This is a strange MSGSEP. When used on the mailbox file, only a single
match is made, which causes a message over a megabyte in size to be
written (if you have the memory). You either have low memory, or
process quotas to get the Out of memory error. I was able to process
it on my system. Note, you should list the version of perl
in use ("perl -v") since perl may play in role.
Regardless, the MSGSEP is not appropriate for the file you gave.
Since I am not familiar with Wilma or how Majordomo stores it messages,
I cannot tell you the reason behind the MSGSEP resource used.
