This means the error channel program didn't return properly and rather
dropped core, which you can verify with 'file $POSTOFFICE/scheduler/core'
command as well..
Do check that you have $MAILSHARE/forms/err.nosuchuser -file available.

Another (a bit latter) Solaris port is available on
ftp.funet.fi:/pub/unix/mail/zmailer/zmailer-2.2.1-mea-DATECODE.tar.gz
My configs and forms differ, but that should not be too difficult.
