ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS for MHonArc

<URL:http://www.oac.uci.edu/indiv/ehood/mhonarc.html>

I would like to thank everyone who has given feedback on MHonArc.
Sorry for not listing everyone, but it has become too hard to keep
track of all the names. However, I'd like to give special thanks to
the following:

A. P. Barrett <[email protected]>
For developing a base64 library. The library has been adapted
to decode base64 messages by MHonArc.

Susie Blackstock <[email protected]>
For helping me with the documentation. Any problems with the
documentation is purely my fault.

Achim Bohnet <[email protected]>
For his help in testing, and contributing to, mhonarc and for
setting up the mhonarc mailing list.

Roman Czyborra <[email protected]>
For his help with the MosaicMail script.

Timothy Finin <[email protected]>
Whose initial feedback on mbox2html (my first mail->HTML
program) caused the ball rolling on developing a more complete
mail-to-HTML program.

Ken Harward <[email protected]>
For helping me tackle Perl problems and for bouncing ideas
off.

Phyllis Imperatrice <mymom@home>
For the initial sketch of the MHonArc logo.

Steve Pacenka <[email protected]>
For his great help in getting MHonArc to run under MS-DOS, and
for his help in trouble-shooting.

NIIBE Yutaka <[email protected]>
For the contribution of a text/plain filter to process
ISO-2022 encoded mail messages (ie. Japanese character set).

Bug History for MHonArc

Each bug listing has the following fields:

Version: Lists the version of MHonArc that the bug was
reported against.
Problem: A description of the bug.
Solution: A description of what was done to fix the bug.
Version Fixed: The version that the solution exists in, if
applicable.


Bug List
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0
Problem: Bogus empty entry shows up in the database. Bogus
entry appears if a duplicate message is detected.
Potential visible problems of bogus entry are: mailto
links in headers corrupted; a blank listing in the
index. Maybe other potential problems.
Solution: There is a be a bug in some versions of Perl where a
hash key gets added invalidly. The section of code that
this occurs has been modified to avoid the problem.
For existing databases with a bogus empty entry,
MHonArc now removes any empty key entries.
However, it is recommed to rebuild the archive.
Version Fixed: 2.0.1
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0
Problem: Index pages are not properly updated if zero messages
are in the archive (like through the -rmm option).
Even -editidx cannot cause a proper update.
Solution: Page count was set to zero when no messages exist. This
caused problems in conditional checks in the write index
routines. To fix, page count is forced to 1 if their
are no messages.
Version Fixed: 2.0.1
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: Index pages with last page links are not updated
when a new page is added.
Solution: All index pages are regenerated if a new page
is added.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: "-idxsize 0" does not give unlimited page size.
Solution: Problem fixed and now works as documented.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: "-maxsize 0" does not reset archive with
unlimited messages allowed.
Solution: Problem fixed and now works as documented.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: Non-ASCII text encodings (=?ISO-..?...) are not
properly decoded when EDITIDX is set.
Solution: The charset filter libraries are now loaded
for EDITIDX.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: MODTIME resource setting not remembered across
archive updates.
Solution: MODTIME resource is now properly stored in the
database.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: Specifying -rmm and -single caused confusion on
what MHonArc does.
Solution: The case is properly handled, with -rmm taking
precedence.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: 4 digit year not checked before 2 digit year
when parsing dates.
Solution: Fixed.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: Some index pages in multipage indexes not
updated when messages expire.
Solution: Fixed; all pages are regenerated when a message
expires.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: Setting MONTHS and MONTHSABR had no effect.
Solution: Fixed.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: $TNEXTFROM$ actually gave the value of $NEXTFROM$.
Solution: Fixed.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: Numerical timezone offsets not handled properly
when the offset contained non-zero minutes. This
caused message to be sorted wrong by date.
Solution: Fixed.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: Some characters were not properly escaped when
specifying the "in URL" modifier to a resource
variable.
Solution: Fixed.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: Thread (formatting) information lost when a
thread is split across multiple pages.
Solution: Fixed. New resources (TCONTBEGIN, TCONTEND,
TINDENTBEGIN, TINDENTEND) exist to preserve
formatting of threads across pages.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 3
Problem: If specifying the REVERSE resource, the next/prev
links in messages do not point to the proper
message as one may expect.
Solution: This should be fixed by the new behavior of
$NEXT...$ and $PREV...$ resource variables.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 2.0.0 beta 2
Problem: Perl aborts with message "Undefined subroutine
&main::output_db called ..." when the GENIDX resource

GENIDX is active.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0 beta 3
------------------------------------------------------------------------

no messages.

parameter, and not in quotes, was not recognized.

Version Fixed: 2.0.0 beta 2
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 1.2.3
Problem: Generation of links of message-ids when editting
messages w/o consideration that the message-ids
may already be linked. This caused nested anchor
markup.
Solution: Fixed. Only new message-ids are checked for.
Version Fixed: 2.0.0 beta 1
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version: 1.2.2
Problem: The ';' character may appear in derived files if the
"usename" option is set for the mhexternal.pl filter.
