Bus Error - core dumped
starman: ~/ExternalWWW/kent-grads/archive :
Core dumps are normally a sign that something is wrong with perl.
Since you did not mention what version of perl you are using, I would
guess it is an older version of perl 5. What version are you using?
If it is older that then the current release, I recommend upgrading.
Both machines I tried it on had Perl 5.001 patchlevel 1m
BTW, you did not state what version of MHonArc you are using?
And MHonArc was 2.1
But I still can't see how it can be related to these versions being old,
because, as my second mail showed, it was the mail message with a MIME
multipart part which was an inline rfc822 message which was making
mhonarc fail.
