[comp.mail.mh] slocal having memory fault, dumping core

cwilson@NISC.SRI.COM (Chan Wilson [Animal]) (09/19/90)

This is fairly frustrating; randomly (no, probably not, but I can't see 
any pattern to it) mail to me is bouncing back to the sender with the
following error message:

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
sh: 9535 Memory fault - core dumped
554 "|/usr/local/lib/mh/slocal -user cwilson"... unknown mailer error 139

   ----- Unsent message follows -----

These aren't large mail messages, either, under a page, mostly,
although I have had a few large ones bounce.  send -help produces the
following:

version: MH 6.6 #5[UCI] (fs4) of Tue May  9 14:00:10 PDT 1989
options: [SUN40] [BSD42] [BSD43] [BERK] [TTYD] [DUMB] [ATZ] [NFS] [MHE]
         [NETWORK] [RPATHS] [MHRC] [SBACKUP='"#"']
         [MORE='"/usr/local/bin/less"'] [SENDMTS]


Would updating to the latest version of mh (which version is that,
anyhow?) help?  

Oh yes; the machine that this is happening on is a sun3, sunos 4.03..

Thanks for any/all help.  This is getting VERY ANNOYING...
