Message:

2.1.3-pre-2
	Added perl filter elements.  Similar to having "filter <subfilter>"
	  in a filter, you may also have "perl <functionname>"
	  where <functionname> is passed an owl::Message object and
	  returns 0 or 1 depending on whether the message matches
	  that element of the filter.
	  [Note: currently this overloads the filtername element
	  of the filterelement structure to store the function name.
	  Perhaps we should change the name of this element to something
	  more general to avoid confusion?]
