Before we run MHonArc 2.2.0, and no problem.  Bow we installed the 
V2.4.6, then the following line in the rcfile is not evaluated (should be the
 
starting date of archives):
    eval $tmp = $Date{$MListOrder[0]};

we are running Perl 5.005.

It helps to know where exactly in your resource file this statement
exists.  There are is only a very small set of resources that allow
Perl code, and the code is evaluated within specific contexts.

BTW, the information you are trying to retrieve is accessible via the
message data resource variables specifying a mesg_spec argument.  For
example,

        $MSGGMTDATE(FIRST)$

--ewh
