What's new in this release
Sun May 9 15:48:20 1999 Shigeya Suzuki
o Now using mimekit (by <[email protected]>) to decode/encode subject before
applying subject sustitution. To use this facility,
1) grab mimekit-1.8, which is in 'DeleGate' kit
(under directory name 'mimekit')
DeleGate is available at ETL server. check following web page:
http://wall.etl.go.jp/delegate/
2) extract DeleGate archive, go in 'mimekit' directory, then
run 'make.' It will crate 'libmimekit.a' and several executables.
Distribute only need libmimekit.a file.
3) Install libmimekit.a to /usr/local/lib. don't forget
'ranlib' if necessary. You can optionally change Makefile to
point to DeleGate source tree.
then, make as usual.
next patchlevel of distribute will use 'configure', so you don't
need to change Makefile.
put '-w' option turns on/off the mimekit. currently default ON, so,
it will turn off if you give '-w.'
o -c option added. If you set this, only subscriber address in the
recipient list can post to list.
o LOTS of bugfix in argument parsing, etc.
o some cosmetic changes.
<< To Be Written More in netxt patchlevel >>
Thanks to:
Hidekazu Nakamura <[email protected]>

** Makefile Change
STRSEP_MISSING added. Please define this if your platform doesnot
have strsep function. (available on BSDs)
Accept addr list is now working fine. (.acc file)
(thanks to Aplix people.) And fixed some of administrative
forwarding functionality.
Now have reject list, which may contain which address should
be rejected on submission. (.rej file) (from [email protected])
-M option behavor fix
8th bit strip bug in euc_to_iso2022jp fixed.
X-Reference patch (from [email protected])
Solaris patch.
Better '-s' option hack.
Some prototyping hack.
Purify tested.

** Makefile Change
CCMAIL added. (see cc:Mail hack section for detail.)
** cc:Mail hack
If you turn CCMAIL flag in Makefile on, special cc:Mail
SMTPLINK hack added. Since cc:Mail SMTPLINK don't handle
Errors-To: correctly, it may cause mailing list loop, which we
don't want.
Thanks to <[email protected]> for providing this hack.
** Bug Fixes
Now correctly strip un-balanced pair of parnes in subject.
which may cause distribute to hang.
tmpl2pl now work fine with perl 5.
now write INDEX file before archive run..

** Makefile Change
Changed Makefile to set owner/group/mode. current mode using
is 4755. Please be careful.
DEF_DOMAINNAME added. It's compile-in default value for -h option.
This will reduce options in command line.
DEF_ALIAS_CHAR_OPTION added: you can specify default value for
-B option by this.
** Reply-to Handling
Now, -r <reply-to> option only add Reply-To header if no
such exists.
By -i -r <reply-to> option work same as previous version.
(Delete Reply-To before add)
** End of header checking method changed.
In previous versions, LCWS-char + CR Line treated as
end of header component. In this version, such lines are ignored
and the line only with CRLF treated as end of header.
(per RFC822)
Also, we do not treat FORM FEED as LCWS-char. (per RC822)

** alias brackets
Now you can change parens to brackets or whatever you want.
-Bp or -BP paren (MailingList number) default
-Ba or -BA angle bracket <MailingList number>
-Bc or -BC curly bracket {MailingList number}
-Bb or -BB bracket [MailingList number]
or, you can supply by your self:
-B+- +MailingList number-
But: 1. be careful about quoting
2. you have to choose differnt character for open/close.
** default path
If the -L/-I option's accompanied filename is not absolute path,
compiled-in default path is attached in front of filename.
edit Makefile for this.
** -M/-N options for easy administration
-M/-N simplify the lines in alias file. For example, in alias file:
>>>>
disttest-request: shigeya
disttest: "|/usr/lib/distribute -M disttest"
owner-disttest: shigeya
<<<<
-M is same as:
-e -a disttest -r disttest -I disttest.seq -L disttest.rec
-N is same as:
-e -a disttest -I disttest.seq -L disttest.rec
Note ".seq" and ".rec" suffixes added.
".seq" and ".rec" are compile time configuration option (see Makefile)
** Limit of argument passed to sendmail
With -L option, there was limit of about 10K bytes for
space separated recipient list. We removed this restriction,
but you may have trouble if your OS does not support more than
10K of argument list. (check NCARGS in sys/params.h, etc.)
In SunOS, the max number of characters for argument list is
1M bytes, so no problem.
