[nmh] / ChangeLog
1 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
2
3 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
4 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
5 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
6 this works on other systems.
7
8 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
9
10 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
11 checks for write failures.
12 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
13 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
14 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
15 is patched in.
16 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
17 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
18
19 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
20
21 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
22 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
23 a buffer boundary.
24
25 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
26
27 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
28 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
29 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
30 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
31
32 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
33
34 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
35 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
36 place.
37
38 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
39 as well as Makefiles.
40
41 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
42
43 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
44 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
45 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
46 should make maintainability easier.
47
48 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
49 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
50 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
51 whatever you know works.
52
53 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
54
55 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
56 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
57 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
58
59 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
60 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
61 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
62 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
63
64 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
65 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
66 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
67
68 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
69 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
70 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
71 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
72 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
73
74 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
75 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
76 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
77 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
78 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
79 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
80 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
81 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
82 from the BSD version.
83
84 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
85 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
86 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
87
88 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
89 in ruserpass.c also.
90
91 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
92 report:
93
94 This happens on solaris:
95
96 % man mts.conf
97 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
98 No manual entry for mts.conf.
99
100 It is fixed by
101
102 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
103
104 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
105 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
106
107 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
108
109 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
110 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
111 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
112 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
113 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
114 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
115 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
116 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
117 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
118 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
119 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
120
121 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
122 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
123 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
124 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
125 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
126 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
127 out of nowhere.
128
129 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
130 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
131 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
132 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
133 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
134
135 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
136 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
137
138 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
139
140 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
141 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
142 to stdin, such as exmh.
143
144 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
145 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
146 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
147 other files.
148
149 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
150
151 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
152 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
153 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
154 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
155 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
156 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
157 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
158
159 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
160
161 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
162 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
163
164 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
165
166 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
167 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
168
169 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
170
171 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
172 --enable-apop.
173
174 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
175 along with any -host or -user option.
176
177 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
178
179 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
180
181 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
182 process was fresh in my mind.
183
184 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
185
186 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
187 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
188
189 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
190
191 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
192
193 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
194 patch:
195
196 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
197 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
198 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
199 part of the program's name.
200
201 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
202 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
203 to quote.
204
205 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
206
207 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
208 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
209 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
210 single-character format would cause programs using this
211 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
212 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
213 when the format string was one character. This eventually
214 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
215 in the array.
216
217 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
218
219 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
220 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
221 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
222 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
223 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
224 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
225
226 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
227 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
228 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
229 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
230 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
231 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
232 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
233 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
234
235 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
236 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
237 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
238 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
239 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
240 tags, and "&lt;" and "&gt;" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
241 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
242 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
243 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
244 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
245
246 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
247
248 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
249 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
250
251 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
252 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
253
254 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
255 exit 2
256
257 and:
258
259 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
260
261 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
262 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
263 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
264 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
265
266 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
267 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
268 problem in the routine.
269
270 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
271
272 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
273 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
274
275 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
276 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
277 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
278 spool somehow.
279
280 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
281
282 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
283 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
284 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
285 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
286 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
287 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
288 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
289 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
290 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
291 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
292
293 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
294
295 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
296 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
297 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
298 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
299 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
300 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
301 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
302 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
303 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
304 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
305 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
306 interesting than a duplication of the default.
307
308 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
309 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
310 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
311 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
312 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
313
314 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
315 POP is enabled.
316
317 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
318
319 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
320 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
321 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
322 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
323 here.
324
325 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
326
327 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
328
329 * Applied, after some finessing,
330 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
331
332 Here's a patch that allows you to add
333
334 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
335
336 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
337 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
338 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
339 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
340
341 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
342
343 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
344 forgetting to do so!).
345
346 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
347 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
348 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
349 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
350 arguments to enable all three types.
351
352 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
353 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
354
355 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
356 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
357 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
358 updated copy of mts.conf.
