! 11: - New directive: htmlmessage_deleted for setting a custom HTML
! 12: message for the body of deleted messages.
! 13: - New directive: delete_incremental to disable deleting of existing
! 14: messages in the archive when doing an incremental add of a new
! 15: message. In some setups, if this feature is enabled, replies to
! 16: deleted messages will cause uncontrolled markup escape and
! 17: expansion. Feature is enabled by default.
! 18: - Updated list of known protocol uris that hypermail will convert
! 19: into links.
! 20: - Bug fix: setup.c:MakeConfig() CFG_SWITCH was using long instead of
! 21: int.

! 23: put before each URI fragment in a message. Default value is "msg",
! 24: the previous hard-coded value.
! 25: - New directive: email_address_obfuscation foro enablingemail
! 26: address obfuscation using numeric character reference.
! 27: - New directive: inline_addlink to add in-line links to content that
! 28: is stored in the attachments subdirectory. 'inline_types" must
! 29: also be enabled.
! 30: - New directive: inreplyto_command, gives a URI template to a script
! 31: that hypermail will link to if it's unable to find a corresponding
! 32: Message-Id in the archive's messages.
! 33:
! 34: Peter McCluskey (May 13, 2008)
! 35: Change from Fumihiro Kato to fix bug that sometimes caused a charset

! 44: possible buffer overflow problems.
! 45: Change in rules about whether to escape urls; it now seems to escape them
! 46: when found in the middle of the line the same way it has been doing when
! 47: they are at the start of a line.
! 48:
! 49: Peter McCluskey (Feb 16, 2007)
! 50: Changes from Rick van der Zwet:
! 51: cosmetic = tweaking the interface a small bit (right align, the message
! 52: numbers, years in the date listing
! 53: spamify-domain = obfuscate the body of the message as well (will also
! 54: obfuscate 'ssh rick@foo.bar' this of course), moved the domain obfuscate

! 56: Changes from Mike Fabian changing int to size_t.
! 57:

63:
64: Peter McCluskey (Sep 30, 2005)
65: Fixed missing links at top when show_index_links is 1 or 3.
66:
67: Peter McCluskey (Aug 4, 2005)

69: which sometimes caused top level index page to show wrong number of
70: messages and not link to a folder.
71:
72: Peter McCluskey (Jul 29, 2005)
73: Changed to sort on sender date rather than from date when displaying

75:
76: Peter McCluskey (Jun 23, 2005)
77: Some small changes from Vincent McIntyre to make date-range in index of

103: Peter McCluskey (May 25, 2004)
104: Changed some of the addresses to hypermail-project.org.
105: Made the "We delete ... " message print only if progress != 0.
106:
107: Peter McCluskey (Mar 23, 2004)
108: Changes to speed up incremental update when there are deleted files if
109: using usegdbm (it's still slow if usegdbm = 0).
110:
111: ============================
112: HYPERMAIL VERSION 2.1.9:
113: ============================
114: Peter McCluskey (Feb 23, 2004)

119: Fix instructions for doing "make install" so that the documentation will
120: be installed.
121:

134: toplevel index pages.
135:
136: Peter McCluskey (Jan 9, 2004)
137: Change to make mbox_shortened option work a little better with
138: discard_dup_msgids = 0.
139: Change folder_by_date option to use "From " date rather than "Date: "
140: to decide which subdirectory to use. This makes it consistent with
141: top level index page.
142:
143: Peter McCluskey (Dec 26, 2003)
144: Add increment = -1 mode to enable automatic determination of whether
145: to update or append in most cases.
146:

