3 * Moved Kimmo's new "--with-hash-backup" to be output with the
4 rest of the --with options in the configure --help output.
6 * One more pass at README.developers now that it's clear that my
7 previously-suggested one-line autoconf-file commit can cause
8 unnecessary local makes and an out-of-sync stamp-h.in file, but
9 would not cause problems for other people using the CVS files.
11 * Ken Hornstein's SASL patch was not integrated properly with
12 Ruud's new merged mts/sendmail code. Kimmo has since fixed nmh so
13 it compiles, but according to Ken, the SASL stuff still does not
14 work. Integrating a patch from him for this.
16 Tue Jul 18 19:36:59 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
18 * Added the answer to Dan's question in README.developers.
20 Mon Jul 17 19:10:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
22 * Clarified and made some corrections to Kimmo's README.developers
23 changes (BTW, if anyone can explain why the RCS Ids are able to cause
24 problems with the dependencies, please fill in the explanation --
25 I never encountered a problem with the old single-commit method).
27 Sat Jul 15 23:13:49 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
29 * Add configure option --with-hash-backup so the backup prefix can
30 be easily changed from "," to "#".
32 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that it works with any make.
34 * Use mkstemp in sbr/lock_file.c.
36 * Commits of autoconf-related files apparently can't all be done
37 in one shot due to RCS Ids changing when committing -- updated
40 Tue Jul 11 14:18:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
42 * Clarified post.man and send.man for those not completely up on
43 SASL terminology. "SASL encryption layers are not supported for
44 SMTP" means that encryption is supported for the authentication
45 but not for the subsequent data stream.
47 Sat Jul 8 01:36:19 EDT 2000 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>
49 * Applied Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>'s patches
50 implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
51 with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
52 post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
53 SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
55 Sat Jun 10 18:37:59 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
57 * Merged mts/sendmail functionality into mts/smtp; switching between
58 smtp and sendmail delivery method is now controlled by mts.conf.
60 * If tsort cannot deal with loops, in addition to defining tsort as
61 cat, also define lorder as echo.
63 * Removed uip/popi.c from list of sources.
65 Thu Jun 08 19:36:57 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
67 * New dtimep.lex didn't parse day names properly. Fixed. Also
68 clarified ambiguous comments preceding day_map[] array (from old
69 dtimep.lex) that probably led to the erroneous cp++ being added.
71 Wed Jun 7 20:52:33 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
73 * Added one more mkstemp invocation to uip/spost.c (which was in a
76 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to clean up permissions handling
77 and error handling in uip/inc.c.
79 Mon Jun 5 22:10:07 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
81 * Use cat instead of tsort if tsort cannot deal with loops in its
82 input (which is the case for tsort from GNU textutils).
84 Mon Jun 5 21:14:36 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
86 * If lockfile is present, and its dotlockfile program is setgid,
87 inc does not need to be setgid.
89 Sun Jun 4 21:35:40 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
91 * Added autoconf test for Miquel van Smoorenburg's liblockfile
92 library, as found on Debian systems.
94 * Added liblockfile support to sbr/lock_file.c.
96 Wed May 31 7:19:30 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
98 * Fixed up dtimep.lex a bit. Added back memory options for AIX to
99 increase available memory. Took out %option noyywrap, which
100 wasn't understood by AT&T lex, as well as the -i
101 case-insensitivity flag.
103 Wed May 31 07:40:45 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
105 * Added a lint target to the Makefiles and a check in autoconf
106 to determine whether lint or lclint exists on the system.
108 Fri May 30 19:21:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
110 * etc/Makefile.in was incorrectly installing mts.conf.in and
111 sendfiles.in -- fixed. Generated sendfiles script was not a
112 dependency of the `all' target, and was incorrectly included in
113 the distribution. Changed the suffix for the backed-up previous
114 versions of the etc files from the ambiguous .old to .prev. Added
115 call to diff -- only keep the .prev files around if different from
116 the newly-installed versions (intentionally didn't redirect output
117 to /dev/null so you'll notice when your changed versions are
118 getting moved aside).
120 * INSTALL never documented the etc/*.old thing. Documented the
121 new etc/*.prev thing (including a note to watch for diff output).
123 * Applied Alec Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu>'s dropsbr.c patch:
125 In the map_write routine, a call is made to map_open and this
126 call is supposed to set the "clear" variable to 0 or 1,
127 depending on whether the map file is empty or not. In
128 mh6.8.3, this worked because map_open would set "clear" by
129 calling the mbx_Xopen routine. In nmh, the code for mbx_Xopen
130 was merged into mbx_open, but the interface for mbx_open
131 doesn't support the clear variable, so that functionality was
132 lost. The map_open interface still contains "int *clear" in
133 the prototype, but never sets it.
135 My patch eliminates "clear" from the map_open interface (I
136 checked to make sure that map_write is the only client of
137 map_open). Furthermore, my patch also sets the "clear"
138 variable properly at the beginning of map_write by calling
139 fstat(). This eliminates the bug in that the value of "clear"
140 being used later in the routine was just stack garbage.
142 Having a bad value of clear causes this next bug to be
143 triggered: The fp file pointer was being opened with fdopen,
144 but in two of the three switch cases it wasn't being closed.
145 In certain cases, this was causing packf to run out of file
146 descriptors if you attempted to pack a large folder.
148 Mon May 29 7:48:15 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
150 * Moved the date parsing routines from zotnet/tws to sbr/ (and
151 tws.h to h/). Updated all source files to reflect to new location
154 * Rewrote dparsetime (in dtimep.lex -> dtimep.c) to replace the
155 old zotnet/tws/dtimep.c, dtimep.lex, lexstring.c, lexedit.c, and
156 dtimep.c-lexed. It should now work with flex (although untested
157 with lex), and requires no sed-ing. For now, I have the lexed
158 version in the distribution, so that end-users don't need to worry
159 about running it through flex/lex. I have not added back support
160 for guessing the time zone when it's not specified.
162 Sun May 28 17:44:15 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
164 * Added autoconf check for getutent().
166 * Changed uip/rcvtty.c and uip/slocal.c to use getutent() and
167 friends. Since I can only check on Linux, please check if
168 this works on other systems.
170 Sun May 28 14:58:49 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
172 * Applied patch from Peter Maydell to uip/scansbr.c for more
173 checks for write failures.
175 * Unlink temporary file properly in uip/rcvtty.c.
177 * Moved viamail from bindir to libdir.
179 * Changed sendfiles into sendfiles.in, so that path to viamail
182 * Added gzip support to sendfiles.
184 * Added References header to replcomps and replgroupcomps.
186 Sun May 28 14:39:31 CEST 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
188 * Fixed m_getfld bug which caused segmentation faults when
189 incorporating messages which ended in multiple linefeeds crossing
192 Fri May 26 13:21:59 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
194 * msh has been unable to show MIME messages ever since 1.0. Alec
195 Wolman <wolman@cs.washington.edu> tracked down the problem to the
196 -show flag being passed to mhshow. mhshow is equivalent to the
197 old mhn -show, so we don't need the -show anymore. Removed it.
199 Fri May 12 02:51:21 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
201 * zotnet/bboards is not longer built by default. Goal is to move
202 the assorted functions in zotnet into sbr or some more logical
205 * Moved zotnet/mf to sbr, and changed mf.h references accordingly,
206 as well as Makefiles.
208 Thu May 11 02:21:34 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
210 * Simplified sbr/Makefile.in so that both SRCS and OBJS aren't
211 seperately and redundantly defined, but so that OBJS is a
212 pattern-substituted version of SRCS with suffix .c -> .o. This
213 should make maintainability easier.
215 * Added section to MACHINES indicating what platforms nmh is known
216 to compile and work on, just to give users peace of mind, or
217 something. This is by no means complete or exhaustive, so add
218 whatever you know works.
220 Tue May 09 20:38:04 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
222 * Alphabetized Shantonu's $pop_kinds output on configure's "pop is
223 enabled" line. If POP3 is the only kind of POP enabled, say so,
224 rather than just saying "yes" (which is ambiguous).
226 * Fixed four warnings in Shantonu's new getpass.c. Needed to
227 #include <stdlib.h> for calloc(), <unistd.h> for ttyname(), and
228 "h/mh.h" for adios(). Also changed ch from char to int to get rid
229 of "comparison is always 1 due to limited range of data type" on EOF.
231 * Added steps to README.developers saying to change the version
232 number to X.Y.Z+dev. Did a little rearranging and changed the FTP
233 dir from /home/ftp to /var/ftp to reflect Doug's new machine.
235 * Changed configure.in to use gcc -Wall even without
236 --enable-debug, to prevent developers compiling optimized from
237 introducing warnings, and to give end-users a warm, fuzzy feeling
238 as they (hopefully) see no warnings come out (except perhaps on
239 the lex output file) even with -Wall.
241 * Renamed getpass() to nmh_getpass() since the prototype for
242 getpass() varies from OS to OS, and we want to _always_ use our
243 version of the function. Fixed all the callers to use
244 nmh_getpass() and added it to prototypes.h. Semi-arbitrarily
245 upped MAX_PASSWORD_LEN from 128 to 256. buf was being calloc()'d
246 and the memory leaked -- should have just been declared as static
247 char array. Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the
248 copyright message, as this version has been changed significantly
249 from the BSD version.
251 * Added "nmh-local functions to use in preference to OS versions"
252 section to README.developers (currently just says to use
253 nmh_getpass() instead of system getpass()).
255 * Prepended "Portions of this code are" to the copyright message
258 * Added mts.conf.5 page per Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s
261 This happens on solaris:
264 windex entry incorrect: mts.conf(5) not found.
265 No manual entry for mts.conf.
269 % echo ".so man5/mh-tailor.5" > mts.conf.5
271 done in the man5 directory. We need to add 'mts.conf.5' as a
272 reference sourcing mh-tailor.5.
274 Mon May 08 23:51:55 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
276 * Doug informed me that the way I had restored the "lost" version
277 histories was wrong, because `cvs checkout's of old versions of
278 nmh wouldn't work properly. It occurs to me that this could be
279 fixed by simply deleting those tags in the new-location *,v files,
280 but oh well. I'm putting everything back to the way Doug
281 originally had it. To get the old version history for a file that
282 used to be in the top directory, you'll need to "blindly" do a
283 `cvs log' there (even though you won't have a local copy of the
284 file in that directory). `cvs diff' will no longer be able to
285 diff pre-move versions vs. post-move versions -- you'll have to do
286 a lot of manual gyrations with `cvs checkout' and then use `diff'.
