Delete the existing ".mhonarc.lck" file. It appears one has been
left behind from an abnormal temrinated mhonarc process. If a lock
file exists, mhonarc will try for awhile to lock it before it gives
up. The amount of times it tries can be set via -locktries.
I tried that many times, each time removing the lock file. It gets
recreated just as before. Same error message.

What version of Perl are you using? I believe the key text is
"sh: 14929 Memory fault" which is generated from /bin/sh.
Here's what my Perl reports as version info ...
This is perl, version 4.0
$RCSfile: perl.c,v $$Revision: 4.0.1.8 $$Date: 1993/02/05 19:39:30 $
Patch level: 36
The problem appears to be a memory related. If a memory error occurs,
there is no way for mhonarc to clean up since it will terminate
abnormally.
Try the command from a shell to see that everything works as expected.
Maybe there is a per process memory limitation taking effect when
invoking a processes via sendmail.
Can anybody experienced with sendmail help?
--ewh
P.S. What system are you using? Just to double check, is the version
of Perl you listed the same perl that is pointed to in the #! line of
the (installed) mhonarc source. There is a version of Perl 5 that
causes a core dump when when any command-line options are used.
v5.001m and v5.002 do not exhibit this problem.
