 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2863
2864 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2865
2866 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2867 added to packf.
2868
2869 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2870 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2871 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2872
2873 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2874 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2875 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2876
2877 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2878
2879 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2880 can still easily change this in config.h).
2881
2882 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2883 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2884 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2885
2886 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2887
2888 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2889 than tzset and external timezone variable.

2892
2893 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

2896 the suffix.
2897
2898 * Released nmh-0.07.
2899
2900 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2901
2902 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2903 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2904
2905 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2906 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2907 on SCO 5.x.
2908
2909 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2910 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2911
2912 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2913 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2914
2915 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2916
2917 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2918
2919 * Added configure check for tzset.
2920
2921 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2922
2923 * Released nmh-0.06.
2924
2925 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2926 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2927
2928 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2929 many such machines around anymore.
2930
2931 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2932 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2933
2934 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2935 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2936
2937 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2938
2939 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2940 pre-generated version if necessary.
2941
2942 * Released nmh-0.05.
2943
2944 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2945 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2946 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2947 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2948
2949 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2950 be linked in one pass.
2951
2952 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2953
2954 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2955 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2956
2957 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2958
2959 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2960
2961 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2962
2963 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2964 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2965 become the current folder.
2966
2967 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2968
2969 * Released nmh-0.04.
2970
2971 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2972 it.
2973
2974 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2975
2976 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2977 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2978 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2979
2980 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2981
2982 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2983 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2984
2985 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2986
2987 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2988 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2989 using POP.
2990
2991 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2992 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2993
2994 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2995
2996 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2997 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2998 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2999 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
3000 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
3001 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
3002
3003 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3004
3005 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
3006 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
3007
3008 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
3009 a file (currently need to specify full path).
3010
3011 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3012
3013 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
3014 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
3015
3016 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3017
3018 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
3019 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
3020 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
3021
3022 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3023
3024 * Released nmh-0.03.
3025
3026 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
3027 .mh_sequence file existed.
3028
3029 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
3030 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
3031
3032 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
3033 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
3034 man page.
3035
3036 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3037
3038 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
3039 flist man page.
3040
3041 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3042
3043 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
3044 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
3045 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
3046
3047 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3048
3049 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
3050 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
3051 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
3052
3053 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3054
3055 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
3056 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
3057
3058 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
3059
3060 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3061
3062 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
3063 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
3064 directory from where the source code is located.
3065
3066 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3067
3068 * Released nmh-0.02.
3069
3070 Wed Jan 1 17:41:52 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3071
3072 * Split mhook man page into man pages for rcvdist, rcvpack,
3073 and rcvtty.
3074
3075 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3076
3077 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
3078 and sys_nerr directly.
3079
3080 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3081
3082 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
3083
3084 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
3085
3086 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3087
3088 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
3089 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
3090 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
3091 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
3092 rather than in script.
3093
3094 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3095
3096 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
3097
3098 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
3099 macro defined on Solaris.
3100
3101 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3102
3103 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
3104 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
3105
3106 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
3107 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
3108 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
3109 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
3110 options if enabled.
3111
3112 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3113
3114 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
3115 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
3116
3117 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
3118 correctly found.
3119
3120 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3121
3122 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
3123
3124 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
3125 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
3126
3127 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3128
3129 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
3130 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
3131
3132 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3133
3134 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
3135 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
3136 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
3137 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
3138 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
3139 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
3140
3141 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3142
3143 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
3144
3145 * Released nmh-0.01.
3146
3147 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
3148 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
3149 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
3150 have POSIX signals.
3151
3152 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3153
3154 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
3155 their man pages.
3156
3157 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3158
3159 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
3160 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
3161
3162 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3163
3164 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
3165 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
3166 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
3167 script to find_program.
3168
3169 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
3170
3171 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
3172 speed up -recurse option.
3173
3174 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
3175 yet, but it compiles :-)
3176
3177 * Changed default location for install to
3178 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
3179 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
3180 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
3181 level Makefile.
3182
3183 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
3184 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
3185 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