156: partly fixed on Oct 1. Now old archives with a startmsgnum = 0 .hmrc but
157: a first message of 0001.html in this case will be treated as if startmsgnum
158: was 0.
159:
160: Peter McCluskey (Nov 15, 2003)
161: Add Portugese support from Hugo Cisneiros.
162:
163: Peter McCluskey (Oct 1, 2003)
164: Fix some problems with starting message number that caused bugs when
165: increment = 1, linkquotes = 1 and using folder_by_date.
166:
167: Peter McCluskey (Sep 11, 2003)
168: Fixes to make pcre work.
169:
170: Peter McCluskey (Sep 3, 2003)
171: Applied patches from Mike McDonald to use nowrap option in the author and
172: date columns in the index tables and get rid of all of the 'width=100%'
173: options to the tables.
174:
175: Peter McCluskey (Sep 3, 2003)
176: French language improvements from Olivier Kaloudoff.
177:
178: Peter McCluskey (Sep 1, 2003)
179: Applied patches from Mike McDonald to make spamify_replacedomain use
180: set_antispam_at, change printdates to include the dates in the table
181: version of the bydate index, and make the table use the whole screen
182: width instead of 80%.
183:
184: Jose Kahan (Aug 18, 2003)
185: - Changed to lowercase the suffixes added to the message indexes. That is,
186: from "archive name By Date" to "archive name by date" because the
187: upper case seemed out of style as we don't have any control on what
188: is the string used for the archive's name. Did this change only for
189: the English messages as I don't know if this convention works well for
190: other languages.
191:
192: Jose Kahan (Aug 18, 2003)
193: - Made the links to the different indexes show the index of the current entry.
194: This change originated from the feedback we got on the WAI enhanced archievs.
195: People find that this small changes increases the usability of the archive.
196:
197: Jose Kahan (Aug 18, 2003)
198: - The links to the first message (aka #first) were not working in the
199: by attachment, by author, and by subject indexes.
200:
201: Peter McCluskey (Aug 16, 2003)
202: - applied fix from Jean-Charles Meyrignac to handle 0x1A in mbox.
203:
204: Jose Kahan (Aug 14, 2003)
205: - After receiving more feedback, reverted the changes done for converting the
206: displayed value of the Date: header. The reason is that users like to know
207: when they send a message. This information was getting lost because we
208: were converting the date to the local time.
209: - Made the Received on date be shown in converted local time.
210: - Added a new configuration option, indexdateformat, so that people can
211: specify a different format for indexes than the one used elsewhere. If this
212: variable is not defined., it'll use the dateformat by default.
213: - Made the index by date compare dates independently of the value of dateformat.
214:
215: Jose Kahan (Aug 13, 2003)
216: - Made the Received on footnote line use the same date format as that used for the
217: Date: header on top of the messages.
218:
219: Jose Kahan (Aug 18, 2003)
220: - Small WAI change to the list of indexes to show the entry corresponding to
221: the current index, but outside of a link. This comes from feedback, where
222: people said it was less distracting to see the same index to links all
223: the time.
224:
225: Jose Kahan (Aug 18, 2003)
226: - Add the <title> WAI enhancement that I had forgotten to do for messages.
227: The new format is: [subject] from [author] on [date] ([mailing list label]).
228: I also removed the 64 characters maximum limit check we had on the title.
229: The reason is that this is not part of the HTML specification, but rather
230: a writing style. Dominique says we shouldn't be so strict in this case. In
231: addition, just adding a \0 after 64 characters could break entity names and
232: generate invalid HTML.
233:
234: Jose Kahan (Aug 13, 2003)
235: - The mailcommand option didn't work when applied to a paragraph that had
236: a previously converted href string that includes the '@' char. I added
237: a quick hack to ConvURlsString to avoid doing the mailto: convertion if an href
238: already exists in that line. The best solution would be to do something
239: similar to ConvURLsWithHrefs.
240: Also fixed a memory leak.
241:
242: Peter McCluskey (Aug 8, 2003)
243: - Applied haof fixes from Bernhard Reiter.
244:
245: Jose Kahan (Aug 4, 2003)
246: - As a side effect of PNK's use of an SGML entity for the @ char, the
247: mailcommand option stopped working on all the headers except for
248: the To: one.
249:
250: Jose Kahan (Aug 1, 2003)
251: - In order to guarantee the validity of XHTML documents, changed the
252: behavior of hypermail when including customized footers. Previously,
253: when using this option, the custom markup had to include the </body>
254: and </html> end tags. As we also need to include a </div> in some
255: cases for XHTML and it's much harder to guess when to add it, I
256: made hypermail always add those three end tags as needed, regardless
257: of whether the custom footer option is being used.
258:
259: Jose Kahan (Jul 30, 2003)
260: - After talking with Dom Hazel-Massieux, I added some extra WAI enhancements
261: to the list of indexes generated by hypermai. Specifically, the date
262: is shown in a verbose name in the title attribute of each entry and in
263: an abbreviated version in the markup that's being displayed.
264:
265: Jose Kahan (Jul 30, 2003)
266: - When rebuilding an archive, the attachment files were not being overwritten
267: correctly. . Fixed this by adding an O_TRUNC flag.
268:
269: Jose Kahan (Jul 29, 2003)
270: - Removed a memory leak in file.c as reported by insure.
271: - The ietf-mbox option didn't work on "quoted printable" encoded attachments.
272:
273: Peter McCluskey (July 22, 2003)
274: Fix show_msg_links = 3 option (Jose's changes assumed it didn't exist).
275: Updates to German from Tobias Weber.
276:
277: Kent Landfield (Jul 14, 2003)
278: - When show_headers was used in print.c, the newline was not recognized
279: early enough in printheaders. A check was added to assure the newline
280: was recognized properly.
281:
282: Kent Landfield (Jul 10, 2003)
283: - Small typo in print.c corrected.
284: fprintf(fp, "%s ^lt;<em>%s</em>>"...
285:
286: ========================
287: HYPERMAIL VERSION 2.1.8:
288: ========================
289:
290: Kent Landfield (Jun 28, 2003)
291: - Updated pcre library with pcre-4.3 sources. We were distributing a
292: much older version. We were distributing version was 3.3 from
293: August 1, 2000.
294: - Updated FILES with the lcc files and the pcre changes.
295: - Removed the deprecated "show_hr" from the tests/test.rc file.
296:
297: Jose Kahan (Jul 2, 2003)
298: - parseurl didn't work well when an URL was quoted and enclosed inside
299: tags. Such as:
300: <dd>some url</dd> </dd was put as part of the url.
301:
302: Jose Kahan (Jul 1, 2003)
303: - Added WAI enhancements to the list of indexes generated by hypermail.
304: To make things perfect, we would need a new configuration option to give
305: the format of the date in the list of indexes format. I hard coded it
306: for the moment as I ran out of time to do it right now. As it has to
307: use an abbreviated date format to avoid having a too big list of indexes,
308: we can' t reuse the standard set_dateformat value.
309: - Removed warnings detected thru gcc Wall.
310:
311: Peter McCluskey (June 30, 2003)
312: - Increased max_tokens used to allocate space for linkquotes data struct.
313:
314: Jose Kahan (Jun 28, 2003)
315: - Code cleaning. Removed the deprecated code for set_showhr and
316: set_usetable options.
317:
318: Kent Landfield (Jun 28, 2003)
319: - Arkadiusz Miskiewicz <arekm@sse.pl> reported progerr() was being
320: called with NULL instead of the previously constructed error message.
321: His supplied patches were applied.
322:
323: Peter McCluskey (June 27, 2003)
324: - Made dates in subdirectory index files reflect subdirectory date range,
325: rather than the date range for the whole archive.
326:
327: Peter McCluskey (June 24, 2003)
328: - Fix print_index_header_links to print MSG_ENDING date correctly (had
329: been using 2 getdatestr() calls in one argument list).
330:
331: Peter McCluskey (June 20, 2003)
332: - Fix a core dump with empty Date:.
333:
334: Jose Kahan (Jun 10, 2003)
335: - Some extra WAI enhancements requested during the period of public comments:
336: Order the date index by dates, like in subjects, add <dfn> to the start and
337: end period in the indexes, change the title of "jump to first message" to
338: "jump to list of messages".
339: - The top respond link didn't take into account the msgid or subject. It was
340: just a plain mailto. Made it work as the bottom one.
341:
342: Jose Kahan (Jun 10, 2003)
343: - Adding new messages using the -u option to an existing file sometimes
344: resulted in warnings saying "Message-ID is missing, ignoring message
345: with subject..." Patch idea submitted by Peter.
346:
347: Jose Kahan (Jun 10, 2003)
348: - The incremental option (-u) always started new archives with 0001, rather
349: than 0000. It will now start with 0000 as before
350: For those people who had this problem and don't want to break any links to
351: their archives when rebuilding them, there's a new configuration option
352: allowing you to tell from which number you want to start your archive:
353: startmsgnum. You should only set it up once and not modify it for an
354: existing archive or your links may break.
355: A warning message appeared systematically because the showhr, which is
356: now deprecated, was turned on by default.
357:
358: Peter McCluskey (May 22, 2003)
359: - add Italian support from Gabriele Bartolini and Marco Nenciarini.
360:
361: Peter McCluskey (May 16, 2003)
362: - Fixed initialization of prior_subdir when dirs created out of
363: order. That fixes a case where a subdir wasn't in index files with
364: reverse_folders = 1.
365:
366: Jose Kahan (May 13, 2003)
367: - Add the WAI enhancements proposed in
368: http://www.w3.org/2002/03/archives-improvements/.
369: As a consequence of this change, the sethr and usetable configuration
370: options are deprecated. The new markup takes into account the changes
371: that those options proposed and offers them in a WAI friendly way.
372: Some code cleaning needs yet to be done to remove all the cases
373: where those rules were used. Previous code version is tagged as
374: "before-wai".
375: Fixed some invalid XHTML markup too.
376:
377: Peter McCluskey (May 12, 2003)
378: - fix txtsuffix to not crash on null pointer.
379: - fix discard_dup_msgids to work when showprogress = 0.
380:
381: Peter McCluskey (April 24, 2003)
382: - spam encoding from Peter Karlsson. Currently enabled via the
383: spamprotect option.
384:
385: Jose Kahan (Apr 23, 2003)
386: - As a consequence of the XHTML convertion, unconvchars() wasn't
387: storing information into the buffer when there were no entities.
388:
389: Jose Kahan (Apr 10, 2003)
390: - Converted hypermail to XHTML. The only remaining issue concerns
391: charsets. Some mail clients don't specify a correct charset or
392: specify a charset and include characters belonging to other
393: charset spaces. The solution to detect and convert the
394: foreign charset into a Unicode entity or, for the adventurous
395: hacker, convert hypermail's output to UTF-8. For the moment, only
396: the former is implemented partially; there is only one a winlatin1
397: (Windows CP 1252) to Unicode convertion/detection being done.
398: See string.c:convchars, unconvwinlatin1, and uconvert.h for more
399: details.
400: The best solution will be to move to UTF-8, but this has to be planned.
401: If you have a charset issue, your XHTML document will be invalid.
402: As XHTML is backwards compatible with HTML, you can avoid this problem
403: by continuing to use the text/html MIME type.
404:
405: Peter McCluskey (April 3, 2003)
406: - Fixed so attachment.html doesn't list .meta directory.
407:
408: Kent Landfield (Mar 20, 2003)
409: - Added Splint (www.splint.org) support to src/Makefile.in
410: - Corrected Initializer block for ltable[12]. Had 2 fields, but struct
411: language_entry has 3 fields.
412: - Removed unused gp variable in update_deletions().
413: - modified print_main_header() to assure title meets HTML recommendations
414: of no longer than 64 characters.
415: - Updated docs/hypermail.rc
416:
417: Peter McCluskey (Mar 18, 2003)
418: - Fixed overwrite = 0 to avoid rewrite of many files involved in replies
419: with folder_by_date option.
420:
421: Peter McCluskey (Mar 14, 2003)
422: - Fixed two bugs with deleting messages with the incremental mode. One bug
423: meant that the message body was only rewritten or removed with the
424: delete_msgnum option, not delete_older / delete_newer. The other bug
425: involved only updating the is_deleted flag in the gdbm file if the
426: message body was redone to update a MSG_IN_REPLY_TO line.
427:
428: Kent Landfield (Mar 9, 2003)
429: - updated domains.h to accurately reflect the current set of root domains.
430:
431: Peter McCluskey (Mar 7, 2003)
432: - Fixed problem with reverse_folders option that caused the index file
433: to leave out folders when there were some unusual mismatches between the
434: 2 dates in one message.
435:
436: Kent Landfield (Feb 28, 2003)
437: - changed wait.h sys/wait.h for portability in msg2archive
438: - removed unused variable in finelink.c
439:
440: Kent Landfield (Feb 20, 2003)
441: - corrected docs/Makefile.in to create the images dir if it does not exist.
442:
443: Kent Landfield (Feb 20, 2003)
444: - added wait.h to msg2archive that was needed for s_popen()
445: - removed unused variable in finelink.c
446:
447: ========================
448: HYPERMAIL VERSION 2.1.7:
449: ========================
450:
451: Peter McCluskey (Feb 20, 2003)
452: - Made version 2.1.7 tar file.
453:
454: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (Feb 20, 2003)
455: - makemailcommand wasn't escaping non-ascii characters in the URLS
456: that it generated.
457:
458: Peter McCluskey (Feb 19, 2003)
459: - Fix to append option to handle some lines getting discarded in mdecodeQP.
460:
461: Kent Landfield (Feb 19, 2003)
462: - Updated TODO with configure issues and other corrections we want
463: to make to the code in the near future.
464:
465: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (Feb 19, 2003)
466: - Upgraded extract_rfc2047_content() as the previous extracting
467: algorithm was broken.
468:
469: Kent Landfield (Feb 18, 2003)
470: - Added missing contrib utilities, contrib/msg2hypermailarchive.py
471: and contrib/runtest to FILES
472: - Added checking in struct.c to limit the length of Subject: line to
473: avoid theoretical Denial-of-Service
474: - Removed code that was ifdef'ed NOTUSED
475:
476: Peter McCluskey (Feb 17, 2003)
477: - Fix to attachment Content-Type parsing to strip all whitespace off
478: end of type rather than just newline.
479:
480: Kent Landfield (Feb 17, 2003)
481: - Added safe_tmpfile() usage instead of internal usage.
482:
483: Peter McCluskey (Feb 14, 2003)
484: - Disabled conversion of file:// into href - it seemed to allow anyone
485: who could access the web server via local host could read any file
486: that the web server had permission to read rather than just files
487: in the archive directory.
488:
489: Peter McCluskey (Feb 13, 2003)
490: - Add -DTRIO_MINIMAL. Solves a trio compile problem in SunOS and makes
491: binary a little smaller.
492: - Strip mail.c down to minimal warning message so we don't have to worry
493: about analyzing it's security problems.
494: - Changes to get strerror, memmove from pcre when missing (e.g. on SunOS).
495: How was this working on SunOS before?
496: - Fix faulty sizeof in snprintf for MSG_ENCODING_IS_NOT_SUPPORTED.
497:
498: Kent Landfield (kent@hypermail.org) (February 12, 2003)
499: - Converted msg2archive.c to use Thomas Biege's <thomas@suse.de>
500: s_popen() instead of popen().
501:
502: Kent Landfield (kent@hypermail.org) (February 11, 2003)
503: - Modified configure.in to test for snprintf. This is needed
504: since Solaris 2.5.1 does not have snprintf. This only affects
505: the msg2archive and mbox2hypermail in the archive directory.
506:
507: Kent Landfield (kent@hypermail.org) (February 10, 2003)
508: - Modified configure to assure on Solaris that the ctype functions
509: were used instead of the macroes. New NO_MACRO define in config.h.
510: - Added most of the patches submitted by Thomas Biege <thomas@suse.de>
511: - Cleaned up compilation commenting out unused variables with NOT_USED.
512: Need to remove them and other unnecessary code soon.
513: - Various other minor compilation issues.
514: - Corrected prototype issue in print.c
515: - Added parameter checking to archive/*.c source
516:
517: Peter McCluskey (Feb 10, 2003)
518: - Fixed the append option to handle lines between end of headers through
519: mime boundary correctly.
520:
521: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (February 06, 2003)
522: - Added a protection against the use of the nonsequential messaging option
523: when hypermail wasn't compiled with the libfnv.
524:
525: Kent Landfield (kent@hypermail.org) (February 06, 2003)
526: - Hypermail 2.1.6 runs on a DEC Alpha running TRU64 when compiled
527: with GCC 2.95. It does however require the -mieee flag be set for the
528: trionan.c sources.
529: - Modified configure.in script to support setting the the -mieee flag
530: for an Alpha TRU64 build.
531: - Modified various Makefile.in files to assure clean/clobber/distclean
532: worked universally.
533:
534: Peter McCluskey (Feb 1, 2003)
535: - Changes to make stack overflow less common.
536:
537: Peter McCluskey (January 29, 2003)
538: - Fixed faulty freeing of memory that caused core dump with files_by_thread
539: option.
540: - Fixed missing function call argument with files_by_thread option. I suspect
541: this was causing some random behavior, but I only found it due to valgrind.
542: - Fix for placement of link to next msg with incremental update, usetable = 0.
543:
544: Peter McCluskey (January 28, 2003)
545: - Fix from Zvi Har'El to leading zeroes in anchors in index pages with
546: indextable=0.
547: - Changes to Swedish from Peter Karlsson.
548:
549: Peter McCluskey (January 26, 2003)
550: - Fix for placement of link to next msg with incremental update.
551:
552: ========================
553: HYPERMAIL VERSION 2.1.6:
554: ========================
555:
556: Peter McCluskey (January 24, 2003)
557: - Released version 2.1.6 tar file.
558: - Fix buffer overflow when progress = 2 (triggered by long attachment
559: names). Was a security risk.
560: - Fix buffer overflow in mail (cgi) program that probably created security
561: risk if gethostbyaddr returned h_name of about 80 chars for an ip address.
562: - Disabled the functionality of the mail program and replaced it by default
563: with warning about abuse by spammers. Added warnings about use of program.
564: - Change size of boundbuffer (in parse.c) to 256, limit sscanf that fills it
565: to 255 bytes. This prevents a buffer overflow with long mime boundaries. The
566: buffer overflow didn't seemed to produce only minor problems, but it's hard
567: to rule out security risks.
568: - Add check for inline attachment name overflowing attachname buffer (like
569: the check that Jose added today for non-inlined attachments).
570: - Add check for append_filename and alts_text exceeding buffer size.
571: - Delete attachment directory of messages that are discarded due to a missing
572: or duplicate message-id.
573:
574: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (January 24, 2003)
575: - Fixed a buffer overflow reported by Ulf Harnhammar from VSU security.
576:
577: Peter McCluskey (January 22, 2003)
578: - If mime message has an end boundary but no start boundary (as a buggy
579: version of Microsoft Outlook seems to create), the body is now treated
580: as a plain text message rather than discarded.
581: - Update trio code to trio version 1.9.
582:
583: Peter McCluskey (January 20, 2003)
584: - Several fixes to avoid uninitialized memory reads reported by valgrind.
585:
586: Peter McCluskey (January 18, 2003)
587: - Fix random behavior in parseurl which sometimes caused core dumps on lines
588: ending in http://, ftp://, etc.
589:
590: Peter McCluskey (December 19, 2002)
591: - Apply patch from Wolfgang Spraul fixing link from subdir attachment.html to
592: index.html when defaultindex = date
593:
594: Peter McCluskey (November 26, 2002)
595: - Changed attachment naming back to what it was before Jose added
596: set_nonsequential.
597: - Changed attachment naming so that files are stored using the names
598: provided without any %d- prepended whenever that doesn't cause conflicts.
599:
600: Kent Landfield (kent@hypermail.org) (November 24, 2002)
601: - Made some updates to the docs. Still need to update the
602: docs to include writehaof, nonsequential, msgsperfolder and
603: assure other config file directives are listed and current.
604:
605: Kent Landfield (kent@hypermail.org) (November 24, 2002)
606: - Added Russian language support.
607: Submitted by Igor Solovyoff" <siv@intear.com.ua>
608:
609: Kent Landfield (kent@hypermail.org) (November 24, 2002)
610: - Made the "_at_" antispam bit configurable by config file, using
611: antispam_at = __somestring__ (does not have to have __ in it)
612: Anything hardcoded by default, can be figured out and used by
613: spammers. Particularly something like "_at_".
614: Submitted by Philip Brown <phil@bolthole.com>
615:
616: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (October 17, 2002)
617: - URL generation was broken when a URL had a '@' char and hypermail
618: was using the mailcommand option. parseemail() didn't take this
619: case into account yet (there's just an empty statement). I added a
620: quick patch to convert the '@' into an HTML entity when doing the
621: convertion inside a URL. The change is in translateurl().
622:
623: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (October 2, 2002)
624: - In order to avoid hashed filename collisions, the filename
625: is now built with a hash of the msgid concatenated to the
626: Epoch seconds of the From date. This gives a total of
627: 16 characters (all data is represented in hex). Only messages
628: that have the same msgid and that arrive in the same second
629: will have a collision.
630: I also compiled with the Warning flags and removed some
631: warnings.
632:
633: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (October 2, 2002)
634: - The access righs of the msgindex file (for the hashed filenames)
635: were not being set at all.
636:
637: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (October 1, 2002)
638: - The non-sequential msgid mode didn't work when updating the
639: archives by one message. Fixed a confusion in the generation of
640: the msgindex file.
641:
642: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (September 26, 2002)
643: - Cleaned the autoconf files for passing the libnvf compile parameters
644: (what a difference does reading the manual make).
645:
646: Peter McCluskey (September 25, 2002)
647: - Fix threading bug with incremental update and spamprotect_id = 1,
648: usegdbm = 0.
649:
650: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (September 25, 2002)
651: - Commited the ~/hypermail/ltmain.sh file and also put it in the
652: FILES section. Somehow, without this file, it was impossible to
653: compile the file generated thru a make tgz. The same kind of
654: file already existed in the pcre and fnv directories.
655: Added a rule to pass the FNV optional CFLAGS from the
656: ~/hypermail/Makefile file, so that you can do a make from the top-level
657: (previously, you had to do it in the src directory... oops!).
658:
659: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (September 25, 2002)
660: - Updated the FILES tgz file (added libfnv, removed two non-existent
661: tests).
662: - Fixed the make tgz rule (how long was it since it was last used?)
663:
664: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (September 25, 2002)
665: - Added a new option to compute the archived filenames using an fnv hash
666: of the msgid + received From date. The resulting filename is 8 bytes long
667: (a space of 2^32 bits) + the extension. You can eventually change it to
668: 16 bytes if this is too short. Just look at the code.
669: The advantage of this is that you can add and remove items from the
670: archive and not worry anymore about broken links if the sequence
671: changes (e.g., if you are rebuilding an archive). To activate this
672: option, you need to do a ./ configure --enable-libfnv, then
673: recompile hypermail. The name of the new option is nonsequential
674: (lack of imagination!).
675:
676: Peter McCluskey (September 17, 2002)
677: - Added reverse_folders option.
678:
679: Peter McCluskey (August 30, 2002)
680: - Fix segfaults in mdecodeRFC2047 (with headers encoded as quoted printable),
681: and in ConvURLsString.
682: - Add files_by_thread option.
683:
684: Peter McCluskey (August 20, 2002)
685: - Change preferedcontent to fall back on type "text/" or on encoding if
686: it can't find any prefered types.
687: - Fix mdecodeRFC2047 to decode headers of any length (removing 128 byte limit).
688: - Add classes to default stylesheet to set colors of headers, standard links,
689: and of quoted text according to quote nesting depth.
690:
691: Peter McCluskey (August 16, 2002)
692: - Fix bug internal error in crossindexthread2 resulting from message with
693: unterminated mime.
694:
695: Peter McCluskey (August 11, 2002)
696: - Add Norwegian language support from Bosse Klykken.
697:
698: Peter McCluskey (August 7, 2002)
699: - Add contrib/msg2hypermailarchive.py from Bernhard Reiter.
700: - Add antispamdomain option from Vincent McIntyre.
701: - Add delete_newer option.
702:
703: Peter McCluskey (August 3, 2002)
704: - Fix expires option to work in incremental mode.
705: - Add delete_older option.
706:
707: ========================

