/*
* What? You want to understand the VALID macro anyway? Alright, since you
* insist. Actually, it isn't really all that difficult, provided that you
* take it step by step.
*
* Line 1 Initializes the return ti value to failure (0);
* Lines 2-3 Validates that the 1st-5th characters are ``From ''.
* Lines 4-6 Validates that there is an end of line and points x at it.
* Lines 7-14 First checks to see if the line is at least 41 characters long
.
* If so, it scans backwards to find the rightmost space. From
* that point, it scans backwards to see if the string matches
* `` remote from''. If so, it sets x to point to the space at
* the start of the string.
* Line 15 Makes sure that there are at least 27 characters in the line.
* Lines 16-21 Checks if the date/time ends with the year (there is a space
* five characters back). If there is a colon three characters
* further back, there is no timezone field, so zn is set to 0
* and ti is set in front of the year. Otherwise, there must
* either to be a space four characters back for a three-letter
* timezone, or a space six characters back followed by a + or -
* for a numeric timezone; in either case, zn and ti become the
* offset of the space immediately before it.
* Lines 22-24 Are the failure case for line 14. If there is a space four
* characters back, it is a three-letter timezone; there must be
a
* space for the year nine characters back. zn is the zone
* offset; ti is the offset of the space.
* Lines 25-28 Are the failure case for line 20. If there is a space six
* characters back, it is a numeric timezone; there must be a
* space eleven characters back and a + or - five characters back
.
* zn is the zone offset; ti is the offset of the space.
* Line 29-32 If ti is valid, make sure that the string before ti is of the
* form www mmm dd hh:mm or www mmm dd hh:mm:ss, otherwise
* invalidate ti. There must be a colon three characters back
* and a space six or nine characters back (depending upon
* whether or not the character six characters back is a colon).
* There must be a space three characters further back (in front
* of the day), one seven characters back (in front of the month)
,
* and one eleven characters back (in front of the day of week).
* ti is set to be the offset of the space before the time.
*
* Why a macro? It gets invoked a *lot* in a tight loop. On some of the
* newer pipelined machines it is faster being open-coded than it would be if
* subroutines are called.
*
* Why does it scan backwards from the end of the line, instead of doing the
* much easier forward scan? There is no deterministic way to parse the
* ``user'' field, because it may contain unquoted spaces! Yes, I tested it t
o
* see if unquoted spaces were possible. They are, and I've encountered enoug
h
* evil mail to be totally unwilling to trust that ``it will never happen''.