359
360 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
361
362 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
363 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
364 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
365
366 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
367 and
368 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
369
370 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
371 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
372 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
373
374 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
375 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
376 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
377
378 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
379 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
380 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
381
382 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
383
384 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
385
386 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
387
388 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
389
390 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
391 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
392
393 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
394 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
395 certain suffix to run properly.
396
397 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
398 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
399 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
400
401 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
402 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
403 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
404 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
405 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
406 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
407 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
408
409 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
410
411 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
412 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
413 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
414 until some year far in the future).
415
416 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
417
418 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
419
420 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
421 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
422
423 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
424 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
425 corrupted.
426
427 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
428
429 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
430 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
431 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
432 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
433 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
434 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
435
436 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
437
438 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
439
440 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
441 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
442 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
443
444 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
445 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
446 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
447 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
448 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
449 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
450 leads me to:
451
452 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
453 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
454 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
455 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
456 of masquerading individually.
457
458 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
459 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
460 GECOS field delimiters.
461
462 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
463
464 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
465 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
466 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
467 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
468 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
469 and explaining the feature.
470
471 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
472
473 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
474 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
475 so).
476
477 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
478 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
479 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
480
481 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
482 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
483 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
484 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
485
486 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
487 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
488 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
489 anywhere.
490
491 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
492
493 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
494 code to be executed.
495
496 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
497
498 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
499
500 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
501 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
502 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
503 quotes embedded in them.
504
505 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
506
507 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
508 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
509 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
510 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
511 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
512 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
513 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
514 allowed to specify.
515
516 The other theory is that because you can say something like
517 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
518 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
519 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
520 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
521
522 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
523
524 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
525
526 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
527 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
528 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
529 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
530
531 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
532 KPOP server.
533
534 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
535
536 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
537
538 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
539
540 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
541 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
542 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
543
544 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
545 mhn.defaults.sh.
546
547 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
548
549 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
550 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
551 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
552 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
553 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
554 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
555
556 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
557 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
558
559 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
560
561 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
562 page.
563
564 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
565
566 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
567 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
568 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
569 to be setgid.
570
571 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
572 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
573 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
574 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
575 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
576 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
577 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
578 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
579 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
580 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
581 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
582 processing that post has).
583
584 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
585
586 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
587 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
588 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
589 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
590 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
591 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
592 Solaris 2.6).
593
594 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
595
596 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
597
598 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
599
600 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
601
602 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
603 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
604
605 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
606 command-line.
607
608 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
609
610 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
611 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
612 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
613 some development.
614
615 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
616
617 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
618 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
619 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
620 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
621 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
622 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
623
624 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
625
626 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
627
628 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
629
630 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
631 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
632 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
633 caught again. This works for now.
634
635 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
636
637 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
638
639 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
640 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
641
642 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
643
644 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
645 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
646
647 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
648
649 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
650
651 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
652
653 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
654 changes. Both need more cleanup.
655
656 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
657
658 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
659 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
660 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
661 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
662 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
663 multiple purposes.
664
665 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
666
667 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
668 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
669 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
670
671 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
672 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
673 config.guess.
674
675 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
676
677 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
678 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
679 to a directory on another device with more free space.
680
681 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
682
683 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
684 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
685
686 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
687
688 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
689 distributed.
690
691 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
692 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
693
694 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
695 macros, regardless of platform.
696
697 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
698 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
699
700 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
701 with x-conversions=gzip.
702
703 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
704
705 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
706 post.c.
707
708 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
709 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
710 implicit definition of ioctl().
711
712 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
713 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
714 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
715 want to mess with them.
716
717 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
718
719 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
720 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
721
722 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
723 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
724
725 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
726 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
727 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
728
729 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
730 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
731 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
732
733 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
734 function initgroups.
735
736 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
737 function.
738
739 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
740 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
741 to fix warnings.
742
743 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
744 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
745 prevent warnings.
746
747 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
748 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
749 statements).