720: - Fix some missing links to multipart attachments with save_alts option.
721:
722: Peter McCluskey (July 11, 2002)
723: - Add base_url option, and warning about it being needed when the
724: latest_folder option is used and the folder_by_date option contains a '/'.
725:
726: Peter McCluskey (July 8, 2002)
727: - Fix endless loop that save_alts option often produced.
728:
729: Peter McCluskey (June 18, 2002)
730: - Applied changes from Carlos Martín Ugalde to Spanish text.
731:
732: Peter McCluskey (June 13, 2002)
733: - Fix call to compute_quoted_percent so that it doesn't crash on deleted msg
734: with incremental update.
735:
736: Peter McCluskey (May 14, 2002)
737: - Add spamprotect_id option.
738:
739: Peter McCluskey (Apr 26, 2002)
740: - Changed to convert ampersands in urls to &.
741:

744: - Surpress <p> within <pre>.
745:
746: Peter McCluskey (Mar 22, 2002)
747: - Fixed to rewrite old messages that have new replies (some links to
748: replies/next in thread had been missing for overwrite=0, increment=0,
749: and also for linkquotes = 1).
750: - Updated configure to reflect Daniel's changes to fix --without-gdbm
751: in configure.in.
752:
753: Peter McCluskey (Mar 19, 2002)

760: - Patch from William R. Knox to add meta date tag.
761:
762: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (Jan 25, 2002)
763: - When a message had a charset of type US-ASCII or ISO-8959-1, it wasn't
764: being stored in the HTML version of the message. This could result in
765: a correct decoding of the message, as browsers assume a user-given
766: default charset in those cases.
767:
768: Peter McCluskey (Jan 11 2002)
769: - Patch from William R. Knox to fix possible race condition in creating dirs.

846: * escape &'s, add image/png in test.rc, hmrc.example
847: - Changed the fix*header() routines so that they handle incremental updates
848: sensibly when given a mailbox with multiple messages. In the process, I
849: fixed 2 problems with single-message incremental updates, one which left
850: out the "Next message" link, and one which created a "Reply" link that should
851: have been a "Maybe reply".
852: - Add warning for mbox that starts with different msg than gdbm file if

870: from being used there.
871:
872: Peter McCluskey (Nov 13 2001)

883: 4. changed to convert <p> to blank line (instead of to nothing).
884: 5. additions to improve handling of archives produced linkquotes=1 option.
885:
886: Peter McCluskey (Nov 5 2001)

1052: HYPERMAIL VERSION 2.1.0:

1061:
1062: Peter McCluskey (Mar 30 2001)

1074:
1075: Peter McCluskey (Mar 22 2001)
1076: - Fixed problem with GDBM defines.
1077: - Improved speed by replacing O(N^2) code in these functions with
1078: code that is at least typically close to O(N):
1079: addreply, crossindexthread1, crossindexthread2, nextinthread,
1080: writearticles (if set_showreplies)
1081: Accidentally improved threading under linkquotes option in the process.
1082: Overall performance probably scales up linearly with the number of
1083: messages under normal conditions (but not with linkquotes, which has other
1084: performance problems as well). Code is ifdef'd under FASTREPLYCODE for now.
1085:
1086: Peter McCluskey (Mar 19 2001)
1087: - Added new usegdbm and append options from Scott Rose.
1088:
1089: Peter McCluskey (Mar 14 2001)