288 * I had alphabetized the --configure options in the --help output
289 awhile back, but Shantonu added --enable-apop just under
290 --enable-pop. Put it in alphabetical order and clarified what
291 --enable-apop does vs. --enable-pop and --with-krb4. Also changed
292 --with-mts help line from "mail transport agent" to "mail
293 transport agent/service" so the 's' in "mts" doesn't seem to come
296 * Added two steps to "releasing nmh" in README.developers. After
297 making the tarball, it's a good idea to diff the tree vs. the CVS
298 tree to make sure no files got left out, and then to chown the
299 files so that they're owned by root, preventing a Trojaning attack
300 by a malicious remote user with a UID matching yours.
302 * Changed DIFFERENCES to say that RPOP is not currently supported
303 rather than implying it by saying that APOP, KPOP, and POP[3] are.
305 Sun May 07 18:16:43 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
307 * Imported NetBSD version of getpass() and made extensive
308 revisions for compatibility with programs that pipe the password
309 to stdin, such as exmh.
311 * Removed tests for system ruserpass() which sometimes gave
312 phantom positive results. Also, bext to use internal functions if
313 we ever want to change .netrc format to something else, or access
316 Sat May 06 08:28:09 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
318 * Restored lost version histories for those moved files by doing a
319 manual `mv' in the CVSROOT on mhost. CVS badly needs a `cvs mv'
320 command so that you can move files (without having physical access
321 to the CVSROOT) without losing versioning. Put MACHINES back at
322 the top level as it needs to be read before building. Fixed DIST
323 variable in {.,docs}/Makefile.in to reflect that and to add
324 missing entry for "INSTALL" file.
326 Sat May 06 13:13:07 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
328 * Re-cleaned up nmh documentation (by moving things to docs
329 subdir) and modified Makefile & configure.in to handle the change.
331 Mon Apr 17 21:28:40 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
333 * Scott Blachowicz pointed out that the configure --help output
334 for --enable-masquerade was misleading. Clarified.
336 Mon Apr 17 19:01:00 2000 Shantonu Sen <ssen@mit.edu>
338 * APOP support can be compiled in to inc and msgchk using
341 * To access an APOP host, specify -apop on the command line
342 along with any -host or -user option.
344 Fri Apr 14 23:10:44 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
346 * Upped the version number to 1.0.4+dev until the next nmh release.
348 * Added a "releasing nmh" section to README.developers, while the
349 process was fresh in my mind.
351 Fri Apr 14 18:21:34 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
353 * Added new files README.developers, ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6, and
354 ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html to DIST target in Makefile.in.
356 * Released nmh-1.0.4.
358 Tue Apr 11 21:37:03 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
360 * Applied Brian Campbell <bacam@tardis.ed.ac.uk>'s mhn.defaults.sh
363 It appears that there shouldn't be quotes around the %s in the
364 iso-8859-1 charset entry; xterm passes the remaining arguments
365 to the program, quoting them means that xterm thinks they're
366 part of the program's name.
368 This %s isn't the same as the "Insert content subtype" one from
369 mhshow-show-* -- it doesn't come from MIME headers and is safe not
372 Sun Apr 09 13:03:59 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
374 * added check in fmt_compile() to handle a single-character
375 format string. fmt_compile() depends on having an array of
376 format characters with an empty item at the end. A
377 single-character format would cause programs using this
378 function to segfault because the algorithm used to decide on
379 the length of the array mistakenly created a single-item array
380 when the format string was one character. This eventually
381 caused problems when the program attempted to test item+1
384 Thu Apr 06 21:53:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
386 * Richard Coleman threw out a lot of old MH-specific files in nmh.
387 Much of the stuff, indeed, is not worth saving, but there are
388 nuggets that are very worthwhile, and should probably be added
389 back in. Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they
390 can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or
391 "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?"
393 I've added a new file to the nmh tree called
394 ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the
395 mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries
396 to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the
397 ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for
398 versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at
399 <ftp://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/mh>. Also, it appears to me that there
400 are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs.
402 I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is
403 based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format
404 and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was
405 loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to
406 HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "<B>" and "<U>"
407 tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite
408 doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that
409 some of the changes this file documents as having been made in
410 MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3
411 and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff.
413 Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
415 * Applied Eric Schnoebelen <eric@cirr.com>'s mhshowsbr.c patch
416 fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code:
418 Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors
419 while attempting to process some MIME messages:
421 (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
426 (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
428 (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in
429 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by
430 mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in
431 mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux().
433 Resolving the pointer reference issue in
434 mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting
435 problem in the routine.
437 Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
439 * Applied Todd.Miller@courtesan.com's patch to dropsbr.c to
440 prevent core dumping on packf. Here's the note from his message:
442 Since sizeof(buffer) == sizeof(tmpbuffer) packf will dump
443 core on a file w/o a From line with a line >= BUFSIZ.
444 I noticed this because I had a junk file in my mail
447 Fri Mar 17 11:59:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
449 * wesley.craig@umich.edu did not document his previous KPOP patch,
450 so I did so, and asked him to check what I wrote. Unfortunately
451 he didn't notice my misunderstanding of his patch. I wrote that
452 if you #define POPSERVICE "kpop", inc and msgchk will use KPOP
453 exclusively, but if you leave it as "pop3", you can use Wesley's
454 new -kpop switch on a given invocation. Instead, however, -kpop
455 turned out to be necessary on every invocation, and a KPOP user
456 complained. Applied Wesley's new patch, which makes things work
457 like I thought his original patch did. After that, did one more
458 clarifying pass to the documentation in inc.man and msgchk.man.
460 Wed Mar 15 18:45:45 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
462 * When I fixed the long-standing makedir() bugs in January, I had
463 the code call strtoul(..., 0), which I believed to be safe as all
464 modes specified as ASCII constants in the nmh code started with a
465 leading zero (signifying octal), which I did as it would work if
466 internal constants were ever changed to hex. Unfortunately I was
467 unaware of the "Folder-Protect:" .mh_profile entry, which
468 mh-profile.man documents as an octal-only constant, with no
469 leading zero required. I've changed the strtoul() call to an
470 atooi() call and removed the misleading leading zeroes on the
471 ASCII octal constants in the code and man pages. Also changed the
472 "Folder-Protect:" example in the man page to something more
473 interesting than a duplication of the default.
475 * When I added my --enable-masquerade option, you'll note that I
476 didn't make it --enable-nmh-masquerade. I find the --enable-nmh-*
477 options too wordy and I'm not sure why Richard went that route.
478 I've renamed them to just --enable-*, but the old versions will
479 still work as well (they just aren't advertised).
481 * Added a line to the "nmh configuration" output saying whether
484 * Added a new README.developers file. From the file:
486 This file is intended to provide a few tips for anyone doing
487 development on nmh. Developers who learn things "the hard
488 way" about the nmh codebase (as opposed to local info best
489 encoded in a comment) are encouraged to share their wisdom
492 Currently the topics are "autoconf files" and "directory structure".
494 Tue Mar 14 12:41:48 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
496 * Applied, after some finessing,
497 Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s --with-smtpservers patch:
499 Here's a patch that allows you to add
501 --with-smtpservers=<some.host.name>
503 to the ./configure command line to set the "servers: " line in
504 etc/mts.conf. Around here, we use "mailhost" so that all
505 machines in the current domain just talk to a central machine
506 and nothing else runs an MTA. Now, I can use
508 --with-smtpservers=mailhost
510 instead of having to remember to fix this by hand (and often
511 forgetting to do so!).
513 * Inspired by Simon's patch, added an --enable-masquerade option
514 to configure. It will set the "masquerade:" line of mts.conf.
515 You may specify a subset of the three types of masquerading, like
516 --enable-masquerade="draft_from mmailid", or leave off explicit
517 arguments to enable all three types.
519 * Alphabetized the --enable and --with options in configure.in and
520 INSTALL and added documentation of the two new options to the latter.
522 * Added new dependency for mts.conf: Makefile. If this isn't
523 done, then when you reconfigure nmh with new values for
524 --enable-masquerade or --with-smtpservers, you'll fail to get an
525 updated copy of mts.conf.
527 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtimep.lex patch:
529 It seems that some MUA's didn't handle y2k very well - ELM
530 seems to be one of them, and Ultrix's DXmail (based on MH!).
531 I've got a few emails this month that look like:
533 575 Jan 00 Xxxxxx Xxxx 3603 ...
535 22+ Jan 00 Xxx Xxxxx 1771 ...
537 The first has "15 Jan 100" as the date and the second has
538 "19 Jan 00" as the date. The following works around this so
539 that scan, show, sortm, etc work ok.
541 I put Simon's patch under the control of a new #define called
542 FIX_NON_Y2K_COMPLIANT_MUA_DATES. There's some commentary in
543 acconfig.h about when you might not want to #define it.
545 * Created new dtimep.c-lexed with Simon's change using dtimep.lex
546 lexed on Solaris 2.6. Added missing dependency in
547 zotnet/tws/Makefile.in for dtimep.c: dtimep.c-lexed.
549 * Added scan.MMDDYY and scan.YYYYMMDD format files.
551 Mon Mar 13 21:32:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
553 * Applied Sullivan N. Beck <sbeck@cise.ufl.edu>'s mhshow-suffix patch:
555 With the patch below, you can add lines like:
557 mhshow-suffix-application/msword: .doc
558 mhshow-suffix-application/PostScript: .ps
560 to the mhn.defaults file to append the given suffix to a
561 scratch file. This allows applications which require a
562 certain suffix to run properly.
564 * Removed -force_html from lynx entry in mhn.defaults.sh (I
565 believe older versions of lynx lack that option) and added
566 "mhshow-suffix-text/html: .html".
568 * Modified username_extension masquerading to only use the
569 extended address on generated [Resent-]From: lines and SMTP
570 envelope From:. With Neil's original implementation, nmh's global
571 idea of the username was changed, which would result in inc lying
572 and saying you had no new mail because it was looking for a
573 mailbox called, for instance, "dan-nmh" (where username was "dan"
574 and $USERNAME_EXTENSION was "-nmh").
576 * Applied Simon Burge <simonb@thistledown.com.au>'s dtime.c patch:
578 There's a wrap-around problem that affects the implementation
579 of Zeller's congruence in dtime.c. This causes the day-of-week
580 calculations to fail for dates after Feb 29, 2000 (probably up
581 until some year far in the future).
583 Mon Mar 06 12:20:20 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
585 * Applied Neil W Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>'s msh.c patch:
587 I finally tracked down the problem in msh that was causing
588 errors whenever I tried to examine a 'mmdf' style mailbox.