750
751
752 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
753
754 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
755 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
756 preventing compilation on at least linux.
757
758 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
759 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
760
761 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
762
763 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
764
765 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
766 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
767 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
768 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
769
770 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
771 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
772
773 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
774
775 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
776
777 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
778
779 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
780 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
781
782 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
783
784 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
785 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
786
787 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
788 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
789 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
790 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
791
792 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
793 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
794
795 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
796
797 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
798 substitute it for mktemp if available.
799
800 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
801
802 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
803 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
804 proper #defines.
805
806 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
807
808 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
809
810 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
811
812 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
813 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
814
815 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
816 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
817 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
818
819 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
820 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
821 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
822
823 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
824 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
825 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
826
827 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
828 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
829 <swb@nconnect.net>.
830
831 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
832 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
833
834 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
835 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
836
837 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
838 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
839
840 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
841 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
842 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
843
844 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
845 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
846
847 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
848 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
849 <elleron@servtech.com>.
850
851 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
852 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
853 <rmg@netapp.com>.
854
855 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
856 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
857
858 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
859 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
860 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
861 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
862
863 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
864 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
865
866 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
867
868 * Released nmh-1.0.
869
870 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
871 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
872 would not be changed.
873
874 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
875 one from the Apache web server.
876
877 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
878 (this should have been done a long time ago).
879
880 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
881 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
882 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
883
884 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
885
886 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
887
888 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
889 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
890 verbose printing).
891
892 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
893 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
894 removes a bad race condition.
895
896 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
897 style drop file.
898
899 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
900 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
901 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
902
903 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
904 sequence information.
905
906 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
907 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
908
909 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
910 count.
911
912 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
913 is empty.
914
915 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
916
917 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
918 interpret 034 as octal.
919
920 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
921
922 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
923 mhstore, and mhbuild.
924
925 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
926 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
927
928 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
929 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
930
931 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
932 in the c_cefile structure when building.
933
934 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
935 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
936
937 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
938 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
939 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
940
941 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
942 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
943 and mhshow. Updated man pages
944
945 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
946
947 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
948
949 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
950 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
951 file "mhoutsbr.c".
952
953 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
954
955 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
956 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
957
958 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
959 header field information.
960
961 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
962 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
963
964 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
965 values when parsing a content.
966
967 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
968 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
969
970 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
971 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
972
973 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
974 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
975
976 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
977 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
978
979 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
980
981 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
982
983 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
984
985 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
986
987 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
988 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
989 read.
990
991 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
992 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
993
994 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
995 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
996 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
997 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
998 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
999 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1000 be setuid/setgid.
1001
1002 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1003
1004 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1005 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1006 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1007
1008 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1009 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1010
1011 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1012
1013 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1014 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1015 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1016 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1017
1018 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1019 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1020 fix).
1021
1022 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1023 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1024 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1025 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1026 arguments.
1027
1028 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1029
1030 * Released nmh-0.27.
1031
1032 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1033 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1034
1035 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1036 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1037 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1038 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1039 with no arguments.
1040
1041 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1042 mhbuild returns an error.
1043
1044 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1045 rename the draft file.
1046
1047 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1048 use a global variable.
1049
1050 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1051 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1052
1053 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1054 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1055
1056 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1057 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1058 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1059
1060 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1061 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1062
1063 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1064 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1065 this new page.
1066
1067 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1068 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1069 viamail program.
1070
1071 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1072 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1073
1074 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1075 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1076 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1077
1078 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1079 to new function output_content_folder.
1080
1081 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1082 new function output_content_file.
1083
1084 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1085 to new function parse_format_string.
1086
1087 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1088 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1089 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1090 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1091
1092 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1093 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1094 message/external file from ftp.
1095
1096 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1097 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1098 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1099
1100 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1101 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1102 mhfree.c.
1103
1104 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1105 file mhshowsbr.c.
1106
1107 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1108 new file mhstoresbr.c
1109
1110 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1111 file mhparse.c.