1091:
1092: Peter McCluskey (Mar 13 2001)
1093: - Sped up by balancing the datelist tree a bit (it had been virtually
1094: a linked list) and by removing redundant call to nextinthread.
1095:
1096: Peter McCluskey (Mar 12 2001)
1097: - Added contrib/cron_hypermail
1098: - Added some files in contrib and tests/mboxes to FILES.
1099:
1100: Peter McCluskey (Mar 2 2001)
1101: Added features originally implemented in critmail. New source files:
1102: finelink.c
1103: finelink.h
1104: quotes.c
1105: search.c
1106: search.h
1107: txt2html.c
1108: txt2html.h
1109: New options:
1110: - showhtml: new option value 2 gives richer conversion to html borrowed
1111: from txt2html.pl.
1112: - monthly_index: create additional index files broken up by month.
1113: - yearly_index: create additional index files broken up by year.
1114: - thread_file_depth: break the threads index file into multiple files,
1115: roughly one per thread.
1116: - linkquotes: creates fine-grained links from quoted text to the text
1117: where the quote originated. It also improves the threads index file
1118: by more accurately matching messages with replies.
1119: - searchbackmsgnum: with linkquotes and -u, speeds up processing, with
1120: some risk that linkquotes won't find all links it should.
1121: - link_to_replies: generate links from original quoted text to the
1122: location(s) in replies which quote them.
1123: - quote_hide_threshold: If the linkquotes option is on, replaces quoted
1124: text with links in messages which quote too much.
1125: - quote_link_string: with quote_hide_threshold, use this text in place
1126: of first line of quoted text.
1127:
1128: Peter McCluskey (Feb 20 2001)
1129: - replaced the bodymailcommand with the following, to be more compatible:
1130: * mailcommand - works as before unless replymsg_command specified
1131: * replymsg_command - used for sending a reply to the list; if not specified,
1132: is set to the value in mailcommand for compatibility with old .hmrc's
1133: * newmsg_command - used for sending a new message to the list
1134:
1135: ========================
1136: HYPERMAIL VERSION 2.0.0:
1137: ========================
1138:
1139: Peter McCluskey (Feb 19 2001) applied patches from "W. Tasin" <tasin@fhm.edu>
1140: - some changes in the german translation
1141: - if a Content-Base is found set content=CONTENT_IGNORE because it is on
1142: another server and it would never be parsed well inside the mail...
1143: (this is more a workaround than a good patch... a better way would be to
1144: include this to every link inside the content... to show up also this
1145: external site... but I think it is an easy way to handle this problem)
1146: - add NONE as value for set_mailcommand, so "New Message" will not be shown
1147: - improve handling of inline attachments after signature.
1148: - prevent "(no email)" in emailaddr from becoming mailto.
1149: - add option set_bodymailcommand to configure mailto's other than one
1150: used in MSG_NEW_MESSAGE or MSG_REPLY.
1151: - changes to makemailcommand to prevent (nil) from showing when no Subject:.
1152:
1153: Daniel Stenberg (Jan 3, 2001)
1154: - Added checks for more functions in the configure script
1155:
1156: Ashley M. Kirchner (May 31, 2000)
1157: - I converted all uppercase HTML tags to lowercase in the main hypermail
1158: base source. Stuff that got contributed (under the contrib directory)
1159: were not touched. I'm going to leave those for their respective
1160: contributors to change.
1161:
1162: Daniel Stenberg (daniel@haxx.nu) (May 25, 2000)
1163: - Added 'spamprotect' as a new flag. It replaces @-letters with "_at_" to
1164: confuse spam-email-robots a bit.
1165:
1166: - Found a terrible bug when an URL contains a @-letter, since it'll first
1167: become <href>-tagged and then <mailto>-converted... :-/
1168:
1169: - Added https:// as a recognized URL type (deja-vu, didn't I do this before?)
1170:
1171: - Corrected the alternative parser not being reset at the end of all mails
1172:
1173: Daniel Stenberg (daniel@haxx.nu) (May 23, 2000)
1174: - Corrected the output on %> appearences in the template files
1175:
1176: - Applied the beauty fix supplied by Darryl Lee <lee@darryl.com>
1177:
1178: Daniel Stenberg (Apr 10, 2000)
1179: - I made %<unknown letter> in printfile display exactly as used the other
1180: day. Today I changed my email address all over!
1181:
1182: - Added https:// to the recognized URL types to <a>-ify
1183:
1184: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (Jan 17, 2000)
1185:
1186: - The quoted printable decoding didn't take into account the
1187: ietf-mbox option.
1188:
1189: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (Dec 24, 1999)
1190:
1191: - Removed an invalid </A> tag when using tables.
1192:
1193: - When using the showhtml option, invalid HTML was generated in the
1194: headers: <P><P> before the </PRE>.
1195:
1196: - Stopped the generation of a Mailto on msgid's.
1197:
1198: - Rearranged the format of the index and messages when not using
1199: tables. My aim was to make the format more symetrical.
1200:
1201: - Added a new item, "Mail actions", in the control menu. This item
1202: is only active when using the mailcommand and hmail options, and
1203: when the tables are turned off. This option duplicates the one found in
1204: the table.
1205:
1206: - Added two new options for linking external stylesheets to the index
1207: and the messages, respectively: icss_url, mcss_url. The link is added
1208: as a META element in the header.
1209:
1210: - The default value of the mailcommand mailto: had some typos: non
1211: escaped chars, use of reply-to instead of in-reply-to.
1212:
1213: - Two protections were missing to avoid having empty HREFs when the
1214: about and archives options were defined in the .hmrc file, but wihout
1215: any given value.
1216:
1217: Jose Kahan (jose@w3.org) (Dec 15, 1999)
1218:
1.9 kahan 1219: - The inline changes from 29/Nov had the side effect that other
1220: inline attachments, like text/html were being linked like inline
1221: images.
1222:
1.8 kahan 1223: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Dec 8, 1999)
1224:
1225: - Bjarni R. Einarsson <bre@netverjar.is> pointed out that the
1226: "Reply:" and "Maybe Reply:" output was not correct. pcm@rahul.net
1227: (Peter C. McCluskey) submitted a patch that fixes them as well
1228: as the current threading allows.
1229:
1230: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Dec 7, 1999)
1231:
1232: - Added hoaf-28 python index generator written and contributed
1233: by Bernhard Reiter <bernhard@climate2.geog.uwm.edu> to the basline.
1234:
1235: - Added ls2mail script written by David Kilzer <ddkilzer@ti.com>
1236: to the basline.
1237:
1238: - Converted libcgi.doc to libcgi.html.
1239:
1240: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Dec 1, 1999)
1241:
1242: - hypermail-2b28 rolled.
1243:
1244: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Nov 29, 1999)
1245:
1246: - Corrected a parsing error in parsemail when dealing with
1247: attachments. If the filename was "quoted" things worked
1248: properly. If the filename was not quoted then the name
1249: of the attachment was dropping the first letter of the
1250: filename and adding '_' to the end.
1251:
1252: - Corrected a conditional statement that was limiting storage
1253: of 'inline' types to only recording inline types that were
1254: of type image/.
1255:
1256: - Changed strstr usage when searching MIME headers to
1257: use strcasestr instead as the case sensitivity was
1258: getting in the way.
1259:
1260: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Nov 28, 1999)
1261:
1262: - Inconsistencies in write* routines called in hypermail.c
1263: pointed out by Bernhard Reiter <bernhard@uwm.edu>. set_*
1264: variables were used but still passing values in with the
1265: function call. Removed unneeded parameters.
1266:
1267: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Nov 22, 1999)
1268:
1269: - The .hmrc resources didn't seem to override the default values, but
1270: rather got added to them. This was corrected for list usage. If
1271: a list value is set in the .hmrc file, it should completely replace
1272: the default values. This need only occur on the first occurance
1273: after the builtin initialization.
1274:
1275: - Jeff Katcher pointed out 'At the bottom of index.html and date.html,
1276: "Last message date:" is output twice. It's only present once on the
1277: author and subject pages.' This has been corrected so it is only
1278: printed once.
1279:
1280: Jose Kahan <jose@w3.org> (Nov 23, 1999)
1281:
1282: - A typo in setup.c:PreConfig gave problems (memory overwrite) when
1283: dealing with CFG_LIST configuration options.
1284:
1285: - uudecode wasn't working with the ietf-mbox option.
1286:
1287: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Nov 22, 1999)
1288:
1289: - Error in setting of defaultindex in configure.in caused no index.html
1290: file to be created. configure.in was corrected to set the default
1291: index to "thread" instead of thread.html.
1292:
1293: - Added .indent.pro files to FILES file.
1294:
1295: - Added "-p" option to mkdir so all parent directories will be made if
1296: needed.
1297:
1298: - Added requests to TODO file.
1299:
1300: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Nov 17, 1999)
1301:
1302: - hypermail-2b27 rolled.
1303:
1304: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Nov 17, 1999)
1305:
1306: - Changed the install dependencies for the Makefile.in files
1307: so that install-sh is used through out.
1308:
1309: - Assured all includes are checked for in configure.
1310:
1311: - Updated FILES
1312:
1313: - Corrected dependencies on defaults.h
1314:
1315: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Nov 14, 1999)
1316:
1317: - Corrected CFG_LIST storage of defaults other than NULL in
1318: the function ConfigAddItem().
1319:
1320: - Assured struct hmlist variables set_text_types,
1321: set_inline_types, set_prefered_types, set_ignore_types,
1322: and set_show_headers set to NULL initially. Othewise
1323: add_list was checking garbage when called from ConfigAddItem().
1324:
1325: - Reworked some of the defaults in setup.c
1326:
1327: - Added a dump_configI() routine to print out all internal variables
1328: for debugging. Use #ifdef DEBUG to get it included.
1329:
1330: - Removed unused defines in setup.h
1331:
1332: - Added defaults.h.in so sites could setup reasonable global defaults.
1333:
1334: - Added additional configure support for setting defaults for
1335: language, htmlsuffix, defaultindex and domainaddr in defaults.h.
1336:
1337: - Added cleanup of defaults.h and mail-archive test directory to Makefile
1338:
1339: - Removed old method from Makefile.in and lists.h in the archive directory.
1340:
1341: - Regenerated configure from configure.in.
1342:
1343: - Regenerated the dependencies in src/Makefile.in

1346:
1347: - Changed strdup calls to strsav calls in getname.c and mail.c
1348:
1349: - Cleaned up html page output if usetable was selected.
1350:
1351: - Removed unnecessary variable passing into the writedates(),
1352: writethreads(), writesubjects(), writeauthors() routines.
1353:
1354: - Freed up memory alocated for configfile variable.
1355:
1356: - Removed unneeded variables in hypermail.h (previously #if 0'ed)

1361:
1362: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Nov 11, 1999)
1363:
1364: - Removed strdup declarations that were causing gcc to fail
1365: on certain systems.
1366:
1367: - Added French language support contributed by Nicolas NOBLE
1368: <pixels@chez.com>

