It means your computer is using a broken version of the "sendmail" system 
program, and should get the latest version.

The background...

A(nother) security hole was discovered in the "sendmail" mail delivery 
system and a fixed version was released.  Unfortunately it broke another 
area, causing sendmail (not Pine) to core dump when sending to more than 
a number of people (I think it was 20-ish).

The problem is fixed in the 8.6.12 release of sendmail.