1112
1113 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1114 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1115
1116 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1117 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1118
1119 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1120 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1121 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1122
1123 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1124
1125 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1126
1127 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1128 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1129 to main().
1130
1131 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1132 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1133
1134 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1135 to mhparse.c).
1136
1137 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1138
1139 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1140
1141 * Released nmh-0.26.
1142
1143 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1144 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1145 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1146 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1147
1148 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1149 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1150 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1151 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1152 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1153
1154 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1155 But it is not on by default.
1156
1157 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1158 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1159
1160 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1161
1162 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1163
1164 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1165
1166 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1167
1168 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1169 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1170
1171 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1172
1173 * Released nmh-0.25.
1174
1175 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1176 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1177 uses the original name of the library.
1178
1179 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1180 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1181 links remaining.
1182
1183 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1184 list_content and list_debug.
1185
1186 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1187
1188 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1189 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1190
1191 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1192
1193 * Released nmh-0.24.
1194
1195 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1196
1197 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1198 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1199
1200 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1201 large sequence line.
1202
1203 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1204
1205 * Released nmh-0.23.
1206
1207 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1208
1209 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1210 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1211 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1212 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1213
1214 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1215 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1216 file h/mhnsbr.h.
1217
1218 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1219
1220 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1221
1222 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1223
1224 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1225 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1226
1227 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1228 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1229
1230 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1231 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1232
1233 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1234 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1235
1236 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1237
1238 * Released nmh-0.22.
1239
1240 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1241 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1242
1243 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1244
1245 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1246 mh-profile(5) man page.
1247
1248 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1249 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1250
1251 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1252
1253 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1254
1255 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1256 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1257
1258 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1259
1260 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1261 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1262 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1263
1264 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1265 source message on the standard input.
1266
1267 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1268
1269 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1270 rather than -rfc934mode.
1271
1272 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1273 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1274 only one message.
1275
1276 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1277 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1278
1279 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1280 it is still needed.
1281
1282 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1283
1284 * Released nmh-0.21.
1285
1286 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1287 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1288
1289 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1290 encoding to use.
1291
1292 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1293 to use for text contents.
1294
1295 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1296
1297 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1298
1299 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1300
1301 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1302
1303 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1304 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1305
1306 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1307 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1308 spaces between encoded word are.
1309
1310 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1311
1312 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1313 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1314
1315 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1316 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1317 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1318
1319 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1320
1321 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1322 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1323
1324 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1325
1326 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1327
1328 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1329 ISO-8859-X character set.
1330
1331 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1332 pager more.
1333
1334 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1335 permissions, not write permissions.
1336
1337 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1338 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1339
1340 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1341 distribution.
1342
1343 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1344
1345 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1346
1347 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1348 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1349
1350 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1351 message contains valid character set.
1352
1353 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1354 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1355
1356 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1357 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1358
1359 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1360 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1361 between an encoded word and normal text.
1362
1363 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1364 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1365
1366 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1367 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1368
1369 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1370 and -help.
1371
1372 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1373 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1374 loops).
1375
1376 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1377 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1378
1379 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1380 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1381
1382 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1383
1384 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1385
1386 * Released nmh-0.20.
1387
1388 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1389
1390 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1391
1392 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1393 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1394 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1395
1396 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1397 and the To: line was missing.
1398
1399 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1400
1401 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1402
1403 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1404
1405 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1406 watch the POP transaction.
1407
1408 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1409 first, and use it if available.
1410
1411 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1412 first, and use it if available.
1413
1414 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1415
1416 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1417
1418 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1419 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1420 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1421 sequence line.
1422
1423 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1424 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1425 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1426
1427 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1428 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1429 lines.
1430
1431 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1432
1433 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1434 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1435
1436 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1437
1438 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1439 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1440
1441 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1442 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1443 message to which you are replying.
1444
1445 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1446 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1447 making group replies.
1448
1449 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1450
1451 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1452
1453 * Released nmh-0.19.
1454
1455 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1456 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1457
1458 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1459 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1460 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1461 to the end of the man page.
1462
1463 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1464 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1465 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1466 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1467 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1468 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1469
1470 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1471 pages.
1472
1473 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1474 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1475 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1476
1477 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1478 the next available number above the message number you wish
1479 to preserve.
1480
1481 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1482 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1483
1484 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1485 file sbr/seq_print.c
1486
1487 * flist will now update the current folder.
1488
1489 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1490 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1491 but now undocumented.
1492
1493 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1494 traversing folders.
1495
1496 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1497 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1498
1499 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1500
1501 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1502 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1503
1504 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1505
1506 * Released nmh-0.18.
1507
1508 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1509 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1510 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1511
1512 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1513 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1514
1515 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1516 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1517 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1518 previous public/private status.
1519
1520 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1521 correctly.
1522
1523 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1524 private sequences).
1525
1526 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1527 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1528 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1529
1530 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1531 take option to determine whether it should get current
1532 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1533 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1534
1535 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1536
1537 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1538 wait for stopped processes.
1539
1540 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1541 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1542
1543 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1544
1545 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1546
1547 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1548 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1549
1550 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1551 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1552
1553 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1554 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1555 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1556 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1557
1558 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1559 status allocation).
1560
1561 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1562 the code.
1563
1564 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1565
1566 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1567 the debugging output.
1568
1569 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1570 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1571
1572 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1573
1574 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1575
1576 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1577 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1578
1579 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1580
1581 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1582 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1583 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1584 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1585 in the given sequence.
1586
1587 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1588 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1589 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1590 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1591 subdirectories of a given directory.
1592
1593 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1594 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1595 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1596
1597 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1598 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1599
1600 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1601
1602 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1603 to 0700 (was 0711).
1604
1605 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1606 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1607 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1608
1609 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1610 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1611 are calculated at runtime.
1612
1613 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1614
1615 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1616
1617 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1618 about checking for global mh.profile.
1619
1620 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1621 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1622 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1623 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1624 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1625 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1626
1627 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1628 adding message to folder itself.
1629
1630 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1631 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1632 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1633 instead of exiting.
1634
1635 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1636 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1637 the error EEXIST.
1638
1639 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1640 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1641 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1642
1643 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1644 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1645
1646 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1647 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1648 code to use it yet).
1649
1650 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1651
1652 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1653
1654 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1655 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1656
1657 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1658 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1659
1660 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1661
1662 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1663 to folder_addmsg.c
1664
1665 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1666
1667 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1668
1669 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1670
1671 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1672
1673 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1674 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).
1675
1676 * Removed all the TMA (trusted mail agent) code
1677
1678 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1679
1680 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1681
1682 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1683
1684 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1685
1686 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1687 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1688
1689 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1690 configuration files.
1691
1692 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1693
1694 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1695
1696 * Released nmh-0.17.
1697
1698 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1699
1700 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1701 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1702
1703 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1704 defined.
1705
1706 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1707 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1708
1709 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1710 number of refiled message.
1711
1712 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1713
1714 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1715 for return value of wait().
1716
1717 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1718
1719 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1720
1721 * Released nmh-0.16.
1722
1723 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1724
1725 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1726
1727 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1728 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1729 deal with binary messages, yet).
1730
1731 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1732
1733 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1734
1735 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1736 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1737 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1738 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1739 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1740 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1741
1742 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1743 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1744
1745 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1746 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1747
1748 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1749 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1750 MH-6.8.4 patch).
1751
1752 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1753
1754 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1755
1756 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1757 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1758 composition files.
1759
1760 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1761 files.
1762
1763 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1764
1765 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1766 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1767 which used unsigned chars by default.
1768
1769 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1770
1771 * Released nmh-0.15.
1772
1773 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages
1774 which are in any sequence in Unseen-Sequence.