1370: - Updated documents about "is" and "fr" language support.
1371:
1372: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (Nov 9, 1999)
1373:
1374: - Added checking the return value of getpwuid() in readconfigs. If
1375: the value is NULL then see if the $HOME is set in the environment.
1376: This avoids a crash for Win32 users who don't bother to set up
1377: /etc/passwd in cygwin environment.
1378:
1379: - Added support for proper naming of executables (hypermail on
1380: Unix hypemail.exe on Dos/Windows/NT).
1381:
1382: - Corrected getlocaltime so it would not print the timezone twice
1383: if the timezone was also specified in the dateformat directive.
1384:
1385: - Corrected print.c so From: is printed when the email address
1386: is the same as email name.
1387:
1388: - Removed tests/testhm from the baseline. Replaced it with testhm.in
1389: so configure can generate the proper path to the test hypermail
1390: executable.
1391:
1392: - Modified configure.in so that it can determine if it is running
1393: in cygwin environment. Added tests/testhm.in support.
1394:
1395: - Removed acconfig.h from the baseline as it is no longer needed
1396: with the current configure changes.
1397:
1398: - Assured destination directories exist for all installed files.
1399:
1400: - Added uninstall option in makefiles.
1401:
1402: - Cleaned up the docs/Install-win32.txt to reflect the changes made.
1403:
1.7 kahan 1404: Bjarni R. Einarsson <bre@netverjar.is> (Nov 5, 1999)
1405:
1406: - "is" message table translation.
1407:
1408: - Added a stripsubject feature to hypermail, which
1409: makes it remove all occurances of a given word from the subject line,
1410: which is really useful for un-cluttering the subjects of some mailing
1411: lists (my lists all have their subjects prefixed with [listname]: -
1412: which is quite redundant in an archive).
1413:
1.8 kahan 1414: Jose Kahan <jose@w3.org> (Nov 4, 1999)
1.7 kahan 1415:
1416: - Cleaned a bit the HTML format as well as the arranging of the indexes,
1417: to make them look a bit more coherent.
1418:
1419: - Commented the code that assumed we have an HTML text when finding a
1420: line with <HTML>. The best way is to send HTML text using a correct
1421: content type.
1422:
1423: - New configuration option, custom_archives, that allows to define
1424: a proprietary HTML text to be shown in the Other mailing archives
1425: item.
1426:
1427: - New configuration option, ietf_mbox, for parsing IETF-formatted mboxes
1428: (see the doc).
1429:
1.8 kahan 1430: Jose Kahan <jose@w3.org> (Nov 2, 1999)
1.7 kahan 1431:
1432: - When using the showhtml option, </PRE> tags were being added to each
1433: line of the signatures.
1434:
1.6 kahan 1435: Martin Schulze <joey@infodrom.north.de> (October 27, 1999)
1436:
1437: - Some where the showheaders functionality was lost. It has been
1438: partially added in. The 'hm_show_headers = list_of_RFC_Headers_to_display'
1439: functionality did not work and has been corrected.
1440:
1441: - If the show_headers directive contains the special character ``*'',
1442: hypermail will display all header lines.
1443:
1444: - Hypermail 2.x can now read hypermail 1.02 config files. Needed
1445: to assure minimal impact of existing sites that use the older
1446: version of hypermail.
1447:
1448: - hmrc.4 and hypermail.1 have been updated.
1449:
1450: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (October 27, 1999)
1451:
1452: - Edited documentation to the text more readable by using two spaces
1453: after a fullstop.
1454:
1455: - Cleaned up prototypes so they are consistent through out the include files.
1456:
1457: - Found many locations where a local variable was shadowing a global
1458: variable. Renamed certain variables to assure no compiler confusion.
1459:
1460: - Extended the warning switches in WARNINGS in the Makefile.in.
1461:
1462: Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> (October 23, 1999)
1463:
1464: - Added additional checks in configure for the operating system. Set -Ae for
1465: HP-UX and added checks for functions in libsocket and libnsl. Added sanity
1466: checks to assure you are on the same machine if you are using the existing
1467: config.cache and added acconfig.h config.guess config.sub support files.
1468: Additional cleanup to configure.in and a regenerated configure script.
1469:
1470: Scott Rose <srose@direct.ca> (October 20, 1999)
1471:
1472: - When a URL has trailing punctuation, it is almost certainly not part of
1473: the URL. This version of parseurl() therefore excludes trailing
1474: punctuation from URLs it finds.
1475:
1476: - If the content-description of a message was empty, and at the end of a
1477: line, the link to the associated attachment was anchored on null text.
1478: Fixed to assure the text is anchored on the filename in the generated HTML.
1479:
1480: Scott Rose <srose@direct.ca> (October 19, 1999)
1481:
1482: - Added contrib/canonicalize.pl
1483:
1484: Comparing two archives is complicated by the fact that each message is
1485: marked by the time at which it's archived. Attached is a script that
1486: standardizes that date, if weakly, useful for such comparisons.
1487:
1488: - Added contrib/hyperfeed.pl
1489:
1490: Feed messages from an mbox into hypermail one at a time so as
1491: to test the incremental mode of hypermail.
1492:
1493: - The idea here is that we are zipping along through an mbox, gathering
1494: information about a message, when we encounter a "From " line that signals
1495: the start of the next message. A side effect is populating dp with the
1496: date from that "From " line. In the existing code, that value is copied
1497: into fromdate[] just before the old message is hashed, which causes it
1498: to be associated with the previous message. This caused different output
1499: depending on incremental or mbox updating. This patch corrects that
1500: by moving the date copy until after the addhash function is called.
1501:
1502: Kent (October 18, 1999)
1503:
1504: - Updated parseurl fuction as done by Scott Rose <srose@direct.ca>
1505: provided 25% faster processing than the existing version while
1506: maintaining the same functionality.
1507:
1508: Kent (October 8, 1999)
1509:
1510: - Changed msg2archive.c to be able to use the command line
1511:
1512: - Made changes to runtest to assure msg2archive could be tested.
1513:
1514: - Added the indent file .indent.pro in archive, src and lib.
1515:
1516: - Ran indent on all sources in archive, src, and lib.
1517:
1518: - Made changes to configure.in to better support libsocket.a
1519:
1520: - Corrected configure.in check from gethostbyname to gethostbyaddr.
1521:
1522: - Added configure check for inet_addr
1523:
1524: - Added addition header checks and function checks in configure.in
1525:
1526: - Regenerated config.h.in with autoheader
1527:
1528: - Regenerated configure with autoconf
1529:
1530: - Updated the source files to use the HAVE_* definitions in config.h
1531:
1532: - Minor editing on the README
1533:
1534: - Minor updates to the TODO file and Changelog file.
1535:
1536: - Updated KNOWN_BUGS with the content of tests/Problems
1537:
1538: - Removed tests/Problems from the baseline as it was duplicating
1539: KNOWN_BUGS
1540:
1541: - Removed src/Formatting from the baselien as it was a junk working
1542: file of mine that should never have been baselined originally.
1543:
1544: - Added tests/mboxes/embedded.msg as a test file and updated
1545: tests/testhm to exersize it.
1546:
1547: - Removed the listing for tests/Problems and src/Formatting, while
1548: adding tests/mboxes/embedded.msg to the FILES file.
1549:
1550: - Added the corrected version of hypetombox.pl done by
1551: Peter McCluskey (pcm@rahul.net) to the baseline.
1552:
1553: Jose (October 7, 1999)
1554:
1555: - Changed the HTML DTD string of the generated strings to HTML 4.0
1556: Transitional.
1557:
1558: - Updated the doc to correspond to the suppression of the
1559: options's hm_ prefix. Made the doc's HTML documents valid HTML 4.0 docs.
1560:
1.5 kahan 1561: Kent (September 20, 1999)
1.6 kahan 1562:
1.5 kahan 1563: - Cleanup of prototypes.
1.3 kahan 1564:
1.5 kahan 1565: - Removed the generated getdate.c from the baseline. (Generated
1566: from getdate.y.
1567:
1568: - Purified and removed array bounds read problems.
1569:
1570: Daniel (September 17, 1999)
1571: - Applied language patches from Jyrki Kuoppala <jkp@kaapeli.fi>
1572:
1573: - Applied Kent Landfields lots of changes. getname() is reverted to an older
1574: version since the newer did out-of-bounds reads.
1575:
1576: - Paul Haldane's fix is applied.
1577:
1578: - Peter C. McCluskey <pcm@rahul.net> suggested fixreplyheader() correction
1579: has beed applied.
1580:
1581: Daniel (September 13, 1999)
1582:
1583: - Kent Landfield found a bunch of weirdnesses that were corrected, in:
1584: * threadprint.c/print_all_threads()
1585: * print.c, makemailcommand() usage
1586:
1587: Jose (September 8, 1999)
1588: - (This is a big commit as I'm merging my independent developments into
1589: the public hypermail tree, which I'll use from now on)
1590: If there's a Content-Description header, we now use it to describe
1591: MIME attachments (unless they are inlined).
1592: Two new options (see the hmrc.4 or hmrc.html file for more info):
1593: + hm_uselock to turn off hypermail's internal locking mechanism
1594: + hm_usemeta to store the content type of a MIME attachment in a
1595: metadata file (also available thru commandline option -M)
1596: If the usemeta option is turned on, the Content-Type header of an
1597: attachment is stored in a .meta directory (see hmrc.4 or hmrc.html for
1598: more info).
1599: Files where MIME attachments are now prefixed with a two-digit counter,
1600: a la dd-name. This is to avoid having having to create temporary files,
1601: and to preserver links. The counter is incremented for each attachment,
1602: regardless of it's being inline or not. I disabled the call to emptydir
1603: as it's not useful (will add it as an option later on).
1604: External MIME attachments that don't have a filename, are given the name
1605: dd-part.
1606: Improved handling of MIME rfc822 attachments.
1607: Improved handling of Content-Disposition
1608:
1.4 kahan 1609: Ashley (September 7, 1999)
1610: - Added configure options for --httpddir, --cgidir and --htmldir with
1611: Apache's layout as the default (/usr/local/apache)
1612:
1613: Daniel (August 23, 1999)
1614: - Removed the 40-letter limit for subjects in the thread-index when
1615: the table option was enabled.
1616:
1617: jose.kahan@w3.org
1618: - When the boundary is declared without quotes, parse.c failed to get it
1619: properly.
1620:
1621: - print.c: There was a missing <PRE> and this resulted in a not-readable text
1622:
1.3 kahan 1623: Daniel (August 10, 1999)
1624: - I hade a terrible bug that made the attachment directories to get created
1.4 kahan 1625: relative the wrong directory! They were also not getting the proper
1626: permissions set.
1.3 kahan 1627:
1628: Tim Witham <twitham@pcocd2.intel.com> (August 10, 1999)
1629: - Had to fix a realloc() with NULL pointer which sunos doesn't handle.
1630:
1631: 2a24
1632: ====
1633: Daniel (August 9, 1999)
1634: - I'm consider renaming the series of archives that I'm releasing, back to
1635: the beta label. It would be more correct. Kent is with us again and I
1636: don't think anyone is gonna continue on the now forever sleeping
1637: beta-series. This seems to be the one and only hypermail development
1638: branch and I believe we now have it stable enough.
1639:
1640: - 'attachmentlink' is a new config file item that controls how attachments'
1641: links are made. By using this you can make a wrapper cgi script on your
1642: server that issues a warning to the user that it may be dangerous to run
1643: attachments or whatever you think is appropriate. Default it behavs as it
1644: used to do before this feature was added.
1645:
1646: Daniel (August 8, 1999)
1647: - Applied Jose Kahan <Jose.Kahan@inrialpes.fr>'s patches:
1648:
1649: The alternate content parsing was broken in that you couldn't give a list
1650: of preferences. Also, if you first parse an alternate with a low priority,
1651: then another one with a higher priority, the memory and, eventually, files
1652: created to store the former alternate content weren't erased.
1653:
1654: I found a minor bug. When decoding messages with multiple MIME
1655: attachments, the decode variable (where the content encoding format is
1656: stored), isn't updated.
1657:
1658: Daniel (August 6, 1999)
1659: - Fixed the subject overflow
1660:
1661: - Made attachments get saved in their own subdirectories.
1662:
1.2 kahan 1663: 2a23
1664: ====
1665: Daniel
1666: - I'm making a release out of this now since I'm off for a longish
1667: vacation next week...
1668:
1.1 kahan 1669: Paul
1670:
1671: - Applied Tom van Alten's patch to correct improper formatting
1672: of messages when hm_showhtml = 0 and showheaders = 1.
1673:
1674: - New code to (optionally) accept messages wth no msgid. Default
1675: is to require msgids in all messages - use hm_require_msgids = 0
1676: to avoid this check.
1677:
1678: - Made handling of duplicate msgids optional. By default duplicates
1679: are discarded. To accept them (replacing the msgid with a generated
1680: msgid) use hm_discard_dup_msgids = 0.
1681:
1682: - Check return value from addhash when reading old messages. Messages
1683: already archived should be valid but safer to check.
1684:
1685: 2a22
1686: ====
1687: Daniel
1688: - Applied a boundary parsing bug correcting patch supplied by
1689: Andreas Fuchs <asf@ycom.at>
1690:
1691: Paul Haldane
1692: o (May 16th 1999)
1693: 1) changes to the way we construct threadlist (so that all the messages
1694: that should be in the thread are included even if they don't have valid
1695: in-reply-to headers)
1696:
1697: 2) changes to threadprint.c - simplification of print_all_threads. Now
1698: uses the information in threadlist to find the relationship between
1699: messages. This speeds things up a bit when adding single messages to
1700: large archives (I saw a reduction from 28s to 18s for adding a message to
1701: a 1,100 message archive). Slight speed-up when converting large archives
1702: - not as noticeable as a large part of time now seems to be in fopen().
1703:
1704: I've updated/added some comments.
1705:
1706: I've added msgnum to the reply struct - this is just a copy of msgnum in
1707: ->data->msgnum - this was intended as an optimisation but I suspect it
1708: doesn't make much difference.
1709:
1710: Threading is now much better (well, I would say that wouldn't I :->). it
1711: still gets things wrong occasionally - often not really its fault. Known
1712: problems include
1713:
1714: 1) duplicate message-ids - results in messages being attached to the wrong
1715: thread - actually found an instance of this in my test mailbox. The
1716: obvious heuristic to avoid this would be to compare the subject as well,
1717: though this breaks threads where the sender has deliberately changed the
1718: subject but intends to continue the thread.
1719:
1720: 2) occasionally gets messages in the wrong order because they get attached
1721: to different sub-threads - wouldn't happen if MUAs used in-reply-to.
1722:
1723: I've done a quick tweak to duplicate msgid handling in addhash. Now
1724: replaces duplicate msgids with a locally constructed one. This keeps
1725: things happier.
1726:
1727:
1728: 2a21
1729: ====
1730: Daniel
1731: o (May 12th)
1732: - Added the tests/stdintest.pl script. It is a small perl hack that passes
1733: a series of generated mails into hypermail on stdin. One by one. I've
1734: got reports about bugs in that area, but I can't seem to repeat any
1735: with this tool. I thought I'd better include this here anyway to better
1736: enable others to run more torture tests on hypermail.
1737:
1738: Paul Haldane
1739:
1740: o (May 6th)
1741: - Here's a patch that allows the user to decide on the format used to
1742: present dates on the generated pages. If dateformat is set then it uses
1743: that (that's the new functionality) otherwise it uses the standard
1744: format or euro format depending on the config file.
1745:
1746: I've not given the option to use the date string as originally given in
1747: the mail message. This could be done without too much hassle.
1748:
1749: Daniel
1750:
1751: o (May 5th)
1752: - Corrected a crash in parse.c
1753:
1754: - Added a missing "From:" in print.c
1755:
1756: - Made the bin-names get prefixed with "att-" too.
1757:
1758: - Adjusted getname() to skip all starting white spaces and quotes, and
1759: to skip trailing quotes as well as white spaces.
1760:
1761: o (May 4th)
1762: - Attachment names could miss the first letter.
1763:
1764: 2a20
1765: ====
1766: Daniel
1767:
1768: o (May 3 1999)
1769: - Implementing my new From:-parser into the new source file: getname.c.
1770: This should hopefully not only be much better at parsing from lines,
1771: but also to it in a more stable manner.
1772:
1773: - Found some additional problems with From-lines I've tried to correct.
1774: Like a single-mail archive or mails with no From:-lines at all.
1775:
1776: Ron Brogden <rb@islandnet.com>
1777:
1778: o A small correction to hypermail.c lets it compile properly on sunos 4.
1779:
1780: 2a19
1781: ====
1782:
1783: Daniel
1784:
1785: o Now I prefix filenames with "att-" when I save attachments.
1786:
1787: o Several errors correct, most of them by Paul Haldane.
1788:
1789: 2a18
1790: ====
1791:
1792: Daniel
1793:
1794: o (Apr 7 1999)
1795: - Added 'locktime' as a configurable item. It defines the maximum number
1796: of seconds to wait for an existing lock to dissapear before it is
1797: overridden. If this is 0 or less, the lockfile will lose its power
1798: completely. locktime is 3600 by default.
1799:
1800: - I made the 'indextable' option work as Glen Steward wanted it to (that
1801: March 30 patch apply wasn't such a big hit). You can either set
1802: "indextable = on" in the config file or use the -T command line option
1803: to get the indexes in "table" version.
1804:
1805: Paul Haldane
1806:
1807: o (Apr 7 1999)
1808: - Major date-parsing re-arrangement. getdate.c added, lots of functions
1809: patched. Speed improvements.
1810:
1811: 2a17
1812: ====
1813:
1814: Daniel
1815:
1816: o (Mar 30, 1999)
1817: - First atttempt at applying Glen Steward's table patches. It wasn't
1818: a complete success but it can be adjusted from here.
1819:
1820: o (Mar 29, 1999)
1821: - Ashley M. Kirchner found a silly bug that occured if the last mail
1822: in the box was a double message-id (or similar that makes that
1823: particular function return NULL).
1824:
1825: o (Mar 25, 1999)
1826: - Threaded index seems to work yet again!
1827: - Paul Haldane <Paul.Haldane@newcastle.ac.uk> brought me lots of
1828: various patches that made hypermail do better!
1829:
1830: o (Mar 25, 1999)
1831: - Corrected the problem with "re: subject" and "subject" being sorted
1832: differently. The explanation was that the "re:" subject had a space
1833: left in the beginning of the string!
1834:
1835: o (Mar 25, 1999)
1836: My giant work of redoing things now finally seems to work a little at
1837: least. What's been done the last week:
1838: - All emails now get only ONE single struct allocated for it.
1839: - Remade the hash stuff. Hashed entries in the table only stores a struct,
1840: links it in the list and POINTS to the email struct.
1841: - Added a hash on the 'inreplyto' string to better enable finding mails
1842: a mail replies to.
1843: - Rewrote the whole darned threaded index functions. threadprint.c is a
1844: new source file for threaded index functions.
1845: - All indexes will now have full access to the complete email struct and
1846: will thus enable dates all over etc. This will enable me to introduce
1847: a template feature for how to write an entry in an index. I.e what to
1848: include for each entry, subject, author, date, charset, bla bla bla...
1849: - Changed the way single mail's "next in thread" links are found.
1850: - As a "side-effect" I added a filter to prevent the same message ID
1851: twice. The reason for this is that it is more likely for it to be able
1852: to screw up the threading if I allow them to co-exist.
1853:
1854: o Ashley M. Kirchner <ashley@pcraft.com> works on the bug report web.
1855:
1856: o (Mar 15, 1999)
1857: Roman Shterenzon <roman@xpert.com> pointed out a bug in the HTML-reader
1858: that made hypermail crash if the variables were set to "". I mailed back
1859: a patch to him I think will correct this problem.
1860:
1861: 2a16
1862: ====
1863: Daniel
1864:
1865: o (Mar 14, 1999)
1866: "text_types" is now a recognized config file item, where you can specify
1867: MIME types that should be treated by hypermail _exactly_ as if they were
1868: text/plain.
1869:
1870: o Corrected the list-check routine, so that the items in the list are the
1871: ones using wildcards. This means that suddenly, all those mime-list items
1872: support wildcards!
1873:
1874: o (Mar 13, 1999)
1875: Craig A Summerhill <craig@cni.org> found a bug. It turned out to be the
1876: fact that parse.c wronly assumed content-type text/plain to use
1877: ENCODE_NORMAL. It was really silly, since the Content-Transfer-Encoding
1878: header could've already appeared and stated another encoding!
1879:
1880: o Adjusted configure.in to do a slightly better -libnsl check.
1881:
1882: o (Mar 11, 1999)
1883: CVS server is up again. Added the UPGRADE file to the tree. Thanks to
1884: Glen Stewart.
1885:
1886: o (Mar 10, 1999)
1887: Pretty extensive re-write of parse.c to deal with the
1888: "Content-Disposition" headers better. That line can give a hint whether
1889: the file should be stored as a file or showed inlined. It can also
1890: have the filename (RFC1806 for details).
1891:
1892: o (Mar 10, 1999)
1893: The CVS server is down due to admin work there.
1894:
1895: o (Mar 10, 1999)
1896: Fixed parseurl(). It now deals with <www.foobar.com> and similar
1897: constructions better. Craig A Summerhill <craig@cni.org> reported.
1898:
1899: o (Mar 8, 1999)
1900: Corrected src/Makefile.in to not use options.h anymore!
1901: Roman Shterenzon <roman@xpert.com> made me aware of this.
1902:
1903: 2a15
1904: ====
1905: Daniel
1906:
1907: o (Mar 5, 1999) Made "text" equal text/plain in content-type: header
1908: lines.
1909:
1910: o Removed options.h completely to reduce the number of mistakes from
1911: people trying to edit it!
1912:
1913: o (Mar 4, 1999) Applied Glen Stewart's patch to remove a few <li> tags.
1914:
1915: o Bailey, Raymond <bailey9@MARSHALL.EDU> pointed out a problem in the
1916: getname() function. When you got a mail with a From: line where there
1917: is a name within quotes that were "attached" to the email part without
1918: spaces in between as in "name"<email@email.com> the parser failed to
1919: get a name part of this and caused hypermail to dump core.
1920:
1921: o Alisdair Davey <ard@mithra.physics.montana.edu> Helped me point out
1922: a bug in mprintf.c. It made the *printf() routines fail on %.*s
1923: constructions. I am considering an upgrade of the mprintf stuff to
1924: my newer "trio" stuff...
1925:
1926: o Made %f insert the file name of the generated HTML file in headers
1927: and footers.
1928:
1929: 2a14 Pl 2
1930: =========
1931: Daniel
1932:
1933: o Removed a bug that occured when converting a mail into html that had
1934: a "in-relpy-to" header but the replied-to mail was not present in the
1935: mailbox.
1936:
1937: 2a14 Pl 1
1938: =========
1939: Daniel (now CVS'ed at cvs.hypermail.yeehaw.net:/cvs/hypermail)
1940:
1941: o Made it de-mime headers even without the mime-version: header present
1942:
1943:
1944: 2alpha14
1945: ========
1946: Daniel
1947:
1948: o It should now accept white space in the beginning of config file
1949: lines.
1950:
1951: o SetupCleanup() bugs somehow, I'm no longer using it == dirty fix.
1952:
1953: o Updated the "name/email" scanner.
1954:
1955: o Total mail counter was wrong when updating.
1956:
1957: o Renamed to alpha to avoid confusion.
1958:
1959: 2b13
1960: ====
1961: Daniel
1962:
1963: o Two corrections in the mprintf.c. One of them being serious
1964:
1965: o (parse.c) now the QP decoder accepts question marks in the encoded-words
1966:
1967: o Corrected the mprintf() replacement define in mprintf.h
1968:
1969: o Added some more missing free()s in print.c
1970:
1971: 2b12
1972: ====
1973:
1974: Daniel
1975:
1976: o Now strips trailing white spaces from values in the config file if
1977: written without quotes. Paradise Cowgirl <minerva@phix.com> reported.
1978:
1979: o List types in the config were insanely written and caused memory
1980: disaster at times. Byron C. Darrah <bdarr@sse.FU.HAC.COM> and
1981: Jenni Baier <jenni@renewed.net> both probably experienced this.
1982:
1983: o Decreased the amount of memory allocations used when building hash
1984: tables for index sorting. (see addhash() in struct.c)
1985:
1986: 2b11
1987: ====
1988:
1989: Daniel
1990:
1991: o Tom von Alten <alien@hpdmlad.boi.hp.com> pointed out a really nasty bug
1992: in fixreplyheader() I had introduced! :-(
1993:
1994: 2.0b10
1995: ======
1996:
1997: Daniel
1998:
1999: o %c is recognized and replaced with a charset tag in mail headers. It
2000: should be set as early as possible within the HEAD tag.
2001:
2002: o Saves <!-- charset=blablabla --> in articles.
2003:
2004: o dprintf() was not a successful name, Linux uses it for some odd purpose
2005: even in stdio.h! :-/ Renamed my line of functions to m*.
2006:
2007: o Adjusted getname() to be slightly smarter.
2008:
2009: o Started working at adding charset to each single mail. It should be stored
2010: per-mail basis now, even though it is never used anywhere... It should
2011: now make a proper META HTTP-EQUIV tag!
2012:
2013: 2.0b9
2014: =====
2015:
2016: Daniel
2017:
2018: o Added a new -o option that can set any config options on the command line.
2019: E.g set label with -o "label=my new label".
2020:
2021: o Major rewrites of struct.c. There were just too many functions that
2022: passed data between them by strcpy()ing them to char buffers. They now
2023: pass char pointers in a lot higher degree. In fact, there aren't that
2024: many strcpy()s left in the source now. Not that I notice any faster
2025: operations, I just know it is neater code.
2026:
2027: o I really don't like the way proto.h has *ALL* prototypes and therefore
2028: everything is dependent on that file. I've stared to slowly extract the
2029: protos for each .c file into its own .h file. This will allow me to
2030: change prototype for a single function without having to recompile the
2031: whole lot.
2032:
2033: o Added general "Re:" - awareness functions. isre() returns TRUE if the
2034: input string starts with a re-thing and findre() returns the position
2035: of the first instance of re in the input string, or NULL if there is
2036: none.
2037:
2038: It knows and recognizes "Re:", "Fw:" and "Re[<number>]:" strings. If we
2039: ever intend to support local variations of this, I've now made that
2040: easier...
2041:
2042: o The new getname() had problems with parens in the real name part when
2043: quoted. As in
2044: From: "Windle, Alan M. (PA62)" <test@site.com>
2045: It shouldn't be a problem now. It should also work with from-lines like:
2046: From: ("Windle, Alan M. (PA62)") test@site.com
2047:
2048: There might be an idea to simply ignore everything within that level of
2049: parentheses. I mean, not add that text to the name.
2050:
2051: o The sorted datelist was broken because I must've destroyed unre() when I
2052: turned it dynamic. I improved printsubjects() to deal with pointers and
2053: it now strcpy()s a lot less data.
2054:
2055: Did the same change to the printauthors() too.
2056:
2057: o increment and readone are now separate options. Read stdin or use mailbox
2058: are mutually exclusive but don't modify increment or readone. The
2059: previous system was very confusing and didn't allow e.g updating an
2060: archive with two mails passed on stdin!
2061:
2062: I've now tried to update an existing archive with 3 mails passed on stdin
2063: and it seemed to work. Works if read from a mailbox too. Even works with
2064: the new -1 flag (to indicate there's one mail only). It has an
2065: accompanying config file keyword named 'readone'. I think the new -v flag
2066: is really great for this, cause it shows all built-in variables and kind
2067: of automatically documents them!
2068:
2069: o Ok, I wasn't aware the config file did assume quotes around the strings.
2070: I've added support for that (too) now. Distributed this small change
2071: to Kent, Tom and John as a patch for 2b8.
2072:
2073: 2.0b8
2074: =====
2075:
2076: Daniel
2077:
2078: (Nov 24, 1998)
2079: o So, just before I was gonna announce the b7 to the guys I got another
2080: report from John Petrakis that pointed out two bugs. One bad free() which
2081: he identified and one From:-line that b7 couldn't get name and email from
2082: properly. I got really tired and rewrote the whole getname() function to
2083: work with all the combinations mentioned in the source, and more. I think
2084: this function also has another benefit: it is easier to read than the old
2085: one.
2086:
2087: o I found some other bugs with my new setup system which caused the
2088: hm_htmlbody = NONE to not work. I am actually against that a line that
2089: says NONE sets it to the default. NONE should be NONE, if the keyword
2090: isn't used at all it should use the default. Well well, one thing at a
2091: time I guess.
2092:
2093:
2094: 2.0b7
2095: =====
2096:
2097: Daniel (getting deeper and deeper into this now ;-)
2098:
2099: o Entirely new config file parser. Does make adding new config items a
2100: lot easier and smoother. Run hypermail -v to make it output a fully
2101: working config file (after reading the given input parameters).
2102:
2103: There is no need for the "hm_" prefix on keywords in the config file. You
2104: can still use it if you want, but you don't have to.
2105:
2106: Internally, all configurable variables are now named 'set_XXXXX' to better
2107: make it visible in the code.
2108:
2109: o readoldheaders() is a lot more robust now. The order of the variables are
2110: not set and empty files no longer cause it to dump core.
2111:
2112: o Hypermail from now on only stores the variables inside HTML files that
2113: are actually set. name="" is not needed to store.
2114:
2115: 2.0b6
2116: =====
2117:
2118: Daniel continues:
2119:
2120: o parseemail() and ConvURLs() needed to deal with NULLs better.
2121:
2122: o loadoldheaders() are no longer dependent on the order of the variables
2123: in previously written HTML files.
2124:
2125: o Mails with no subject confused the parser.c
2126:
2127: o Tom von Alten <Tom_vonAlten@boi.hp.com> sent me two files he appearantly
2128: got from Kent after the b4 he sent me. (date.c and msg2archive.c)
2129:
2130: o All kinds of lists like hm_show_headers, hm_inline_types and
2131: hm_ignore_types now offer the below mentioned wildcards.
2132:
2133: o Added dmatch.c for dos-style * and ? wildcard matching.
2134:
2135: o Cleaning up more memory leaks.
2136:
2137: 2.0b5 as sent to John Petrakis 19 Nov 1998
2138: ==========================================
2139:
2140: Daniel:
2141:
2142: o Added 'maketgz' to the archive. It is for creating release archives,
2143: without having to remove a lot of files first.
2144: * first asks for the version number of choice
2145: * uses the file FILES to know what files to include.
2146: * updates the patchlevel.h file to the entered version number
2147: * creates the archive with a directory based on the entered version number
2148: * names the archive based on the entered version number
2149:
2150: o Added a whole bunch of more free() calls.
2151:
2152: o Inlined HTML that was base64 or uuencoded were not previously dealt with
2153: properly.
2154:
2155: o Mails with no Message-Id: caused a crash in the hash function.
2156:
2157: o HM_INLINEHTML can now be set to 0 to prevent hypermail from inlining
2158: mail parts in HTML.
2159:
2160: 2.0b4 as sent to Tom von Alten Nov 19, 1998.
2161: ============================================
2162:
2163: Daniel:
2164:
2165: o Dynamic strings all over. I added a generic dynamic-string system which
2166: I think works pretty good. Using functions and macros it should also be
2167: pretty easy to extend, modify and optimize without any other source