590 It turns out that not enough memory was being allocated with
591 calloc(), causing memory pointers to be overwritten and
594 Fri Mar 03 16:07:33 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
596 * Changed the new "plussed_user" option to mts.conf's
597 "masquerade:" to "username_extension" after getting feedback from
598 qmail users, who use '-' as a separator rather than '+'. Removed
599 checking of $USERPLUS variable. Now check $USERNAME_EXTENSION,
600 which needs to include the appropriate separator for your MTA
601 ('-', '+', or whatever) as its first character.
603 Thu Mar 02 23:04:30 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
605 * Added a new "boolean" type to mh.h and TRUE and FALSE constants.
607 * Added a note to DIFFERENCES stating that it's out-of-date
608 (Richard was the last one to update it) and that we should
609 consider only documenting incompatibilities with MH there.
611 * Implemented (and documented) a third kind of username
612 masquerading: "plussed user" masquerading. This one was suggested
613 by Neil Rickert <rickert+nmh@cs.niu.edu>. It's based on sendmail's
614 "plussed user" feature, where mail sent to <user>+<string> will be
615 delivered to <user>. When it's enabled, it's controlled by the
616 $USERPLUS environment variable. How is it enabled? Well, that
619 * Renamed the "mmailid:" setting in mts.conf to "masquerade:", and
620 changed it so that rather than being a boolean, it can be set to
621 any combination of the three values "draft_from", "mmailid", and
622 "plussed_user". Thus it is now possible to enable the three types
623 of masquerading individually.
625 * Fixed a bug with "mmailid" masquerading (dating back to MH?)
626 where if it was turned on, ','s would no longer be considered
627 GECOS field delimiters.
629 Wed Mar 01 23:30:50 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
631 * Changed the GECOS-field '&' translation behavior to be
632 controlled by the BSD42 #define rather than GCOS_HACK, since it's
633 apparently always appropriate on OSes where BSD42 is #defined, and
634 never appropriate on any other OSes. Thanks to Kimmo Suominen for
635 responding to my "What is this code here for?" comment in mts.c
636 and explaining the feature.
638 Mon Feb 28 21:50:29 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
640 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3+dev (ideally this should be
641 done by whoever makes a release tar file, immediately after doing
644 * Applied Paul Fox <pgf-spam@foxharp.boston.ma.us>'s scansbr.c
645 patch, posted to comp.mail.mh, which he says prevents loss of mail
646 when inc'ing into a full filesystem.
648 * Changed "echo > stamp-h.in" in Makefile.in to "date > stamp-h.in"
649 so that stamp-h.in will be different each time configure.in and
650 related files are changed, making it easier to check it in (which
651 is necessary to prevent unnecessary autoconf calls).
653 * My declaration of initgroups() in slocal.c to eliminate the "no
654 prototype" warning wasn't portable (FreeBSD 3.[23] choked). Now
655 use AC_EGREP_HEADER to see where initgroups() is declared, if
658 Sun Feb 20 12:17:15 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
660 * Fix security hole in mhshowsbr.c which allowed untrusted shell
663 * Released nmh 1.0.3.
665 Thu Feb 10 10:54:36 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
667 * Oops. %-escapes on mhstore lines in mhn.defaults.sh should not
668 be surrounded by single quotes, as a shell is not spawned when
669 just saving files, and the filenames will end up with literal
670 quotes embedded in them.
672 Fri Feb 04 12:29:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
674 * Whoever originally added the -help switch to all the commands
675 got too cute and had the option itself print out as "-(help)" in
676 the -help output. One theory is that they were making reference
677 to the fact that clearly you know about the -help option since
678 you're currently looking at its output. I think it's a bad idea
679 to overload the meaning of the parentheses, however -- they're
680 supposed to indicate what abbreviated prefix of the switch you're
683 The other theory is that because you can say something like
684 "mhstore -" and get "mhstore: - ambiguous. It matches" followed
685 by the same list of switches you get with -help, they were saying
686 you can "sorta" abbreviate "-help" as "-". You don't get the
687 "Usage:" string, though, so it's not really the same thing.
689 Thu Feb 03 17:52:01 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
691 * Applied wesley.craig@umich.edu's KPOP patches. According to him:
693 The following patch fixes a problem with requesting a
694 service key for a machine that has multiple 'A' records. It
695 also makes "-kpop" a command line option, for users who
696 would like to use both "kpop" and "pop".
698 Did no testing of the new features, as I don't have access to a
701 * Modified inc.man and msgchk.man to document Wesley's new -kpop.
703 * Modified INSTALL and config.h.in to reflect the new -kpop feature.
705 Fri Jan 28 17:39:24 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
707 * All %-escapes in mhn.defaults that actually expand to something
708 should be surrounded by single quotes. Added quotes to the ones
709 in mhn.defaults.sh that were missing them.
711 * Added check for lynx to write mhshow-show-text/html line in
714 Thu Jan 27 12:22:25 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
716 * makedir() had multiple bugs dating back to MH. An octal
717 constant was apparently being interpreted as decimal, resulting in
718 directories with no user read or execute permissions, making
719 nested directory creation fail. And there wasn't even an
720 _attempt_ to set desired permissions (e.g. from "Folder-Protect:"
721 in .mh_profile) on the outer directories of a nested directory.
723 * A second `make install' would always fail because the check for
724 whether mh_profile.5 existed was written incorrectly.
726 Wed Jan 26 02:22:00 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
728 * Added documentation on both types of masquerading to post's man
731 Tue Jan 25 22:58:12 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
733 * Doug's portability fix of my setgid inc autodetection had a
734 caching bug -- if you re-ran configure, uip/Makefile would be
735 corrupted, and installation would bomb out on OSes where inc needs
738 * Implemented a new kind of email address masquerading. Usually,
739 when a user writes a custom "From:" header in a draft, nmh uses it
740 rather than generating one. However, the user's true address is
741 used in the SMTP envelope "From:" and is revealed in the "Sender:"
742 header. Now, when mmailid is set to non-zero, the envelope
743 "From:" uses the address specified in the draft "From:" header,
744 and there is no "Sender:" header. This is useful when sending on
745 behalf of a remote POP3 account or when remote mail robots
746 incorrectly use the envelope "From:" in preference to the body
747 "From:". This processing has only been implemented for post, not
748 for the undocumented spost (which was already missing some "From:"
749 processing that post has).
751 Mon Jan 24 22:26:06 2000 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
753 * Got rid of the rest of the gcc -Wall warnings that I didn't have
754 time for on 1999-07-15 (and, it would seem, some new ones people
755 introduced since then). The primary ones were the warnings that
756 default prototypes were being used for [v]snprintf() and
757 str[n]casecmp(). As of right now, there are _no_ compilation
758 warnings except on dtimep.c-lexed (at least under AIX 4.1.5 and
761 Sun Jan 2 23:42:18 2000 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
763 * Move mhtest from bindir to libdir.
765 * Move sendfiles from libdir to bindir.
767 * Updated sendfiles manpage to reflect this change.
769 * Added documentation for -build and -file switches to repl and
770 forw manpages (patch from Peter Maydell).
772 * Fixed interaction between specifying -cc in profile and -group on
775 Tue Nov 1 13:48:10 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
777 * Changed the version number from 1.0.3 to 1.0.2+dev. There was
778 not unanimous support for my proposed even/odd release/developer
779 version number dichotomy. 1.0.2+dev implies release 1.0.2 plus
782 Fri Oct 29 13:42:51 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
784 * Upped the version number to 1.0.3. If we don't do this, then
785 when people report bugs against 1.0.2, we won't know "which" 1.0.2
786 they're talking about (since the development source is publically
787 available via CVS). I think the Linux kernel version numbers are
788 a good model, so the next time we roll a tarball, it should be
789 version 1.0.4 (or higher -- anyhow, an even-numbered version).
791 Fri Oct 29 06:41:08 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
793 * Released nmh-1.0.2.
795 Tue Oct 26 22:57:00 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
797 * Added check for whether "libtool" is in fact gnu libtool. If
798 it is, it is not used. This is the wrong behavior. If vendor
799 XYZ later on decides to create yet another libtool, we'll be
800 caught again. This works for now.
802 * Minor updates to MACHINES refering to Mac OS X.
804 Thu Oct 21 20:45:37 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
806 * Added check for "libtool" (a ranlib type tool for Mac OS X)
807 and modified Makefiles so that nmh will build under Mac OS X.
809 Sun Oct 17 08:28:56 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
811 * Changed repl defaults to partly revert to MH behaviour,
812 "-cc all" is now only implied with -group.
814 * The replcomps template includes cc: header again (as in MH).
816 * Updated repl man page to reflect these changes.
818 Sat Oct 16 02:57:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
820 * Tweaked configure to handle Solaris and SunOS after the BIND
821 changes. Both need more cleanup.
823 Sat Oct 16 00:17:36 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
825 * Removed BIND define and replaced it with a check for
826 gethostbyname (to determine if the host is DNS aware) and a
827 check for sethostent. This appears to be the right thing to
828 do, but there is no explanation of the reasoning behind the
829 BIND define in the code and it appears to have been used for
832 Wed Oct 13 15:53:53 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
834 * Updated manpages Makefile to link mh-profile.5 to
835 mh_profile.5 after installation. Suggestion from Richard Cohen
836 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk>.
838 * Modified configure.in to check for _IO_write_ptr and libio.h
839 to determine whether to define LINUX_STDIO instead of using
842 Mon Oct 4 15:22:46 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
844 * Added '-L' to the calls of 'ls' in configure.in -- I have seen
845 multiple machines in the past where the mail spool was a symlink
846 to a directory on another device with more free space.
848 Fri Oct 1 22:36:56 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
850 * Fixed a portability problem in Doug's fix of a portability
851 problem in my MAILGROUP autoconf support ('ls -l' vs. 'ls -lg').
853 Sat Sep 25 18:40:43 1999 Ruud de Rooij <ruud@ruud.org>
855 * Added config.sub and config.guess to the list of files to be
858 * Fixed bug in sbr/fmt_scan.c where an extra newline would be
859 added if a list of addresses was split over several header lines.
861 * In mts/smtp/smtp.c, undefine strlen and strcpy if they are
862 macros, regardless of platform.
864 * Allow q to quit mhshow, and n to skip to next part. Patch from
865 Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
867 * Modified mhstore to recognize attachments created by sendfiles
868 with x-conversions=gzip.