1775
1776 * Do some rearranging of date/time code in zotnet/tws/dtime.c
1777
1778 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1779
1780 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1781 return 0.
1782
1783 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1784 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1785 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1786
1787 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1788 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1789
1790 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1791
1792 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1793 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1794
1795 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1796 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1797 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1798 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1799
1800 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1801 and put in own subroutine.
1802
1803 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1804 and put in own subroutine.
1805
1806 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1807 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1808 refile.c to use new routine.
1809
1810 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1811
1812 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1813
1814 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1815 seq_getnum.
1816
1817 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1818 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1819 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1820
1821 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1822 no longer used.
1823
1824 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1825 adding message to sequence.
1826
1827 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1828 corresponding file in sbr.
1829
1830 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
1831 file in sbr.
1832
1833 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
1834
1835 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
1836 all selected messages from a sequence.
1837
1838 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
1839 selected messages to a sequence.
1840
1841 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
1842 and m_seqok.c.

1848
1849 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1850
1851 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file
1852 sbr/m_gmsg.c to sbr/m_readfolder.c.
1853
1854 Mon May 5 19:57:11 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1855
1856 * Expanded rcvtty man page, and added small patch from
1857 MH-6.8.4 distribution.
1858
1859 Fri May 2 15:24:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1860
1861 * Released nmh-0.14.
1862
1863 * Comment out configure test and code for tgetent to allocate its
1864 own termcap buffer when passed a NULL argument.
1865
1866 Sat Apr 26 03:46:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1867
1868 * Added new options `-checkmime', `-nocheckmime', and `-mhnproc'
1869 to show. Restructured code to handle options to various
1870 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
1871 environment variable.
1872
1873 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
1874 draft folder facility in nmh.
1875
1876 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h
1877 to fmt_compile.h.
1878
1879 * split fmtsbr.c into fmt_scan.c and fmt_new.c. Renamed
1880 fmtcompile.c to fmt_compile.c, and formataddr.c to
1881 fmt_addr.c.
1882
1883 * `send -help' wasn't showing the -(no)mime and -split
1884 options.
1885

1887
1888 * Released nmh-0.13.
1889
1890 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
1891 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
1892 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
1893 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
1894 to MAXARGS).
1895
1896 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
1897 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
1898
1899 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1900
1901 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
1902 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
1903
1904 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1905
1906 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
1907 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.
1908
1909 Mon Apr 21 02:19:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1910
1911 * Released nmh-0.12.
1912
1913 * Had set_exists and unset_exists macros backwards.
1914
1915 * Released nmh-0.11.
1916
1917 Thu Apr 10 02:39:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1918
1919 * Added documentation to mh-profile.man about the various
1920 `procs' (mhlproc, showproc, lproc, etc...).
1921
1922 * Replace the bit twiddling for SELECTED, UNSEEN, and
1923 mp->attrstats with macros.
1924
1925 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
1926 in msh.c instead.
1927
1928 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
1929 to hide dd->dd_fd.
1930
1931 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
1932 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
1933
1934 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
1935 will suppress the display of the message header.
1936
1937 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
1938
1939 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
1940 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
1941
1942 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
1943
1944 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
1945
1946 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
1947
1948 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
1949 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
1950
1951 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
1952 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
1953
1954 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
1955
1956 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
1957
1958 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
1959 folder/message structure when done with folder.
1960
1961 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
1962 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
1963
1964 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1965
1966 * Released nmh-0.10.

1971 by default.
1972
1973 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1974
1975 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
1976 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
1977
1978 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
1979 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
1980
1981 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
1982 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
1983
1984 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1985
1986 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
1987 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
1988
1989 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1990
1991 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
1992 of missing tabs in regex.
1993
1994 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2008
2009 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.

2013
2014 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2015
2016 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2017 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2018
2019 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2020
2021 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2022 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2023
2024 * Released nmh-0.08.