2168: modifications.
2169:
2170: I had to modify stuff all over the place and pretty much too. I hope I've
2171: removed at least the worst uses of static buffers and my initial tests
2172: prove me right. No lenght limits of any fields of a mail is my goal, and
2173: I think it is a fair goal.
2174:
2175: Beware of leaking memory now though. We need to setup some debug-system
2176: to track them easily.
2177:
2178: The dynamic string routines could very well be optimized too.
2179:
2180: o My dsprintf system was added. This system offers snprintf() - sprintf with
2181: a buffer length parameter and aprintf() - returns an allocated string with
2182: the text. I did this to better deal with fully dynamic buffers.
2183:
2184: o Corrected the swedish texts. All 8bit letters were gone!
2185:
2186: o (Nov 16) I recevied the 981013-b4 version. Started work.
2187:
2188: 2.0b4
2189: ====================
2190:
2191: Kent:
2192:
2193: o Date routine corrections.
2194:
2195: - Y2K capable. Hypermail used a two digit representation
2196: for the year through out. It now uses a 4 digit representation.
2197:
2198: - In hypermail.h, October was listed in monthdays as only having
2199: 30 days.
2200:
2201: - hypermail did not deal with all the major date string formats.
2202: Date: formats starting with a digit (09 Sep 1998 01:27:30 +0300)
2203: would cause parsing and threading problems. It now supports
2204: that format.
2205:
2206: - Added code to deal correctly with two digit years.
2207: The idea as to how to approach this and the basis for
2208: the solution is thanks to Byron Darrah.
2209:
2210: - Corrected an off by one day error in getyearsecs(). It was
2211: adding the current day && adding the hours, minutes, and seconds
2212: for that day as well. It only needed to count all the days UP TO
2213: the current day and then add the hours, minutes, and seconds for
2214: the current day.
2215:
2216: - Incorrect data type passed to fprint_summary(), needed to be
2217: long instead of int.
2218:
2219: - Corrected an off by one day in getdatestr(). Days in a month
2220: start at 1, not 0.
2221:
2222:
2223: o Add the ability to save hypermail generated html files with any
2224: configurable html suffix such as ".htm", ".html" or ".shtml", etc.
2225: This works for the index files as well as the message files. (New
2226: .hmrc variable, hm_htmlsuffix, new environment variable HM_HTMLSUFFIX,
2227: and HTMLSUFFIX define in options.h.)
2228:
2229: o Removed a conditional "if (use_mbox) increment = 0;" that was
2230: preventing the ability to read one message from a file and update
2231: an existing archive and its indexes.
2232:
2233: o Corrected parseurl to allow for a ',' (comma) character to be embedded
2234: in the URL.
2235:
2236: o Corrected parseurl to allow for a '&' (ampersand) character to be embedded
2237: in the URL.
2238:
2239: o Using -p with -iu on a new archive directory caused a core dump
2240: begause 'bignum' was zero. Corrected to assure bignum > 0.
2241:
2242: o Added language abilities to hypermail.
2243: English - en
2244: Spanish - es
2245: German - de
2246: Swedish - se
2247: initially supported. (lang.c and lang.h added.)
2248:
2249: Thanks to Francisco Iacobelli <fiacobelli@ibersis.cl> for the
2250: "es" message table translation.
2251:
2252: Thanks to Martin Schulze <joey@kuolema.Infodrom.North.DE> for the
2253: "de" message table translation.
2254:
2255: Thanks to Daniel Stenberg <Daniel.Stenberg@sth.frontec.se> for the
2256: "se" message table translation.
2257:
2258: o Changed how error messages are displayed so options message
2259: only displayed where appropriate instead of for every message.
2260:
2261: o Corrected getname() to parse yet another funky name format.
2262:
2263: o Corrected printing error when a invalid domain was encountered in
2264: an email address.
2265:
2266: o Converted some static internal buffers to dynamically allocated ones
2267: at startup saving 6+K. Also resulted in setstrval() not being needed
2268: so it was removed.
2269:
2270: o Corrected MIME parsing problem with previously parsed headers.
2271:
2272: o Corrected default labeling problem with stdin generated archives
2273: when no label is supplied.
2274:
2275: o Fixed hypermail so it would not crash if started with no arguments
2276: and an article on stdin.
2277:
2278: o Added locking to the archive so that there is less chance of corruption
2279: of the archive due to multiple copies of hypermail trying to update
2280: the same archive at the same time with multiple messages. This could
2281: be improved so as to check for pid of process that owns it...
2282:
2283: o Extended the configure support.
2284:
2285: o Extended the use of hm_progress so that more information about
2286: attachment files can be displayed.
2287:
2288: o Updated documentation to reflect changes
2289:
2290: o Corrected getname to deal with names that are all spaces.
2291:
2292: o Corrected configuration variable setting. Moved checks to the
2293: right place in the code.
2294:
2295: o Hypermail now supports listproc mailboxes as well as general Unix
2296: formated mailboxes. It does not require that a blank line exists
2297: between mail messsages in a mailbox. Thanks to Craig A Summerhill
2298: <craig@cni.org> for the push and the test data.
2299:
2300: 2.0b3 - 8/15/98
2301: =================
2302:
2303: o Added validation of domains so that the generation of mailto: is
2304: much more accurate than the previous method.
2305:
2306: o Added support for Content-Disposition MIME Header so as to get the
2307: filename from the header.
2308:
2309: o Added verification of filenames to assure they are safe to use and
2310: will not cause filesystem problems
2311:
2312: o Fixed a problem with parsing the ending MIME boundary (it expended headers
2313: following that)
2314:
2315: o Found and removed a one-byte buffer overflow in the line continuation code.
2316:
2317: o Corrected docs/hypermail.1 and TODO to reflect the proper RFC 822
2318: parsing was actually included in version 2.0b1
2319:
2320: o Corrected a typo in string.c that prevented the proper generation
2321: of mailto: links for email names with numbers [0-9] in them.
2322:
2323: o Corrected the base64 decoder error which caused files to get an
2324: extra zero-byte appended at times. (When storing attachments to disk.)
2325:
2326: o Added additional ported systems to the README
2327:
2328: o Removed the "#ifndef" from the defines in options.h. We do not want to
2329: inherit any define values from other places. If there are confilcts
2330: then I need to correct them. Inheriting defines can lead to unforeseen
2331: results.
2332:
2333: o attachments:
2334: - comments are now generated in the output mail for each attachment
2335: that is written in a separate file. The comment looks like:
2336: '<!-- attachment="filename" -->' in the standard comment style.
2337:
2338: o buffers and overflows
2339: - mdecodeRFC2047() now has an output buffer size argument
2340: - had to remove the use of rmcr() at two places, since that function uses
2341: a very strict static buffer limiting the maximum line length pretty bad.
2342: - parseurl() now features an output buffer size argument
2343: - parseemail() now features an output buffer size argument
2344:
2345: o multipart/alternative
2346: - added awareness and parser "intelligence" to pick the last prefered
2347: content-type within a series of alternatives (as MIME tells us to
2348: do). This has not yet been very thoroughly tested.
2349: - added the preferedcontent() function that returns wether a content-type
2350: is prefered or not (as set with hm_prefered_types). Default prefered
2351: type is 'text/plain' (if hm_prefered_types is unused).
2352:
2353: o output
2354: - added the experiment function printhtml(). It strips off unwanted html
2355: tags from the output, even if they are used in attached HTML files. I.e
2356: <HTML> and </HTML>.
2357: - made 'showheaders' not use <BR> or newlines since the BRs are ignored
2358: anyway, and the newlines are already present in each header line.
2359: - added 'hm_show_headers' which is a list of what headers to include when
2360: the 'showheaders' option is used. For now, it also controls which
2361: headers to show when attached mails are shown. Although I can imagine
2362: that you'd like separate lists (since for attached mails, you'd like i.e
2363: subject which you may not need for the main mail itself). If
2364: 'hm_show_headers' isn't used, all headers will be shown.
2365: - made the <PRE> system in the printbody() function a little smarter, and
2366: now it prevents multiple </PRE> and <P> tags better. It did however
2367: introduce another side effect (although a less serious one imho) and
2368: that is an extra pair of <PRE></PRE> after the last attachment when
2369: using 'showhtml'.
2370:
2371: o parsing
2372: - made the multi-line merger function to make all lines get a regular
2373: white space between them when they're put together. Previously, this
2374: character was left as-is, which could be a space or a tab (or any other
2375: isspace()) letter.
2376: - check changed to check for "<!-- received" as the start of parsing
2377: previous html files in the event that the archive maintainer whishes
2378: to add comments in the header template HTML files.
2379: - in_list() now checks for list items case insensitive
2380: - corrected so Message-ID:, References and Supersedes: lines are not
2381: converted into mailto: URLs.
2382: - corrected off-by-one in isquote that was causing array boundary read
2383: errors.
2384: - corrected off-by-one in printbody line output that was causing array
2385: boundary read errors.
2386:
2387: Real thanks are in order for Daniel Stenberg and David D. Kilzer. They helped
2388: greatly with making this release possible by sending in enhancements, comments
2389: and bug fixes. Thanks Guys!
2390:
2391: 2.0b2 - 6/07/98
2392: =================
2393:
2394: o Corrected command line processing for individual messages received
2395: on standard input.
2396:
2397: o Corrected formating of Next message links when incremental updating
2398: is done.
2399:
2400: o Corrected the template filenames in docs/hmrc.html. Added "file"
2401: to them.
2402:
2403: o Added additional systems to the list of ported systems.
2404:
2405: o Reset certain options back to the proper defaults.
2406:
2407: o Corrected problem in printbody in regards to printing HTML embedded
2408: in a message. Still work to do here.
2409:
2410: o Changed address options to assure I didn't get landfield.com
2411: information inadvertantly set in hundreds of archives because
2412: the admins just took the defaults. ;)
2413:
2414: 2.0b1 6/05/98 - Kent Landfield
2415: ===============================
2416:
2417: WARNING: There have been too many changes to this version to list them
2418: all here. What appears below are some of the highlights.
2419:
2420: o Command line settings override what is in the config file. In the
2421: past the command line variables were read and set before the config
2422: file was read. (Needed to get the name of the config file from the
2423: command line.) This made it hard to have a default list configuration
2424: file and make single runs with only one variable changed. Now processing
2425: sets the hypermail internal options by:
2426:
2427: Using Compiled in defaults specified in options.h,
2428: then reads Hypermail Environment variables if set,
2429: then looks for and reads any Configuration file specified
2430: and finally uses the Command line settings specified by the user.
2431:
2432: NOTE: THIS IS DIFFERENT THAN PAST HYPERMAIL USAGE.
2433:
2434: o Configurable Setting (.hmrc file) or Compile Time Variable to
2435: Domain-ize Addresses -- addresses appearing in the RFC822 field
2436: which lack hostname can't be made into proper HREFs when Hypermail
2437: does it's thing. They are coded with: mailto:(no%20email)
2438:
2439: Because the MTA resides on the same host as the list, it is
2440: often not require to domain-ize these addresses for delivery.
2441: In such cases, I think it would nice if Hypermail could be
2442: programmed to output: mailto:kent@landfield.com instead.
2443: This would probably work well as a *required* definition
2444: during compilation; however, it should not simply rely on
2445: the output from `hostname` in case you want to override with
2446: an MX entry or alternate domain (if you run virtual domains)
2447:
2448: o Added capability to have customizable index html headers, message
2449: html headers and html footers. Able to use substitution cookies in
2450: the header and footer template files.
2451:
2452: Substitution cookies supported:
2453:
2454: %% - '%' character
2455: %~ - storage directory
2456: %e - email addr of message author - Not valid on index pages
2457: %h - HMURL
2458: %i - Message-id - Not valid on index pages
2459: %l - archive label
2460: %m - Mailto address
2461: %p - PROGNAME
2462: %s - Subject of message or Index Title
2463: %v - VERSION
2464: %u - Expanded version link (HMURL,PROGNAME,VERSION)
2465: \n - newline character
2466: \t - tab character
2467:
2468: Additional cookies generate the complete META lines:
2469:
2470: %A - Author META HTML - Not valid on index pages
2471: <META NAME="Author" CONTENT="name (email)">
2472: %B - <BODY> html statement
2473: %S - Subject META TAG - Not valid on index pages
2474: <META NAME="Subject" CONTENT="subject">
2475:
2476: o Generates META tags in articles Author and Subject.
2477:
2478: o Now uses "configure" to generate the makefiles. This is rather
2479: weak at present and needs to be added to/tested on other systems
2480: but at least it's a start.
2481:
2482: o The config.h was renamed to options.h to support configure usage.
2483:
2484: o patchlevel.h added to facilitate better patches in the future. Still
2485: need to fully integrate it's useage in version displays.
2486:
2487: o Added example .rc files to show how to customize list's and their
2488: looks.
2489:
2490: o Removed the _print.c files that had existed in the 103b2 release and
2491: replaced them with template headers/footer files.
2492:
2493: o Extended archive path creation to make missing directories.
2494:
2495: o Added capabilities dir pathing to allow archive creation by date
2496: variables.
2497:
2498: %d - two digit day of month (1-28/30/31)
2499: %D - three letter day of the week
2500: %m - two digit month of year (1-12)
2501: %M - three letter month of year (Jan, Feb, ..., Dec)
2502: %y - four digit year (1990,..2001)
2503:
2504: RC example: hm_dir = /some/archive/listname/%y/%M
2505: ENV example: HM_DIR=/some/archive/listname/%y/%M
2506: Command line example: -d /some/archive/listname/%y/%M
2507:
2508: Expands to: /some/archive/listname/1998/May
2509:
2510: All files would be archived during that run in that directory.
2511: Subsequent executions will put the messages in the directories
2512: according to the date the messages were received on the archive
2513: site.
2514:
2515: o All "mailto:" links can include the "subject" so that the Subject:
2516: line of netscape mailer is automatically filled in.
2517:
2518: o Fixed "Re:" and redundant "Re:" variation && MS FW...
2519:
2520: o Greatly enhanced getname() to correctly deal with most all email
2521: addresses. X.400 addresses are not well supported yet.
2522:
2523: o Corrected getreply() to better support the In-Reply-To: formats. The
2524: routine needs to revisited when a readline routine is inserted to
2525: properly deal with continuation lines.
2526:
2527: o Added additional documentation describing the Hypermail configuration
2528: file.
2529:
2530: o Added additional documentation describing how to customize HTML
2531: generated pages.
2532:
2533: o Corrected many petty problems such as:
2534: - recursive '%' substitution. A % in a subject line could cause
2535: an ugly recursion problem in a mail command expansion.
2536: - title length problem. Length of a title needs to be limited to
2537: less than 64 characters as indicated by HTML specs.
2538: - Weblinted the generated output and corrected various things.
2539: - Removed unused and unneeded variables
2540:
2541: o Change various storage length defines in hypermail.h

