mush-7.2.3.tar.Z - Package description:
Contained is the source for "Mail User's Shell" (MUSH), a "Mail User
Agent" (MUA) that is designed to manage electronic mail on most UNIX
systems. That is, mush is used by users to read mail, sort it, edit
it, delete it, or use it to act as an interface to send mail to others.
A Mail Transport Agent (MTA) is the program which mush communicates with
that actually -delivers- mail.
Mush runs on various flavors of unix. To build mush, you should identify
which unix you are running:
Sun (all versions from 2.0 and higher).
BSD (versions 4.2 and up)
System-V / Version 7 / System III (Bell Labs)
Xenix (this might be tricky)
Bug fixes in this patch:
* The user's real name ($realname) is no longer left empty.
* REGCMP users (mostly SysV) no longer get core dumps when using pick.
* Attempts to send mail (e.g. via Fcc: headers) to the same file or
folder more than once *silently* sends only one copy to the file.
(Before, it complained about not being able to write to the file
for the second and later attempts.)
* SCO UNIX 3.2 users who are having problems with "submit" can now
define M_EXECMAIL to use execmail as their interface to MMDF. This
has the pleasant side-effect of making the MTA invocation compatible
with sendmail, so resetting the variable "sendmail" works cleanly.
* Problems with file locking and lock.c typos for SCO UNIX have been
corrected (we hope).
* SCO UNIX correctly includes <sys/select.h> (we hope).
* Attempts to load folders containing more than the defined maximum
number of messages work a bit better. You still can't load all the
messages, but the results are less strange.
* Some <curses.h> macro name clashes for unusual UNIXen have been
forcibly suppressed.
* An amazingly old string overflow bug in toolmode has been fixed.
