This is Official Patch #3 for Mush 7.2.  As usual, complete sources for
Mush (already including the changes in this patch) can be obtained via
anonymous ftp from:

                  cse.ogi.edu:pub/mush/mush-7.2.tar.Z

Mush 7.2 was recently posted to comp.sources.misc at patchlevel 2.
This patch and any future patches will be made available for ftp from
cse.ogi.edu, or you can send E-mail to me:

                         schaefer@cse.ogi.edu

Include in your message a line of the form

@PATCH patch-number path-from-ogicse-to-you

where patch-number is the number of the patch you need (digit, 1 or 2)
and path-from-ogicse-to-you is either your Internet domain address or
a UUCP path from site ogicse to you at your site.  There continue to
be sendmail configuration problems at ogicse so please do not use mixed
UUCP and Internet addresses and do not use domain names (with `.'s) in
UUCP paths.  Ogicse does do UUCP map lookups now, so user@site.UUCP will
often work if your site is registered.  If you don't get your patches
in 2 or 3 days, try again, but use a different path.

You may include one @PATCH line for each patch you need.

You can also recieve a complete set of sources by E-mail by including
a line of the form

@MUSH path-from-ogicse-to-you

where path-from-ogicse-to-you is as above.  You need not request both
source and patches; the source you receive will include all current
patches.  Sources are shipped as a 10-part compressed tar file, encoded
for mailing with the "btoa" utility.  You will receive instructions
explaining how to unpack the tar file in a separate message.

[ftp by mail instructions deleted.]

Other information, plus questions and answers, on mush and mush patches
is available from the mush-users mailing list, which is gatewayed in
both directions with newsgroup comp.mail.mush.  The list currently
resides at mush-users@apple.com.  Requests to be added to or deleted
from the list should be sent to mush-users-request@apple.com

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.
