I am having a problem with one of my mailing lists, find the statistics

that this one receives many more hits a day than the others.
1.The server is running BSDI 3.0 with Perl 5 and mhonarc 2.2.0
Well, according to the output you sent, you are not using v2.2.0.
v2.2.0 does not generate the "Requiring * libraries ..." lines
since filters are now loaded on demand.
2.alias is: broadcastmarc: "|/usr/local/etc/mhonarc/bin/mhonarc -rcfile
/usr/local/etc/mhonarc/rcfiles/broadcastmarc.rc -add -outdir
/usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/broadcast.net/bmail/broadcast/marcbroadcast -- -"
Or invocation looks wrong. What's with the "-- -"? You are not
processing a mailbox but a single message. You should be able to leave
out the "-- -".
3. The error msgs. I receive are as follows:

Ugh. I just realized I do not include $! in the error message when
creating a file. It would help determine what went wrong. Something
caused the file creation to fail. Could permissions, ownership, disk space,
who knows? I'll go kick myself now.
--ewh
