Short: Takes mail msgs and generates HTML documents. Author: Tom Gruber Uploader: Diego Casorran Type: util/cli Version: 2.1.7 Requires: ixemul.library Architecture: m68k-amigaos Hypermail Version: 2.1.x This is a release of the 2.1.x version of hypermail. Hypermail is a program that takes a file of mail messages in UNIX mailbox format and generates a set of cross-referenced HTML documents. SECURITY WARNING: Do not put hypermail's output anyplace where a web server might have server side includes (SSI) enabled unless you are sure you know what you are doing. WARNING: There once existed a program call "mail" that came with hypermail. 'mail' utility has not installed by default for the last two years. This program has been disabled because it was probably easy for spammers to use as an open relay. It also had problems with enabling malicious use of JavaScript and CRLF Injection. The 'mail' utility is a historic reclic and will not be supplied in future versions. Its functionality has been replaced with a warning that anyone using it should remove it immediately. See the INSTALL file to get started. For a description of how to use it, see the hypermail.html, hmrc.html, and hypermail-faq.html files that come in the docs/ directory. Please refer to Changelog for the list of recent changes. Hypermail is distributed under the GNU GPL license (see the file COPYING for details). Some programs that are distributed with it in the archive and contrib directories have different licenses - check the individual files for details. Hypermail Background: ===================== Hypermail was originally designed and developed by Tom Gruber for Enterprise Integration Technologies (EIT) using Common Lisp. It was later rewritten in C by Kevin Hughes in 1994 while Kevin worked at EIT. License Evolution: ------------------ In the spring of 1997, Kevin Hughes heavily pressed Hewlett-Packard (who was now the legal owner of Hypermail, since EIT was bought by VeriFone, which was bought by Hewlett-Packard) into placing a free software license onto his old EIT software. They officially put the GNU GPL license on *all* of Kevin's old EIT software, opening it up to more open methods of development and distribution. So now Hypermail is under GPL. EIT's net.disappearance: ------------------------ A very old and established government contractor company called Electronic Instrumentation and Technology Inc. made legal moves to obtain the eit.com domain. Since VeriFone/HP had no interest in keeping EIT, dissolved it completely. As this company had a trademark on EIT, the domain name was given to them. Elizabeth Batson of EIT/VeriFone/HP informed Kevin he could maintain all his old software himself wherever he wished to put it. Kevin and ongoing Hypermail Development: ---------------------------------------- Kevin left Hewlett-Packard in 1997 and helped form a new company called Veo Systems (www.veosystems.com) with his old boss Marty Tenenbaum, who founded EIT. Kevin did not have the time to maintain any of his old software, so he was looking for different parties to help maintain it and take over different pieces. For instance, Getstats has been obsoleted by Analog (http://www.statslab.cam.ac.uk/~sret1/analog/). SWISH has been taken over by the SWISH-E project (http://sunsite.berkeley.edu/SWISH-E/) and many people have been doing good things with it. April 17, 1998 Kevin passed hypermail development to Kent Landfield (http://www.hypermail.org/). Kent had been supporting an enhanced version of hypermail he had been using for the last few years. General: ======== This version has been tested on the platforms listed below. If you would like to send portability patches or confirmation that it works on a certain platform, please do. There should not be toooo many changes that need to be made. This version of hypermail has substantial support for attachments and for splitting archives into subdirectories. It also allows an administrator to customize the header and footers to match their local needs. This allows you to have hypermail facilities better integrated into your web site. This version is an integration of patches that Kevin had received through the years, and new features through the individual efforts many people. This has been run through lint, Insight and Purify and has been cleaned up accordingly. * archive - general archive utilites that are useful in managing list archives. Much of the functionality here has been rendered obsolete by the folder_by_date option. * contrib - contributed hypermail relate utilities * configs - sample hypermail configuration files, * docs - documentation and documentation support files, * libcgi - support library for the mail utility, * src - here's the beef, * tests - directory for supporting local testing, Warning: ======== Take the time to read the KNOWN_BUGS file so that you are aware of things that might affect your use of hypermail. CVS Server: =========== Thanks to Ashley M. Kirchner , we have a CVS server with the most recent sources at all times. Study the file README.CVS for details in how to use it. Getting Help: ============= Please send all bug reports, feature requests, patches, and other program-related things to hypermail-bugs@hypermail.org. The Hypermail Development mailing list (hypermail@hypermail.org) is a good place to ask questions about usage, potential bugs, or to talk about features you'd like to see. The list is a majordomo-based list. To subscribe send a message to majordomo@hypermail.org with "subscribe hypermail" (minus the quotes) as the body of the message. The Subject: line is ignored. The list's submission address is hypermail@hypermail.org. If you would simply like to be alerted to important Hypermail announcements and don't wish to follow the development list's traffic you can subscribe to the Hypermail Announcements list. That is a very low traffic moderated list intended for announcements only (concerning new releases or patches). This too is a majordomo based list so to subscribe, send a message to majordomo@hypermail.org with "subscribe hypermail-announce" as the body of the message.
