ISTR it has recently come 'out' of the default, perhapa because quite a
number of things once reliant on it now have built-in equivalents.
Most posts here seem to show use of perl for apecial cases of regular
expression parsing (a particular strength of perl), header re-writing,
complex lookups and branching, statistics accumultation, analysis, and
re-use, decision support, et al.
I've seen a number of useful-looking things done with it - but have yet
to need any of them here (aside from SpamAssassin being written in perl,
of course..).