870 Mon Sep 13 21:20:10 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
872 * added explicit cast to long from time_t for tclock in
875 * Commented out #ifdefs for <sys/ioctl.h> in termsbr.c since
876 it's needed for ioctl() anyway. This prevents a warning about
877 implicit definition of ioctl().
879 * Moved guesses performed by AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM back into the
880 "User Configuration" section of config.h (moved @TOP@ in
881 acconfig.h) so they're easier to find, should someone actually
882 want to mess with them.
884 Sun Sep 12 15:50:34 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
886 * updated Makefile.in so it recognized COMPLETION-TCSH and
887 COMPLETION-ZSH (only used in make nmhdist).
889 * added prototype for ruserpas to <h/prototypes.h>. Fixes
890 warnings in mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
892 * added include checks for <time.h> and <sys/time.h> to
893 prevent warnings in fmt_compile.c, fmt_scan.c, lock_file.c,
894 sendsbr.c, mhbuildsbr.c, mhcachesbr.c, picksbr.c, and post.c.
896 * added include for <zotnet/mts/mts.h> to ali.c, scan.c, ap.c,
897 rcvdist.c, rcvstore.c, rcvtty.c, and spost.c to remove
898 warnings about implicit definition of mts_init().
900 * added <grps.h> to slocal.c to prevent warnings about
903 * added <h/signals.h> to prevent warning about missing SIGNAL
906 * added function prototypes to smtp.c, whatnowproc.c,
907 mhbuildsbr.c, mhparse.c, mshcmds.c, show.c, whatnow.c, mhl.c
910 * explicitly declared mbx_style in mshcmds.c and lused in
911 fmtdump.c as type static int instead of just static to
914 * various code cleanups to prevent ambiguous statements
915 (brackets for if/thens and parens for complicated if
919 Sun Sep 12 09:19:27 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
921 * commented out _cleanup() in mf.c because it's the only
922 location in all of the source code where it exists. It was
923 preventing compilation on at least linux.
925 * Added check for <db1/ndbm.h> which is the new location where
926 linux systems appear to be stuffing this header file.
928 Thu Sep 09 23:15:49 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
930 * fixed varous mkstmep bugs introduced in 1.0.1 by me. Whups!
932 * added mh_profile SEGV patch from Richard Cohen
933 <richard@jubjub.demon.co.uk> that prevents crashing when
934 mh_profile doesn't end in a newline. A similar patch was
935 previously sent in by Andrew Bettison <andrewb@zip.com.au>.
937 * fixed bug in associated with MAILGROUP #define (group "mail"
938 is not universal) -- hard to believe, but true.
940 Tue Sep 7 16:47:03 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
942 * Renamed ZSH.COMPLETION to COMPLETION-ZSH and added COMPLETION-TCSH.
944 Tue Aug 17 16:06:29 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
946 * Automated #define of MAILGROUP and installation of inc as setgid mail
947 when the mail spool directory isn't world-writable.
949 Thu Jul 15 18:37:07 1999 Dan Harkless <dan-nmh@dilvish.speed.net>
951 * slocal -debug used to leave a file in /tmp for each message
952 processed. Very bad for folks with slocal -debug in their .forward!
954 * Got rid of a ton of compilation warnings. Most were "junk"
955 warnings due to the use of gcc -Wall (without -Wno-parentheses),
956 but a few represented real bugs. There remain many warnings to be
957 tackled that are due to missing function prototypes (e.g. snprintf()).
959 * Default rcvdistcomps no longer puts a copy of all outgoing
960 messages in outbox. Added an rcvdistcomps.outbox that does.
962 Sat Jun 09 12:22:47 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
964 * Updated configure to check for mkstemp (available on OpenBSD) and
965 substitute it for mktemp if available.
967 Thu May 13 16:40:19 1999 Doug Morris <doug@mhost.com>
969 * Added config.sub and config.guess and updated acconfig.h and
970 configure.in to automatically detect system type and set the
973 Wed May 12 23:41:33 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
975 * Released nmh-1.0.1.
977 Fri May 7 17:18:28 1999 Dan Winship <danw@mit.edu>
979 * Fixed flist to properly deal with relative folder names.
980 Problem noted by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
982 * Fixed --with-krb4 to work with original Kerberos 4 libraries as
983 well as the Kerberos 5 compat libraries. Based on a patch from
984 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>.
986 * Added a check in configure.in to test if modf is in libc and
987 link with libm if not. This is needed by at least Digital UNIX.
988 Problem pointed out by Kevin Oberman <oberman@es.net>.
990 * Fix a bug from the "mhn -show" to "mhshow" renaming that
991 made the "list" command in whatnow not work for some users.
992 From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
994 * Replaced "extern int errno" with "#include <errno.h>" in a
995 number of files. Suggested by Stephen Wilson Bailey
998 * Fixed a problem in how "packf -mbox" translated "Return-Path:"
999 lines. From Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1001 * Fixed a segmentation fault in inc. Patch originally from Ruud de
1002 Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1004 * Allow display of 8bit encoded messages. From Kimmo Suominen
1005 <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
1007 * Fixed repl to not add line breaks in the middle of long
1008 addresses when building a reply. From Ruud de Rooij
1009 <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1011 * Added -library switch to spost so it can parse user aliases like
1012 post does. From Ruud de Rooij <r.c.m.derooij@twi.tudelft.nl>.
1014 * Changed configure.in's check for sigsetjmp to properly deal
1015 with systems like Linux where it is a macro. From
1016 <elleron@servtech.com>.
1018 * Fixed a bug in whatnow that could cause it to sometimes exit
1019 without prompting the user. Based on a patch by Richard Geiger
1022 * Added code to deal with SIGPIPE in mhl so it doesn't print
1023 "Broken pipe" if you quit out of the moreproc.
1025 * Documentation: Added a note to MACHINES about Irix make. Added a
1026 pointer to the online copy of the MH book in INSTALL. Added
1027 some additional information to the whatnow and packf man pages,
1028 suggested by Jerry Peek <jpeek@jpeek.com>.
1030 * Updated INSTALL, FAQ, etc to not refer to Richard as the
1031 maintainer or math.gatech.edu as the home any more.
1033 1999-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1037 * Merged mbx_open and mbx_Xopen in dropsbr.c. Fixed
1038 mbx_open so that the mode of zero length maildrops
1039 would not be changed.
1041 * Replaced the substitute version of snprintf() with the
1042 one from the Apache web server.
1044 * Changed to default mode for creating new messages to 0600
1045 (this should have been done a long time ago).
1047 * Changed "flist" to handle searching for multiple sequences
1048 for each folder. Also flist will now correctly split
1049 Unseen-Sequence if it consists of multiple sequences.
1051 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "refile".
1053 * Added new switches `-unlink' and `-nounlink' to "rmm".
1055 * More cleanups of slocal output. Changed adorn() to
1056 send to stdout, instead of stderr (to match rest of
1059 * Merged mbx_create() into mbx_open, so that creating and
1060 opening a nonexistent maildrop is done atomically. This
1061 removes a bad race condition.
1063 * Fixed bug that caused slocal to be unable to save to MMDF
1066 * Added new wrapper function usr_folder() to slocal.c to
1067 handle adding message to folder (currently, it still uses
1068 usr_pipe() to call rcvstore).
1070 * seq_list() checks for empty folder before scanning for
1071 sequence information.
1073 * num_digits() in flist.c and folder.c now returns correct
1074 value for 0. Also added sanity check.
1076 * folder_delmsgs() now correctly decrements internal message
1079 * Don't attempt to read sequence information if folder
1082 * Split seq_read into seq_public and seq_private.
1084 * Small change to sigmsg.awk, since newer versions of gawk
1085 interpret 034 as octal.
1087 * In flist, don't scan for sequence information in empty folder.
1089 * Updated mhn.defaults.sh to output profile entries for mhshow,
1090 mhstore, and mhbuild.
1092 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-access-ftp" to
1093 "nmh-access-ftp". Updated man pages
1095 * Moved the code in InitMultipart to reverse the order of the
1096 parts in a multipart, into its own function "reverse_parts()".
1098 * Changed code in mhbuildsbr.c to store unencoded content
1099 in the c_cefile structure when building.
1101 * Changed code in mhoutsbr.c to look for unencoded content
1102 in the c_cefile structure when outputing message.
1104 * Changed configuration parameter "mhn-cache" and
1105 "mhn-private-cache", to "nmh-cache" and "nmh-private-cache",
1106 since it is used in mhstore, mhlist, and mhshow. Updated man pages
1108 * Change configuration parameter "mhn-storage" to
1109 "nmh-storage", since it is now used in mhstore, mhlist,
1110 and mhshow. Updated man pages
1112 * Add autoconf support for KPOP (kerberized pop).
1114 * Add autoconf support for Hesiod.
1116 * Split routines to output a message given a Content structure
1117 (output_message, output_content, write7Bit, etc..) to a new
1120 * Split output_content(), into output_content() and build_headers().
1122 * Changed copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, to use the linked
1123 list of header fields, rather than reopening the message.
1125 * Added free_header() to mhfree.c to free structures containing
1126 header field information.
1128 * Changed get_content() to use the linked list of header fields
1129 when parsing the various MIME headers (Content-XXX).
1131 * Changed get_content() to store linked list of header field
1132 values when parsing a content.
1134 * Changed mhbuild, mhn, mhlist, mhshow, mhstore, to use the
1135 routines in mhcachesbr.c to handle the content cache.
1137 * Split various funtions (find_cache, find_cache_aux, find_cache_aux2,
1138 cache_content) into new file mhcachesbr.c.
1140 * More calls to sprintf/strcpy (primarily in mhparse.c
1141 and mhbuildsbr.c) converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1143 * When a message is displayed with `mhshow', it is now
1144 removed from the "unseen" sequence.
1146 * Change the default "showmimeproc" to "mhshow".
1148 * Split "mhn -show" off into separate command "mhshow".
1150 * Split "mhn -store" off into separate command "mhstore".
1152 * Split "mhn -list" off into separate command "mhlist".
1154 * Add sanity checks to context_find(), context_replace(),
1155 and context_del(), to abort if context file hasn't been
1158 * Add calls to context_read(), to the beginning of all nmh
1159 commands (instead of being called indirectly by context_find).
1161 * Changes the "substitute" version of vsnprintf/snprintf for
1162 operating systems without native versions, to just call the
1163 native vsprintf(), and ignore the buffer length. This is
1164 faster, but less secure than the previous version that used
1165 temporary files. This should only be a problem for systems
1166 which do not have a native snprintf(), and require `inc' to
1169 * Lots more calls to sprintf/strcpy converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1171 * Changes client() routine to take additional parameter, which is
1172 the buffer length of the parameter "response". Then added
1173 buffer length checks for this parameter.