2025
2026 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2027 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2028 locking database itself.
2029
2030 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2031
2032 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2033
2034 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2035 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2036 option.
2037
2038 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2039 rather than mmdf format.
2040
2041 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2042 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2043 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2044 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2045
2046 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2047
2048 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2049
2050 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2051 added to packf.
2052
2053 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2054 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2055 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2056
2057 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2058 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2059 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2060
2061 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2062
2063 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2064 can still easily change this in config.h).
2065
2066 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2067 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2068 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2069
2070 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2071
2072 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2073 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2074
2075 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2076
2077 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.

2084 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2085
2086 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2087 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2088
2089 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2090 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2091 on SCO 5.x.
2092
2093 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2094 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2095
2096 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2097 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2098
2099 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2100
2101 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2102
2103 * Added configure check for tzset.
2104
2105 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2106
2107 * Released nmh-0.06.
2108
2109 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2110 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2111
2112 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2113 many such machines around anymore.
2114
2115 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2116 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2117
2118 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2119 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2120
2121 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2122
2123 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2124 pre-generated version if necessary.
2125
2126 * Released nmh-0.05.
2127
2128 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2129 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2130 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2131 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2132
2133 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2134 be linked in one pass.
2135
2136 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2137
2138 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2139 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2140
2141 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2142
2143 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2144
2145 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2146
2147 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2148 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2149 become the current folder.
2150
2151 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2152
2153 * Released nmh-0.04.
2154

2156 it.
2157
2158 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2159
2160 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2161 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2162 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2163
2164 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2165
2166 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2167 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2168
2169 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2170
2171 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2172 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2173 using POP.
2174
2175 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2176 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2177
2178 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2179
2180 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2181 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2182 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2183 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2184 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2185 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2186
2187 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2188
2189 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2190 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2191
2192 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2193 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2194
2195 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2196
2197 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2198 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2199
2200 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2201
2202 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2203 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2204 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2205
2206 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2207
2208 * Released nmh-0.03.
2209
2210 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2211 .mh_sequence file existed.
2212
2213 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2214 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2215
2216 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2217 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2218 man page.
2219
2220 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2221
2222 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2223 flist man page.
2224
2225 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2226
2227 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2228 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2229 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2230
2231 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2232
2233 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2234 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2235 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2236
2237 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2238
2239 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2240 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2241
2242 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2243
2244 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2245
2246 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2247 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2248 directory from where the source code is located.
2249
2250 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2251
2252 * Released nmh-0.02.
2253

2262 and sys_nerr directly.
2263
2264 Mon Dec 30 02:15:25 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2265
2266 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2267

2269
2270 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2271
2272 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2273 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2274 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2275 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2276 rather than in script.
2277
2278 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2279
2280 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2281
2282 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2283 macro defined on Solaris.
2284
2285 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2286
2287 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2288 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2289
2290 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2291 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2292 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2293 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2294 options if enabled.
2295
2296 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2297
2298 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2299 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2300
2301 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2302 correctly found.
2303
2304 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2305
2306 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2307
2308 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included
2309 in mhn.c. Changed md5 to use memset and memcpy.
2310
2311 Fri Dec 20 02:29:37 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2312
2313 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2314 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2315
2316 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2317
2318 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2319 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2320 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2321 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2322 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2323 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2324
2325 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2326
2327 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2328
2329 * Released nmh-0.01.
2330
2331 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2332 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2333 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2334 have POSIX signals.
2335
2336 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2337
2338 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2339 their man pages.
2340
2341 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2342
2343 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2344 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2345
2346 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2347
2348 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2349 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2350 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2351 script to find_program.
2352
2353 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2354
2355 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2356 speed up -recurse option.
2357
2358 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2359 yet, but it compiles :-)
2360
2361 * Changed default location for install to
2362 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2363 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2364 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2365 level Makefile.
2366
2367 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2368 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2369 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