2555:
2556: Patches Contributed By: Byron Darrah <bdarr@sed.hac.com>
2557: ----------------------------------------------------------
2558:
2559: o Added a menu bar for a header and footer on all pages and removed
2560: the bulleted list items that it replaces.
2561:
2562: o Reworked the general appearance of header and footer parts of html pages.

2571: Patches Contributed From: Jared Reisinger <feety@hhhh.org>
2572: ---------------------------------------------------------
2573:
2574: o Fixed configfile substring problem.
2575:
2576: o SHOWBR, IQUOTES, SHOWHR, EURODATE, SHOWREPLIES, and MAILCOMMAND
2577: now run-time configurable.
2578:
2579: o Fixed post leap-day error.
2580:
2581: o More robust Message-ID parsing.
2582:
2583: o Better SHOWHTML handling for indented lines.
2584:
2585: o Allow IQUOTES when not using SHOWHTML.
2586:
2587: Patches Contributed From: Daniel Stenberg <Daniel.Stenberg@sth.frontec.se>
2588: --------------------------------------------------------------------------
2589:
2590: o I had all calls to the decodeRFC2047() function moved to *after* the
2591: merging of long lines.
2592:
2593: o decodeRFC2047() now correctly concatenates two succeeding "encoded words".
2594: I now call the function mdecodeRfc2047() since it now allocates the new
2595: string.
2596:
2597: o Now informs if the attachment wasn't properly decoded when stored to disk.
2598: This happens if the Content-Transfer-Encoding specified isn't known to
2599: the parser. When this happens, the attachment is stored as 8bit octet-
2600: stream.
2601:
2602: o Now supports the encoding type 'x-uue' for uudecoding. I think there are
2603: mailers that use different names for the same encoding type so we better
2604: watch out for them in the future...
2605:
2606: o Added the 'demimed' field to the body struct to keep track of
2607: header lines+ that have been RFC2047 converted already.
2608:
2609: o Kent Landfield sent me an interesting mail that showed me several weird
2610: bugs in the MIME area.
2611: A. The Quoted-Printable decoder bugged. A quick fix solved that.
2612: B. The quoted printable decoder didn't support unlimited size of the line
2613: the encoded text decodes into. I wrote a new function that seems to do
2614: it properly.
2615: C. Some important headers were not properly supported if they were split
2616: up on several lines. I had to rewrite the header parsing system to make
2617: this work. It now scans all headers and concatenate them into single
2618: lines before any function is trying to parse or decode them.
2619: D. It also showed a need for a uudecoder for the 'x-uue' encode type. This
2620: is only noted for the future as I haven't written any decoder for this
2621: format [yet].
2622:
2623: o decodeRFC2047 replaces the former RFC1522 function. I made it support
2624: 'encoded-words' anywhere in the line and several different ones on the
2625: same line is now supported. The only flaw I'm still aware of now, is that
2626: if there are two encoded-words next to each other, the result should not
2627: show the spaces between them. My function unfortunately still does.
2628:
2629: o renamed decodeRFC1522 to decodeRFC2045.
2630:
2631: o decodeRFC1522 (quoted printable header decoding) didn't do well if the
2632: ending ?= sequence was in the middle of the line. I think this function
2633: will need more extensive testing.
2634:
2635: o Attached mails' headers (To:, From:, Date: and Subject:) are now shown
2636: in the html.
2637:
2638: o Attached mails that contains attachments did force me to add a stack system
2639: for the multipart boundary strings. Seems to work now. (Can't wait to see
2640: an attached mail that contains an attached mail that contains ... )
2641:
2642: o strcpymax() introduced to prevent buffer overflows on extra-long headers
2643:
2644: o Lines starting with 'from ' messed up the parser pretty badly. It now
2645: checks for 'From ' lines (case sensitive) with an empty preceding line
2646: to split mails.
2647:
2648: o Now extracts attachments to separate binary files.
2649:
2650: o Supports multiple lined headers.
2651:
2652: o Supports quoted-printable and base64 encoded headers.
2653:
2654: o Supports base64 encoded text/plain
2655:
2656: o Rewrote the URL and email parsing to allow multiple URLs and email
2657: addresses on each line.
2658:
2659: o Extended the original functionality to much better deal with MIMEd
2660: mails and the standards from RFC 1521 and 1522. There are still flaws in
2661: compliance with those but the majority of all mails using mimed texts
2662: will be presented in a fairly decent fashion.
2663:
2664: Patches Contributed From: David D Kilzer <ddkilzer@ti.com>
2665: -----------------------------------------------------------
2666:
2667: o Fixed problem with 'From: ' header lines in messages with the
2668: following format: "From: <email@address.com>" wherein the "name"
2669: from the previous email message would be used instead of reverting
2670: to the address itself.
2671:
2672: o URLs can now include ampersands (&) if they are preceded by question
2673: marks (?) in the URL string.
2674:
2675: o Email messages with no Subject line no longer grab the previous
2676: email's subject.
2677:
2678: o Reworked the order of output so that "message" links are always at
2679: the top of the page in article pages and date/thread/subject/author
2680: pages.
2681:
2682: o Now escape '%' in mail URLs.
2683:
2684: o Escape for '+' was wrong, changed to '%2B' (was '%22').
2685:
2686: o Updated replace() function to recurse on 'afterstring' variable
2687: rather than the whole 'newstring'. More efficient and allows '%'
2688: escaping.
2689:
2690: o config.h: Added configuration option for SHOW_MESSAGE_LINKS which
2691: turns all message headers and footers off (except for the links to
2692: the date, subject, thread and author pages). SHOW_MESSAGE_LINKS
2693: overrides the setting of SHOWREPLIES.
2694:
2695: o print.c (writearticles): Removed use of currentemail, currentid,
2696: and currentsubject by forcing use of email2, msgid2, inreply2,
2697: subject2, and name2 when calling struct.c (hashreplylookup). This
2698: was needed after I rearranged the order in which articles were
2699: printed.
2700:
2701: o string.c (convurls): Added code in two locations for the
2702: Message-Id code segment to recurse on the remaining portion of the
2703: line being processed. Each Message-Id found forces a return from
2704: convurls() after a recursive call. This prevents infinite recursion
2705: (a Bad Thing generally speaking). Note: we assume that Message-Ids
2706: and URLs/email addresses do NOT appear in the same line.
2707:
2708: o string.c (convurls): Changed format string from "%.3d" to "%.4d".
2709: Fixed major bug in outputting links for Message-Ids.
2710:
2711: o string.c (convurls): Fixed assumption in code for identifying
2712: Message-Ids that there was only one Message-Id per line. We now
2713: stop gobbling up text used for a link with a space (' ') or a tab
2714: ('\t').
2715:
2716: o string.c (convurls): Added int got_question_mark in URL processing
2717: code to permit an ampersand ('&') in a URL provided it comes after a
2718: question mark in the same URL (a GET method with POST data). Added
2719: one line of code and changed another to accomplish this.
2720:
2721: o string.c (convurls): Added code to check whether the next item to
2722: URL-ize is an email address (containing an at sign, '@'). If it is,
2723: we break out of the URL for loop and go process the email address.
2724:
2725: o parse.c (loadoldheaders): Modified initial fgets() call to skip any
2726: non-comment lines (i.e. "<html>" and "<head>").
2727:
2728: o string.c (makemailcommand): Added code to escape percent signs
2729: ('%') when escaping spaces (' ') and plus signs ('+'). Percent
2730: signs must be escaped first since other escape sequences use the
2731: percent sign followed by a two-digit hexadecimal number. We're now
2732: a little more MIME-compliant.
2733:
2734: o string.c (replace): Changed the replace() function to recurse only
2735: on the 'afterstring' portion of the URL instead of the whole rebuilt
2736: URL. This is both more efficient and prevents infinite recursion
2737: problems when escaping percent signs ('%') with '%25'.
2738:
2739: o string.c (makemailcommand): Fixed escape sequence for plus signs
2740: ('+') from '%22' to '%2B'.
2741:
2742: LOTS of other small patches from lots of other helpful people. I hope to
2743: be able to more accurately list them in the final 2.0 version.
2744:
