SASL should now be integrated into nmh correctly
Howdy. I just integrated a final patch from Ken Hornstein for the SASL stuff, which still hadn't been integrated properly. So if anyone had tried to play with it and had found it non-working, you can try again. I plan to install sendmail 8.11.0 on one of my machines soon and look forward to trying it out. --- Dan Harkless | To prevent SPAM contamination, please [EMAIL PROTECTED] | do not post this private email address SpeedGate Communications, Inc. | to the USENET or WWW.

Re: SASL autoconf problem

I need this functionality for my environment, where we have identical /usr/local on all my machines (so I cannot just hardcode into the mts.conf file), and I have multiple POP mail servers for my users. It's pretty straightforward... Thanks, Kurt. I applied your patch. I rewrote the inc.man change, though: above.

Sorry for the delayed response (nmh was in a non-compilable state last time I tried to check this out). I confirmed that nmh-1.0.4 on Solaris seg faults on that mail. nmh-1.0.4+dev, with its rewritten date parser, however, does not, so it looks like the bug is already fixed. Thanks for the report. We'll have to try to get out an nmh 1.0.5 / 1.1 before too long. (In the meantime, you can get nmh-1.0.4+dev via anonymous CVS if you like.) --- Dan Harkless | To prevent SPAM contamination, please [EMAIL PROTECTED] | do not post this private email address SpeedGate Communications, Inc. | to the USENET or WWW.
