perl error when setting up openwebmail

[Bill Tangren <bjt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I got the following error, when I was setting up openwebmail. I thought 
I had the latest and greatest perl rpms. Does anyone know where the 
error is, and how I should correct it?

.....

root@aa2 RPMS]# /var/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail/openwebmail-tool.pl --init

WARNING!

The perl on your system has serious bug in routine tell()!
While openwebmail can work properly with this bug, other perl application
may not function properly and thus cause data loss.

We suggest that you should patch your perl as soon as possible.


Please hit 'Enter' to continue or Ctrl-C to break.

Please change the following 3 options in openwebmail.conf
from
        dbm_ext                 .db
        dbmopen_ext
        dbmopen_haslock         0
to
        dbm_ext                 .db
        dbmopen_ext             %dbm_ext%
        dbmopen_haslock         no


And execute '/var/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail/openwebmail-tool.pl --init' 
again!.