1175 * Changed getws() to get_fields(), since that is apparently the
1176 name of a wide character version of gets() on some archetitures.
1178 * Lots of sprintf/strcpy calls converted to snprintf/strncpy.
1180 * Change the code in most of the commands that take multiple
1181 message names/sequences/ranges on the command, such that
1182 the msgs array is expanded dynamically. This removes most
1183 of the limits on the length of command lines.
1185 * Add additional parameter to copyip(), to specify the
1186 maximum number of strings that can be copied (security
1189 * Create new function getarguments(), to massage the argument
1190 vector before parsing it (add any arguments from your
1191 profile to the beginning of the argument vector). This
1192 also removed the general limit on the number of command line
1195 1998-07-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1197 * Released nmh-0.27.
1199 * Added a new command "delete", that is available during
1200 a "whatnow" session. It is equivalent to "quit -delete".
1202 * Added another parameter to editfile (in whatnowsbr.c),
1203 that controls whether editfile should remember the last
1204 program that was exec'ed. This way the whatnow command
1205 "mime", will not be re-executed if "edit" is later given
1208 * Changed whatnowsbr.c, so that whatnow doesn't abort if
1209 mhbuild returns an error.
1211 * Added parameter to sendsbr(), so you may specify whether to
1212 rename the draft file.
1214 * Pass delay time to splitmsg() as a parameter, rather than
1215 use a global variable.
1217 * Moved code to rename draft file after sending message from
1218 splitmsg and sendaux, to sendsbr.
1220 * Removed all the code in viamail to split messages and then
1221 mail them. Replaced this with the standard sendsbr.c routines.
1223 * Changed sendsbr(), so that when splitting messages into
1224 messages of type "message/partial", the header fields that
1225 are copied are more compliant with RFC-2046.
1227 * Fixed mhbuild to track temporary files better. They are
1228 now correctly removed when mhbuild aborts.
1230 * Created a new man page for "sendfiles". The information
1231 about "mhn -viamail" in the "mhn" man page was moved to
1234 * Changed the name of the "viamail" shell script to
1235 "sendfiles". Modified "sendfiles" to use the new
1238 * Moved the functionality for "mhn -viamail" out of mhn,
1239 and into a separate executable called "viamail".
1241 * When storing MIME contents to a folder using mhn -store,
1242 they are now accumulated in a temporary file, and then added
1243 to the folder using folder_addmsg().
1245 * Moved code to save content to a folder from store_content
1246 to new function output_content_folder.
1248 * Moved code to save content to file from store_content to
1249 new function output_content_file.
1251 * Moved code to parse storage format string from store_content
1252 to new function parse_format_string.
1254 * Fix copy_some_headers() in mhstoresbr.c, so that the
1255 correct header fields in the first enclosing message/partial
1256 will be copied (according to RFC2046), when using mhn -store
1257 to reassemble messages of type message/partial.
1259 * Fixed bug to openFTP() in mhparse.c, that caused the
1260 tmp file to not be removed, when transferring a
1261 message/external file from ftp.
1263 * Moved the code in mhparse.c to process -auto switch (scan
1264 contents for the attribute "name"), to a new function
1265 "get_storeproc" in mhstoresbr.c.
1267 * Moved routines to free data structures related to MIME
1268 content from mhparse.c and mhbuildsbr.c, to new file
1271 * Moved code to show/display MIME content into new
1274 * Moved code to store MIME content from into
1275 new file mhstoresbr.c
1277 * Moved code to parse MIME content into new
1280 * Moved code to list information about MIME content
1281 into new file mhlistsbr.c.
1283 * Move part_ok(), type_ok(), content_error(), flush_errors(),
1284 and set_endian() to new file mhmisc.c.
1286 * Start to isolate the code to show, list, and store MIME
1287 messages. One side effect is that only one flag (-show,
1288 -list, or -store) can be used at a time now.
1290 * mhn -store -auto wasn't storing file in correct directory.
1292 * Removed a few dead variables from sbr/ruserpass.c
1294 * move code for creating tmp files, and renaming the
1295 the composition draft in mhbuild, from build_mime()
1298 * remove left-over code in mhbuild.c, mhbuildsbr.c, for
1299 the -[no]auto switch (which isn't used in mhbuild).
1301 * split mhn.c into mhn.c and mhnsbr.c (name later changed
1304 * split mhbuild.c into mhbuild.c and mhbuildsbr.c.
1306 1998-05-25 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1308 * Released nmh-0.26.
1310 * Added (unlisted) options [no]dashstuffing to send, post,
1311 and whatnow to determine whether to do RFC934 quoting
1312 (dashstuffing) for encapsulated BCC messages. The default
1313 is still the same (dashstuffing).
1315 * Changed the undocumented feature "nodashmunging" in forw
1316 and mhl, into the documented feature "nodashstuffing". The
1317 default for forw, is still "dashstuffing" for backward
1318 compatibility, although I don't believe that bursting
1319 RFC934 digests is very common anymore.
1321 * Added an option to define REALLYDUMB in the default config.h.
1322 But it is not on by default.
1324 * moved creation of config file mts.conf from zotnet/mts
1325 to etc. This simplified the Makefile in zotnet/mts.
1327 * simplified directory support/general to etc.
1329 * removed unneeded directory support/bboards.
1331 * split getusername() into getusername() and getuserinfo().
1333 * Changed getusr() routine to getusername().
1335 * Slight cleanup in folder_pack.c on code that records the new
1336 number of the "cur" message when packing.
1338 1998-05-08 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1340 * Released nmh-0.25.
1342 * Change install process, so that hard linking the correct mts
1343 library to libmts.a, is not necessary. The final link process
1344 uses the original name of the library.
1346 * Fixed bug in flist.c and folder.c, so that symbolic links which
1347 point to directories, will not decrement the number of directory
1350 * Split the function list_content (in mhn.c and mhbuild.c) into
1351 list_content and list_debug.
1353 * Don't pack (folder -pack) an empty folder.
1355 * Exit gracefully in flist.c, if no sequence is specified,
1356 and no "Unseen-Sequence" is given in nmh profile.
1358 1998-02-27 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1360 * Released nmh-0.24.
1362 * Small clarification to the man page for `ali'.
1364 * Fix bug in inc.c so that if both flags `-file' and `-truncate'
1365 are given, that order doesn't matter.
1367 * Fix bug in seq_list.c when realloc'ing for
1368 large sequence line.
1370 1998-02-23 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1372 * Released nmh-0.23.
1374 * Add new section on "Transfer Encodings" to man page for mhbuild.
1376 * In mhbuild.c, split compose_content into compose_content
1377 (parse and execute composition string), and scan_content (scan
1378 content, decided transfer encoding, check for clash with boundary
1379 string). I did a good amount of rearranging of this code.
1381 * Moved definitions for data structures for parsing MIME
1382 messages from mhn.c and mhbuild.c to a new include
1385 * Small amount of rearranging in sendsbr.c
1387 * Small changes to MAIL.FILTERING file.
1389 * Add the file MAIL.FILTERING to nmh distribution.
1391 * Add line to packf so that if message begins with
1392 "X-Envelope-From:" field, it is converted to "From ".
1394 * Fix packf to add "From " line to beginning of message,
1395 even if Return-Path doesn't exist.
1397 * Add note to MACHINES file that on Linux, configure
1398 doesn't find the functions sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1400 * Fix configuration for machines that don't have (or find)
1401 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp.
1403 1998-02-11 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1405 * Released nmh-0.22.
1407 * Add a configure check for sigsetjmp. Add some conditional
1408 #define's in h/signals.h in case it's not found.
1410 * Added additional notes about -auto switch in mhn man page.
1412 * Added note about MM_CHARSET environment variable to
1413 mh-profile(5) man page.
1415 * Fix signal problem in mhn.c (change setjmp/longjmp to
1416 sigsetjmp/siglongjmp).
1418 1998-02-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1420 * Released nmh-0.22-pre1.
1422 * Changed the first line in mhl.format from
1423 " -- using template mhl.format -- " to a blank line.
1425 * Added note about automimeproc to mh-profile man page.
1427 * Reorganize the main entry point for parsing a MIME message
1428 or file in mhn. Add new function parse_file() as new main
1429 entry point for parsing MIME files.
1431 * Add note to mhn man page, that "mhn -file -" will accept the
1432 source message on the standard input.
1434 * Changed a sanity check in folder_realloc that was too strict.
1436 * -norfc934mode is now the default for mhbuild,
1437 rather than -rfc934mode.
1439 * Fix mhbuild, so that Content-Description and RFC-822 comments
1440 from #forw directive will be correctly included if there is
1443 * Change mhn to correctly default parts of multipart/digest to
1444 message/rfc822 (leftover code from rfc934mode was removed).
1446 * Restore HP specific code to zotnet/tws/lexstring.c. Apparently
1449 1998-02-06 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1451 * Released nmh-0.21.
1453 * If the file given to mhbuild is "-", then accept the draft on
1454 standard input, and output the MIME message to standard output.
1456 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what transfer
1459 * Cleaned up code in mhbuild.c that decides what character set
1460 to use for text contents.
1462 * Removed old hpux specific code from zotnet/tws/lexstring.c
1464 1998-02-02 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1466 * Released nmh-0.21-pre2.
1468 * Added the "decode" variable to mhl.format and mhl.header.
1470 * Added new variable "decode" to mhlsbr.c to decode text in
1471 header fields as per RFC-2047.
1473 * Make sure that when decoding RFC-2047 header fields, that any
1474 spaces at the ends of the encoded text are not ignored, but the
1475 spaces between encoded word are.
1477 * Removed #ifdef's for MIME. MIME support is always compiled in.
1479 * scan/inc will now decode both Subject and From lines as
1480 RFC-2047 encoded header fields.
1482 * Added new function write_charset_8bit() to sbr. It returns
1483 the character set to use for 8bit text in composition draft.
1484 Changed mhbuild to use this function.
1486 * Split mhn man page into man pages for mhn and mhbuild.
1488 * mhn -show will only now only use default method for content
1489 of type plain, if it is NOT a part of a multipart/alternative.
1491 * Split mhn -build into mhbuild. Did some code cleanup.
1493 * Added support for %(decode) to fmtdump.c.
