the scripts/ directory, it will be run automatically as part of
the build process, by bsd.pkg.mk. There are now exactly 5 packages
in pkgsrc which use this facility, and yet, for every package build,
the existence of a script is checked by bsd.pkg.mk once before the
target is executed, and once afterwards. This incurs needless
overhead.
Move the separate pre- and post- script handling out of bsd.pkg.mk into
the individual package Makefiles, where it's much more obvious what is
happening, anyway.

. Description:
Added credits for Manoj Srivastava, the Debian packager, for
his wonderful work.
Added two variables: domain and hidenet, in order to address
the Debian bug #72737. The values hardwired at Configure time
in mailagent are now used only up to the moment where we have
parsed the user configuration.
Forgot to increment buf in pool_read(), in the C filter.
This was an important bug, which had never hit me however.
I noticed it by looking a the Debian patches.
Use the "email" config var verbatim in FORWARD. It used to
determine the Resent-From: by constructing a full email address,
but this is wrong. We should use whatever the user said, and
it is up to MTAs to fix the address should it be unqualified.
Removed unused var in POST.
Fixed longstanding lie in man; "To: gue@eiffel.fr" now works
as advertised in the man page. It also means you can write:
To Cc: user@example.com
instead of the heavier:
To Cc: /^user@example\.com$/
However, if you wish to use more complex patterns, you still
have to use the /^/ anchored form.
Create a new filter/address test to test various matching
patterns on address selectors.
Try to run tests as nobody when super-user -- from Debian.
Fixed test rules for UNIQUE, removing spurious REJECT -f. The
error present in the man page had also propagated to the test
cases.

variables: domain and hidenet.

vars. Changed email_addr() and domain_addr() to honour new config
vars.

hidenet. Various fixes from bug reports on Debian.
* agent/pl/actions.pl: Use the "email" config var verbatim in
FORWARD. Removed unused var in POST.
* agent/pl/builtins.pl: Hostname computed via domain_addr() to honour
hidenet.
* agent/pl/matching.pl: Fixed longstanding lie in man; "To:
gue@eiffel.fr" now works.
* agent/pl/parse.pl: Use the "domain" config var instead of mydomain.
* agent/pl/read_conf.pl: Computes suitable defaults for new "domain"
and "hidenet".
* agent/pl/rfc822.pl: Use "domain" config var instead of mydomain.
* agent/test/TEST: Try to run tests as nobody when super-user -- from
Debian.
* agent/test/actions: Fixed test rules for UNIQUE, removing spurious
REJECT -f.
* agent/test/filter/address.t: Created.
* agent/test/filter/list.t: Unlink files we expect to be created
before running command.
* agent/test/rules: Added new filter/address tests.

. Description:
Made fixup of header fields in POST be a warning in the
logs, instead of a mere notice.
Added fix for broken continuations in parse_mail(). I have
started receiving messages with invalid header continuations,
and this led to failure in POST: the remote news server is
much more strict on headers than mail agents.
Fixed RESYNC, copied continuation fix from parse_mail().
Added support for SUBST/TR on mail headers: it is now possible
to say something like:
SUBST Subject: /foo/bar/g;
to alter header field in place. See the updated manual page
for details.
Added rule to suppress () and {} in message ids, since again
it led to failures when using POST.
Added test cases for SUBST/TR on header fields.
The newsgate program now computes the In-Reply-To field via a
regexp instead of a split on References to cope with bad
References line that dont have a space between message ids.
. Files changed:
* agent/man/mailagent.SH: Documented SUBST/TR on header fields.
* agent/pl/actions.pl: Made fixup of header fields in POST be a
warning. Fixed RESYNC, copied continuation fix from parse_mail().
Added support for SUBST/TR on mail headers.
* agent/pl/filter.pl: Changed SUBST/TR parameter parsing to support
header fields.
* agent/pl/header.pl: Added rule to suppress () and {} in message ids.
* agent/pl/history.pl: Message ids are now cleaned-up via
msgid_cleanup().
* agent/pl/parse.pl: Added fix for broken continuations in
parse_mail().
* agent/test/actions: Added test cases for SUBST/TR on header fields.
* agent/test/cmd/subst.t: Added test cases for SUBST on header fields.
* agent/test/cmd/tr.t: Added test cases for TR on header fields.
* misc/news/ml.map: Typo fixes in leading comment.
* misc/news/newsgate: The in-reply-to field is now computed via a
regexp.

. Description:
Updated date in README and my e-mail address.
Documented my CPAN directory URL in agent/README.
Compilation bug fixes in filter:
. switched to dynamic init of standard file array for GNU libc
. fixed incorrect selection of sys_errlist[]
Changed semantics of "tome": the '.' and '_' in names is no
longer stripped. If your full name was, say, raphael_manfredi,
then you could set "tome: manfredi" and it worked. The heuristics
were bad, and it prevented doing useful things. Let's drop
support for that and see if anyone complains. ;-)
Updated POST to current practices. In particular, it has been
tested to establish a mail -> news gateway with INN 1.7.2.
POST also support a new "-b" switch to cause article biffing, just
like saving in a folder triggers mail biffing.
The following new features are available in POST:
. fix lines like From: A.B <a@b> into From: "A.B" <a@b>
. remove duplicate Content-Transfer-Encoding and other MIME headers
. generate proper References: line and fixes bad Message-ID lines.
. fix date if too old or too far in the future
In the new misc/news directory, you'll find a program and instruction
to setup a news -> mail gateway (tested with INN 1.7.2), thereby
making it possible to build a bi-directional mail <=> news gateway
with mailagent.
Fixed wrong lexical attribute synthesis for numbers during date
parsing, which cause 08 and 09 to not parse at all.
Fixed sed command that produced bad dependencies on linux in the
agent/pl/utmp directory.
Fixed dates for the SELECT test to avoid failures past year 2001.
. Files changed:
* agent/filter/io.c: Switched to dynamic init of standard file array
for GNU libc.
* agent/filter/logfile.c: Fixed incorrect selection of sys_errlist[].
* agent/man/mailagent.SH: Changed semantics of "tome". Updated POST
to current practices. Documented biffing macros for news article.
* agent/pl/actions.pl: Replaced calls to fake_date() by mta_date().
Rewrote the POST command, and added the -b switch.
* agent/pl/biff.pl: Added support for news article biffing.
* agent/pl/getdate.pl: Fixed wrong lexical attribute synthesis for
numbers.
* agent/pl/header.pl: New mta_date() routine replaces old
fake_date(). Added msgid_cleanup() and parsedate() routines.
* agent/pl/parse.pl: Allow direct IP numbers in Received fields.
* agent/pl/period.pl: Added relative_age().
* agent/pl/rfc822.pl: Dropped support of '_' and '.' stripping in
last_name(). Added gen_message_id().
* agent/pl/runcmd.pl: New -b switch for POST to request biffing.
* agent/test/actions: Fixed dates for the SELECT test to avoid
failures past 2001.
* agent/test/cmd/vacation.t: Changed "tome" settings due to dropping
of dot stripping.
* misc/news/newsgate, misc/news/ml.map: Created.