1495 * check_charset() now accepts US-ASCII as a subset of any
1496 ISO-8859-X character set.
1498 * Changed the default "showproc" to mhl, instead of the
1501 * When reading file into mhn composition file, only need read
1502 permissions, not write permissions.
1504 * Added own version of strcasecmp to distribution, since
1505 nmh calls it frequently with NULL pointers (ughh).
1507 * Replaced uleq.c with strcasecmp. Removed uleq.c from
1510 1998-01-22 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1512 * Released nmh-0.21-pre1.
1514 * If a message is missing charset parameter to text/plain, show
1515 will assume US-ASCII, rather than just calling showmimeproc.
1517 * Change show.c and mshcmds.c to use check_charset to see if text
1518 message contains valid character set.
1520 * Added new scan format file "scan.nomime" to support/general
1521 that doesn't do any RFC-2047 decoding.
1523 * Modified all the scan format files in support/general to do
1524 RFC-2047 decoding of Subject field.
1526 * Did more work on sbr/fmt_rfc2047.c, so that it will correctly
1527 ignore whitespace between two valid encoded words, but not
1528 between an encoded word and normal text.
1530 * Created new file sbr/check_charset.c. Moved code from
1531 fmt_rfc2047.c to check for valid character set to this file.
1533 * Added format escape %(decode) to decode contents of "str" register
1534 as a RFC-2047 header field.
1536 * The command install-mh now recognizes the switches -version
1539 * Added a new argument to print_help.c to decide whether to
1540 print profile entries (needed for install-mh to prevent weird
1543 * Changed folder_read.c and folder_realloc.c so that mp->lowoff
1544 is initialize to max (mp->lowmsg, 1) rather than always 1.
1546 * Changed macros for sequence/attribute manipulation so that
1547 message status array doesn't need to always start at 1.
1549 * Small cleanups in folder_realloc().
1551 1998-01-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1553 * Released nmh-0.20.
1555 * Added configure option --with-pager=PAGER.
1557 * Added configure option --with-editor=EDITOR.
1559 * Changed the default format file for mhl (mhl.format) to
1560 also ignore (not display) the header fields Content-Type,
1561 Content-Transfer-Encoding, and Content-ID
1563 * Fixed core dump in addrsbr.c when using %(proper) format function
1564 and the To: line was missing.
1566 * Added the file ZSH.COMPLETION to the distribution.
1568 1998-01-04 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1570 * Released nmh-0.20-pre2.
1572 * Added new switch -snoop to both `msgchk' and `inc', so you can
1573 watch the POP transaction.
1575 * Changed "replgroupcomps" to check for Mail-Followup-To header
1576 first, and use it if available.
1578 * Changed "replcomps" to check for Mail-Reply-To header
1579 first, and use it if available.
1581 1998-01-03 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1583 * Released nmh-0.20-pre1.
1585 * Changed seq_list.c to dynamically enlarge the buffer for
1586 collecting the message ranges in a long sequence line.
1587 This should remove the last hard limit on the size of a
1590 * Changed seq_read.c so that can read long sequence lines.
1591 It will use multiple calls to m_getfld() when m_getfld()
1592 returns the state FLDPLUS.
1594 * Changed brkstring.c to dynamically add more space for pointers
1595 if necessary. This is needed when splitting up large sequence
1598 * Did some small cleanups in seq_save.c.
1600 * Added new switches `-[no]unseen' to rcvstore, to control
1601 whether new messages are added to Unseen-Sequence.
1603 * Moved locking routines (zotnet/mts/lock.c) to sbr/lock_file.c
1605 * Changed the internal UNSEEN flag to SELECT_UNSEEN which is
1606 more appropriate. Changed the MHPATH flag to ALLOW_NEW.
1608 * Changed "replcomps" to not include CC and TO lines so that
1609 that reply message is only directed at the author of the
1610 message to which you are replying.
1612 * Added new switch `-group' to command repl, which causes repl
1613 to use new forms file "replgroupcomps". This is intended for
1614 making group replies.
1616 * Removed #ifdef for ATHENA.
1618 1997-12-28 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1620 * Released nmh-0.19.
1622 * Fix repl,forw so that switch `-form file' will not abort
1623 as ambiguious (silly mistake on my part).
1625 * Cleaned up the mhn man page. Added info about a few escapes
1626 for the formatting/display strings that were not documented
1627 (%%, %t). Moved the BNF grammar for the mime composition file,
1628 to the end of the man page.
1630 * Added the options -[no]format to the command repl. The
1631 switch `-format' will filter the message to which you are
1632 replying with the standard message filter "mhl.reply", which
1633 is now included in the distribution. The `-noformat' option
1634 will negate the use of -format or -filter and not include
1635 the message to which you are replying in the draft.
1637 * Did some cleaning and reorganization on many of the man
1640 * Added debugging switch `-debug' to mhparam, which displays
1641 the values of all `procs' (and some other misc configuration
1642 info) that nmh keeps in global variables.
1644 * When using `refile -preserve', if a conflict occurs, then use
1645 the next available number above the message number you wish
1648 * In forw.c, split the code for creating MIME style forwarding
1649 out of copy_draft, and into copy_mime_draft.
1651 * Move routines in mark.c to print sequences, into new
1652 file sbr/seq_print.c
1654 * flist will now update the current folder.
1656 * Added the switches -[no]fast to flist, to replace
1657 -[no]total. The previous switches are still accepted
1658 but now undocumented.
1660 * More reorganization in flist of the code for
1663 * The command "flist +foo -all" will now scan the folder
1664 "foo" and all its 1st level children.
1666 * Add missing include file <h/mh.h> to sbr/snprintf.c
1668 * Fix alarm bug in rcvtty, so that when it calls external
1669 process, the alarm is never longer than 30 minutes.
1671 1997-12-17 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1673 * Released nmh-0.18.
1675 * Fixed bug in mark, so that "mark -list -seq foo" will
1676 correctly indicate if "foo" is a private sequence. I found
1677 this bug mentioned in Jerry Peek's book.
1679 * Simplified the code in seq_setcur(), since seq_addmsg() now
1680 retains the public/private status of sequences.
1682 * Changed sequence handling so that if the switches -public
1683 or -nopublic, are not specified for the commands mark, pick,
1684 or rcvstore, then existing sequences will retain their
1685 previous public/private status.
1687 * mhparam now handles the mh-sequences profile entry
1690 * flist -all will now also check readonly folders (for
1693 * Improve the leaf optimization for folder command.
1694 It will now track the number of directories in a folder,
1695 and stop stat'ing files once it has hit all the subfolders.
1697 * Renamed m_getfolder to getfolder. Changed getfolder to
1698 take option to determine whether it should get current
1699 folder, or just default folder (Inbox). Changed rcvstore,
1700 inc, and rmf to use the new getfolder.
1702 * flist now indicates if a sequence is private.
1704 * Change WUNTRACED to 0, in pidwait.c, so that commands will
1705 wait for stopped processes.
1707 * conflict will dynamically allocate space for group names,
1708 so it can now handle system with more than 100 groups.
1710 1997-12-09 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1712 * Released nmh-0.18-pre4.
1714 * Check if we have enough message status space, before we
1715 call folder_realloc() in burst, mhpath, and m_draft().
1717 * mhn will now correctly identify a formatting string of "-"
1718 for the option -store, and send content to stdout.
1720 * Change the way that memory for message status is
1721 allocated. It is dynamcially allocated separately from
1722 the folder/message structure. This required changing
1723 folder_read.c, folder_realloc.c, folder_free.c.
1725 * Removed all the MTR code (experimental code for message
1728 * Renamed m_readfolder.c to folder_read.c and simplified
1731 * Renamed m_freefolder.c to folder_free.c.
1733 * Add function trim() to slocal.c to pretty print
1734 the debugging output.
1736 * Changed the name of m_packfolder() to folder_pack().
1737 Changed the name of m_remsg() to folder_realloc().
1739 Wed Dec 3 23:33:38 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1741 * Released nmh-0.18-pre3.
1743 * Changed installation to add `flists' which is hard linked
1744 to `flist'. This is a equivalent to `flist -all'.
1746 * For flist, -showzero is on by default.
1748 * Major changes to flist. Default is now for flist to search
1749 current folder. The switch `-all' is now used to specify
1750 searching all top level folders. The new switch `-showzero'
1751 is used to print out folders that don't contain any messages
1752 in the given sequence.
1754 * Split BuildFolderList in flist.c into 2 functions
1755 (BuildFolderList, BuildFolderListR). Changed these functions
1756 so that flist now does better leaf optimization, and will stop
1757 stat'ing directory entries when it knows it has hit all the
1758 subdirectories of a given directory.
1760 * Reorganized code in folder.c, so that all relevant folders
1761 are scanned first and information recorded. Then all the
1762 folder summaries at printed out at one time.
1764 * Made the options of folder(s) more orthogonal. Now
1765 "folder -all -noheader -nototal" will do the right thing.
1767 * Added `-noall' switch to folder, for completeness.
1769 * Changed the default mode for creation of new folders
1772 * Slightly changed the format for flist. It now indicates
1773 if a folder is current. Also the width of the various
1774 fields are now calculated at runtime.
1776 * Changed the format for folder(s). Folder names
1777 are now left justified. The width of the various fields
1778 are calculated at runtime.
1780 Sun Nov 30 19:14:53 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1782 * Released nmh-0.18-pre2.
1784 * Add paragraph to man page for install-mh and to INSTALL file
1785 about checking for global mh.profile.
1787 * Renamed m_find() to context_find().
1788 Renamed m_replace() to context_replace().
1789 Renamed m_delete() to context_del().
1790 Renamed m_update() to context_save().
1791 Renamed m_getdefs() to context_read().
1792 Renamed m_foil() to context_foil().
1794 * Change rcvstore to use routine folder_addmsg(), instead of
1795 adding message to folder itself.
1797 * Changed refile, so that if the switch -preserve is used,
1798 and a conflict occurs for a particular folder, then folder_addmsg()
1799 will just use next highest available number for that folder,
1802 * Make folder_addmsg() more robust. It will make repeated
1803 attempts to link file into folder if link returns with
1806 * Fix bug, so that that if forking sendmail, HELO will be sent
1807 unless clientname: option is defined but empty (so now it
1808 is the same as the direct smtp code).
1810 * Changed sprintb to snprintb (now we pass the buffer length
1811 to new routine). Changed code to use new function.
1813 * Added snprintf to sbr. Added configure check to build it
1814 if you don't have a native version (but haven't changed much
1815 code to use it yet).
1817 Thu Nov 13 18:42:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1819 * Released nmh-0.18-pre1.
1821 * Fixed alarm bug in slocal, so that alarm is never
1822 called with a value larger than 30 mintues.
1824 * Fixed race condition in rmm and refile, so that
1825 context is updated before external rmmproc is called.
1827 * Removed all the OVERHEAD code.
1829 * Move code to add message to folder from refile.c
1832 Fri Jul 25 19:39:29 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1834 * Did some rearranging of the internals of inc.c.
1836 * Make -inplace the default for anno, forw, dist, and repl.
1838 * Changed --enable-smtp to --with-mts={smtp,sendmail}
1840 * Created new directory mts/sendmail for direct sendmail
1841 interface (although it currently still uses SMTP).

1845 * Removed all the TTYD (terminal access daemon) code
1847 * Removed all the MF (uucp filtering) code.
1849 * Removed all the code for BERK.
1851 * Removed all the code for stand-alone delivery (MHMTS).
1853 * Split the file mts/sendmail/smail.c into sendmail.c and
1854 smtp.c. Changed the name of the directory to mts/smtp.
1856 * Changed autoconf to use @sysconfdir@ for location of
1857 configuration files.
1859 * Changed #define in mhn.c from FTP to BUILTIN_FTP.
1861 Mon Jul 21 03:22:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

1865 * MAKEDEFS weren't passed down to recursive makes correctly.
1867 * slocal.c now checks for UTMP_FILE and _PATH_UTMP instead
1868 of hard-coding "/etc/utmp".
1870 * rcvtty.c check for _PATH_UTMP if UTMP_FILE is not
1873 * Remove configure checks for ulong and ushort. Changed
1874 code to just use unsigned {short, long}.
1876 * Change addmsg function in refile.c to return new
1877 number of refiled message.
1879 * Added check in get_returnpath for empty unixbuf.
1881 * Cleanup of sbr/pidstatus to use more POSIX macros
1882 for return value of wait().
1884 * Change configure to also check /bin for "more".
1886 Sat Jul 12 00:02:23 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1888 * Released nmh-0.16.
1890 Mon Jun 23 20:13:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1892 * Added automimeproc, which should replace automhnproc.
1894 * multipart messages will no longer abort for messages
1895 of type 8bit or binary (although we still can't really
1896 deal with binary messages, yet).
1898 * Fix double free of c_storage. From John MacMillan.
1900 * mhn now treats unknown subtypes of "text" as text/plain.
1902 * mhn changed so that specifying mhn-show-multipart, or
1903 mhn-show-multipart/{mixed, alternate, etc...) will override
1904 the use of the internal method for displaying these types.
1905 Previously mhn would always use the internal method for subtypes
1906 mixed, alternate, digest, and parallel (even if an alternate
1907 method was specified in mhn.defaults).
1909 * mhn show treats unknown subtypes of multipart, as type
1910 multipart/mixed (as specified RFC2046).
1912 * mhn checks for the parameter "name" rather than "x-name".
1913 From MH-6.8.4 patch.
1915 * Fix double free of ctinfo in user_content when using
1916 #forw with single message. From John MacMillan (and
1919 * Changed -mhnproc switch for show, to -showmimeproc.
1921 * Changed profile entry "mhnproc" to "showmimeproc".
1923 * Added "mime" option to "whatnow", which calls the program
1924 "buildmimeproc" (default is mhn -build) to process MIME
1927 * Added -build switch to mhn, to process MIME composition
1930 * Did some reorganizing of mhn.c.
1932 * Changed casting in mts/sendmail/smail.c from (char) to
1933 (signed char) so SMTP reply codes work correctly for machines
1934 which used unsigned chars by default.
1936 Sat Jun 21 01:21:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1938 * Released nmh-0.15.
1940 * Added new form "scan.unseen" to distribution. It marks messages

1945 * Fix sign extension bugs in fmt_scan.c.
1947 * Fix m_atoi.c so that strings ending in non-digit characters
1950 * Split code in burst.c so that finding delimiters of digested
1951 messages and bursting a message into multiple messages are
1952 two separate functions (find_delim and burst).
1954 * Add workaround fo AC_PATH_PROG in configure.in, so
1955 that BSD4.4 machines can find sendmail, vi, more.
1957 * Added "-width" option to rcvtty.
1959 * Change a few variable names in zotnet/mts/client.c since
1960 they conflict with defines on AIX.
1962 * Makefile in zotnet/tws assumes lexing of dtimep.lex was
1963 unsuccessful if resulting file is less than 500 lines long
1964 (rather than 10, which was previous value), since AIX
1965 sed gives mangled file of about 200 lines.
1967 * Extract code in rcvstore.c to link message into folder,
1968 and put in own subroutine.
1970 * Extract code in refile.c to link message into folder,
1971 and put in own subroutine.
1973 * Moved code to remove messages from folder into own
1974 routine "folder_delmsgs" in sbr. Changed rmm.c and
1975 refile.c to use new routine.
1977 Fri May 16 06:09:31 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
1979 * Renamed m_seqok to seq_nameok.
1981 * Changed m_setunseen, msh, mshcmds, flist, and scan to use
1984 * Changed m_seqflag to return the number of a sequence rather
1985 than its bit flag. Changed its name to seq_getnum and renamed
1986 file to sbr/seq_getnum.c.
1988 * Removed function m_seqnew and file sbr/m_seqnew.c since it is
1991 * Added zero switch to m_seqadd function to zero out bits before
1992 adding message to sequence.
1994 * Renamed function m_setvis to m_setunseen, and renamed
1995 corresponding file in sbr.
1997 * Renamed function m_setseq to m_setprev, and renamed corresponding
2000 * Changed mark.c and pick.c to use m_seqaddsel and m_seqdelsel.
2002 * Added new function m_seqdelsel to m_seqdel.c, which deletes
2003 all selected messages from a sequence.
2005 * Added new function m_seqaddsel to m_seqadd.c, which adds all
2006 selected messages to a sequence.
2008 * Split sbr/m_seqnew.c into m_seqadd.c, m_seqdel.c, m_seqnew.c,
2011 Thu May 15 00:53:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2013 * Renamed function pack_folder to m_packfolder, and moved it
2014 from uip/folder.c into its own file sbr/m_packfolder.c
2016 Wed May 14 23:38:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2018 * Changed function m_gmsg to m_readfolder. Renamed file

2037 `procs' better. Deprecated `-noshowproc' option and NOMHNPROC
2038 environment variable.
2040 * Added new man page `mh-draft' which documents the
2041 draft folder facility in nmh.
2043 * Renamed fmtsbr.h to fmt_scan.h. Renamed fmtcompile.h

2055 * Released nmh-0.13.
2057 * Changed mhpath so it doesn't abort if a message sequence
2058 such as "mhpath all" expands to more than 1000 messages.
2059 Also mhpath now dynamically reallocated space for message
2060 names (The number of command line arguments is still limited
2063 * Did some general restructuring of the code in folder.c
2064 that checks for folder information, and prints it.
2066 Thu Apr 24 01:04:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2068 * Changed `folder' to reallocate space for folder names if
2069 necessary. So `folders' can now handle more than 300 folders.
2071 Tue Apr 22 14:01:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2073 * Change configure to use a compile check to see if the tm struct
2074 has tm_gmtoff, rather than using egrep.

2090 mp->attrstats with macros.
2092 * If system doesn't have SIGEMT (like Linux), then use SIGTERM
2095 * Change fstat to stat in m_gmsg.c since Linux wants
2098 * Merge Linux patch sent in by Michel Oosterhof (original
2099 patch from bsa@kf8nh.wariat.org).
2101 * Document an undocumented MH feature. mhn -form mhl.null
2102 will suppress the display of the message header.
2104 * mhparam will now return "mhparam etcdir".
2106 * Add catproc to /config/config.c and use that in show.c
2107 and mshcmds.c, rather than hard coding in /bin/cat.
2109 * Add mhnproc to the list of `procs' in mh-profile.man.
2111 * Add configure test for lorder and tsort commands.
2113 * Commented out the padding in the `msgs` struct in h/mh.h
2115 * Change m_gmsg.c to allocate elements to the `info' array by
2116 500 elements at a time (rather than MAXFOLDERS / 5).
2118 * Add note to man page for mhmail that zero length messages are
2119 not sent. Need to use -body "" to send empty messages.
2121 * zotnet/mts/mts.c : compare character with '\0', not NULL.
2123 * sbr/getcpy.c : assign '\0' to character, not NULL.
2125 * add m_fmsg to most programs in uip so that they explicitly free
2126 folder/message structure when done with folder.
2128 * uip/slocal.c : cleanup processing of sender. Make sure it is
2129 defined even if message is missing "From " line.
2131 Mon Mar 31 03:37:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2133 * Released nmh-0.10.
2135 Sun Mar 30 21:46:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>

2140 Thu Mar 20 03:21:24 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2142 * Reversed previous decision to retain "From " lines in slocal.
2143 The "From " line is now removed from all messages.
2145 * inc now saves the date from the "From " envelope in the
2146 Delivery-Date header for all messages.
2148 * sbr/m_getfld.c: Clean up processing of Return-Path and
2149 Delivery-Date from the "From " envelope.
2151 Mon Mar 17 19:03:36 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2153 * client.c: cast iaddr to int before comparing return value
2154 of inet_addr with NOTOK.
2156 Tue Mar 11 04:38:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2158 * Grep test for signal names was failing on some OS'es because
2159 of missing tabs in regex.
2161 Sat Mar 8 01:58:22 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2163 * Released nmh-0.09.
2165 * Move config files and format files to *.old before installing.
2167 * Add configure check for killpg.

2176 * Added `-mime' and `-nomime' options to `repl'.
2179 Tue Mar 4 03:10:37 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2181 * ruserpass.c : removed conflicting prototypes.
2183 * rcvtty.c : Fixed rcvtty to obey terminal permissions granted
2184 by `mesg' command. Previously only worked on BSD machines.
2186 Mon Mar 3 00:18:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2188 * rcvtty.c : Changed to use #define UTMP_FILE (if exists) rather
2189 than hard coded "/etc/utmp".
2191 * Released nmh-0.08.
2193 * Changed slocal to lock .maildelivery (or file given by -maildelivery)
2194 when accessing ndbm/db file for duplicate suppression, instead of
2195 locking database itself.
2197 Thu Feb 27 05:28:09 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2199 * Added slocal action `mmdf' to deliver to a file in mmdf format.
2201 * Changed the slocal actions `file' and `>' to always deliver in
2202 mbox (uucp) format rather than be determined by RPATHS config
2205 * Changed the slocal action `mbox' to deliver in mbox (uucp) format
2206 rather than mmdf format.
2208 * slocal now adds Delivery-Date field to all messages (previously it
2209 only added it to messages when delivering them to a file). The
2210 "From " line is now retained on all messages if compiling with
2211 RPATHS, rather than being discarded.
2213 * rcvpack no longer adds the Delivery-Date field to messages.
2215 Sun Feb 23 22:03:54 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2217 * Removed the script packmbox, since it's functionality has been
2220 * Changed packf so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2221 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2222 packf so you can choose the preferred format.
2224 * Changed rcvpack so that it uses mbox (uucp) format by default
2225 rather than mmdf format. Added options -mbox and -mmdf to
2226 rcvpack so you can choose the preferred format.
2228 Tue Feb 18 00:01:05 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2230 * Changed nmh to use dot locking by default (although you
2231 can still easily change this in config.h).
2233 * Simplified locking code. Removed code allowing setting of
2234 locking type in mts.conf. Now the locking type and locking
2235 directory (if any) can only be set at compile time.
2237 Fri Feb 14 02:49:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2239 * Prefer getting timezone information from tm->gmtoff rather
2240 than tzset and external timezone variable.
2242 Thu Feb 13 00:35:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2244 * Fixed typo in ruserpass.c in the variable toktabs.
2246 * When ruserpass was added to LIBOBJS, it was missing
2249 * Released nmh-0.07.
2251 Tue Feb 11 01:29:47 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2253 * Add check to configure, so that if ruserpass, or _ruserpass
2254 is not found, build version of ruserpass in sbr.
2256 * Added define's to discard.c, m_getfld.c, and scansbr.c so
2257 the code that manipulates internals of stdio, will build
2260 * Added #define to control whether to compile the simple
2261 built-in FTP client in mhn.
2263 * Added configure check for ushort and ulong. Change code
2264 to use ushort/ulong rather than u_short/u_long.
2266 * A couple of small cleanups in locking code.
2268 * Added configure check for gmtoff element in struct tm.
2270 * Added configure check for tzset.
2272 Fri Feb 7 03:01:57 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2274 * Released nmh-0.06.
2276 * Removed code for machines that don't have socket
2277 interface (how could they get mail anyway?).
2279 * Removed code for BSD41 machines. I don't think there are
2280 many such machines around anymore.
2282 * Add configure check for function uname, and prefer it
2283 over gethostname. General cleanup of zotnet/mts/mts.c.
2285 * Change all `lseek' calls to use POSIX symbolic constants
2286 SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END.
2288 Thu Feb 6 01:16:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2290 * Check lex generated file in zotnet/tws and use
2291 pre-generated version if necessary.
2293 * Released nmh-0.05.
2295 * Change to use reliable signals on all platforms that have
2296 sigaction. Change so that interrupted system calls are
2297 restarted for all signals except SIGALRM. This fixes alarm
2298 handling code in smail.c for BSD based systems.
2300 * Added lorder and tsort commands so that created libs can
2301 be linked in one pass.
2303 Tue Feb 4 01:33:00 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2305 * Changed pidwait so that while it is waiting for a child,
2306 it should block signals rather than ignore them.
2308 Mon Feb 3 21:05:30 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2310 * Add checks to configure for dbm_open and -lndbm.
2312 Thu Jan 30 05:15:42 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2314 * folder -pop and folder -push were freeing some memory too
2315 quickly, which caused the entry popped from the stack to not
2316 become the current folder.
2318 Wed Jan 29 01:28:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2320 * Released nmh-0.04.
2322 * Define ospeed and PC in termsbr.c is OS doesn't have
2325 Sun Jan 26 20:25:10 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2327 * editfile will create a symbolic link to the altmsg if it
2328 can't make a link, on any machine supporting lstat. Formerly
2329 this would happen only on BSD42 based machines.
2331 Sat Jan 25 22:54:26 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2333 * traverse (in popsbr.c) wasn't calling va_start before using
2334 variable argument list. Fixes core dump in inc when using POP.
2336 Fri Jan 24 03:27:59 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2338 * The variable pass in remotemail needed to be set to
2339 NULL. (From MH-6.8.4 diff). Fixes core dump of msgchk when
2342 * inc and msgchk were using -rpop by default when configured
2343 with POP support. Default is now -norpop.
2345 Thu Jan 23 02:01:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2347 * By default, post will now give the SMTP HELO command with
2348 the local hostname. If you specify a hostname with the
2349 clientname: option in mts.conf file, post will give the
2350 HELO command with that name instead. If the argument to the
2351 clientname: option is empty, no HELO command is given.
2352 (From the MH-6.8.4 diff)
2354 Wed Jan 22 01:55:45 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2356 * When using `-help' for a command, it will also print its
2357 profile compents from .mh_profile. (From MH-6.8.4 diff)
2359 * "slocal -file" will now correctly takes its input from
2360 a file (currently need to specify full path).
2362 Sun Jan 19 20:37:21 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2364 * "slocal -debug" will now issue a warning if a non-blank
2365 line in the .maildelivery file has less than 5 fields.
2367 Sat Jan 18 02:26:41 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2369 * Changed slocal so that code for duplicate suppression
2370 (MH config was MSGID) is always built. Added the options
2371 -[no]suppressdup to slocal to turn this on/off.
2373 Thu Jan 16 00:26:34 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2375 * Released nmh-0.03.
2377 * Fixed problem where mark would core dump if no
2378 .mh_sequence file existed.
2380 * Fixed problem where slocal would core dump if -debug
2381 option was given, and certain headers were missing.
2383 * Added patch to slocal to add `folder' (+) action, which
2384 is shorthand for piping message to rcvstore. Updated
2387 Wed Jan 15 21:30:17 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2389 * Changed flist option -unseen to -[no]all. Cleaned up
2392 Fri Jan 10 20:36:33 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2394 * Fixed flist. Changed the profile component `Folder-Order'
2395 to `Flist-Order. Added option `-sequence' to flist, so
2396 you can specify the name of the sequence to search for.
2398 Thu Jan 9 00:20:48 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2400 * A few minor portability cleanups. Changed to use PATH_MAX
2401 rather than MAXPATHLEN. Don't assume ospeed variable exists
2402 in termsbr.c. Removed some conflicting prototypes.
2404 Wed Jan 8 11:05:02 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2406 * Add configure test to check if tgetent will accept NULL
2407 and allocate its own buffer. Borrowed from zsh.
2409 * Changed libpath to etcpath.
2411 Mon Jan 6 04:15:35 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2413 * Cleaned up source code and Makefiles, so that if your `make'
2414 supports the VPATH option, you can build nmh in a different
2415 directory from where the source code is located.
2417 Fri Jan 3 05:05:18 1997 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2419 * Released nmh-0.02.

2426 Tue Dec 31 03:07:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2428 * Changed code to use strerror, rather than using sys_errlist
2429 and sys_nerr directly.

2433 * -compat switch from install-mh removed.
2435 * Changed the default POP port from "pop" to "pop3".
2437 Sat Dec 28 13:25:05 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2439 * Changed mhn_defaults to mhn.defaults. Changed create_mhn_defaults
2440 (again) to mhn.defaults.sh. Changed find_program (again) to
2441 mhn.find.sh. mhn.defaults.sh now takes the search path
2442 as an argument. Default search path is now specified in Makefile
2443 rather than in script.
2445 Fri Dec 27 16:34:01 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2447 * Changed mtstailor file to mts.conf. Updated man pages.
2449 * Changed si_value to si_val in mhn.c, since it conflicts with
2450 macro defined on Solaris.
2452 Thu Dec 26 02:50:15 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2454 * Added --enable-nmh-mhe (and --disable-nmh-mhe) to enable/disable
2455 support for Emacs front-end mhe. It is on by default.
2457 * Added the following configure options: --enable-nmh-pop to
2458 enable client side pop support, --enable-nmh-smtp to enable
2459 SMTP support. Client-side pop support now compiles. Man
2460 pages for inc, msgchk, mh-chart now correctly added pop
2463 Tue Dec 24 14:33:20 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2465 * Added configure test for bug in C libraries where linker
2466 can't find ruserpass, but can find _ruserpass.
2468 * Fixed configure test so that termcap variable ospeed is
2471 Mon Dec 23 19:40:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2473 * Source files converted to ANSI C.
2475 * md5 now compiled separately rather than being included

2480 * Collected the error routines adios, advise, admonish, and advertise
2481 into one file (error.c), and did some rearranging of the code.
2483 Thu Dec 19 19:05:29 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2485 * Added awk script sigmsg.awk (originally written by
2486 Geoff Wing <mason@werple.apana.org.au> for zsh) to
2487 automatically generate signal messages for pidstatus.c.
2488 Added files sbr/signals.c, h/signals.h. Code now uses
2489 sigprocmask to block signals (if available). Code now uses
2490 signal blocking on non-BSD machines.
2492 Wed Dec 18 01:55:17 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2494 * Add configure check for ATTVIBUG. From Soren's mh autoconf work.
2496 * Released nmh-0.01.
2498 * Added configure code to check for type of signals functions
2499 you have (POSIX or BSD style signals). Added function
2500 SIGPROCMASK to simulate sigprocmask on machines that don't
2503 Fri Dec 13 19:40:48 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2505 * Added -version switch to all commands. Also added to
2508 Mon Dec 9 16:36:54 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2510 * Renamed uip/trmsbr.c to termsbr.c and changed it to use
2511 POSIX termios.h style functions if present.
2513 Tue Dec 3 16:18:39 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2515 * Changed support/general/bootmhn.sh to output new mhn_defaults
2516 file to standard output by default (makes it easier for testing).
2517 Changed name of script to create_mhn_defaults. Changed bootmhn.findit
2518 script to find_program.
2520 Sun Dec 1 10:00:00 1996 Richard Coleman <coleman@math.gatech.edu>
2522 * Added patch to uip/folder.c from exmh distribution to
2523 speed up -recurse option.
2525 * Added flist command from exmh distribution. It doesn't work
2526 yet, but it compiles :-)
2528 * Changed default location for install to
2529 /usr/local/nmh/{bin,etc,lib,man}. Split files so that format
2530 and configuration files go in nmh/etc, and support binaries go
2531 in nmh/lib. Of course, all this can now be changed in the top
2534 * Started with mh-6.8.3 as based and converted to autoconf.
2535 Rewrote all the Makefiles. Currently only works with sendmail/smtp.
2536 Pop support and plenty of other things, are now broken.
