That must be it. It worked fine when I loaded owl with no config file.
I'll debug it eventually. Ah, the age-old question: is it easier to
update my config to work, or to start with a newer one and add my
modifications...
In either case, here's my current config.

### !!!!!WARNING!!!!! !!!!!WARNING!!!!! !!!!!WARNING!!!!! !!!!!WARNING!!!!!
### This is an example file intended to demonstrate how to use
### various features of owl. Some of the key bindings, in particular,
### are more for examples than things you may actually want to use.
### Make sure to read through it first and understand it before just using it.
### Don't blame me if anything in here ends up vaporizing your dog.
### !!!!!WARNING!!!!! !!!!!WARNING!!!!! !!!!!WARNING!!!!! !!!!!WARNING!!!!!
###
### This file is interpreted by the perl interpreter.
### If you wish to execute an owl command use the
### function owl::command(). i.e.
###
### owl::command("set zsigproc /mit/kretch/bin/getzsig");
###
### will set the owl variable zsigproc. Subroutines created with
### the names below will be executed at the specified times:
###
### subroutine name properties
### --------------- ----------
### owl::startup() run when owl first starts
### owl::shutdown() run when owl exits
### owl::format_msg() run when a new message arrives, the return
### value is used to display the message on the
### screen
### owl::receive_msg() run when a message is received, and after
### it has been added to the message list
###
###
### The following variables will be set each time a message is recevied
### and when owl::format_msg() and owl::receive_msg() are run.
###
### $owl::class, $owl::instance, $owl::recipient,
### $owl::sender, $owl::opcode, $owl::zsig,
### $owl::msg, $owl::time, $owl::host, @owl::fields, $owl::id
###
# NOTE: Lines beginning with a "#" are perl comments.
# This subroutine is run whenever owl starts up.
# The owl::command("foo") lines execute the owl command "foo".

## The following set the values of variables.

## Set this to off to disable the terminal bell.

## The following create filters. Filters can be used to select
## on multiple zephyrs for operations. With 'views' you can
## look at only the zephyrs matching a particular filter.
## Use the 'view <filtername>' command or the 'v' key to switch views.
## The 'V' key will switch you back to your 'view_home' view.
## The M-D key will delete all messages in the current view
##
##
## The filter command creates a filter with the specified name,
## or if one already exists it is replaced. Example filter
## syntax would be:
##
## filter myfilter -c red ( class ^foobar$ ) or ( class ^quux$ and instance ^bar$ )
##
## Valid matching fields are class, instance, recipient, sender, opcode
## and realm. Valid operations are 'and', 'or' and 'not'. Spaces must be
## present before and after parenthesis. If the optional color argument
## is used it specifies the color that messages matching this filter
## should be displayed in. Do 'show colors' to see the available colors.

################################################################
## This would create a shortcut to only show personal messages
## with filter 'me' and to color them yellow.
## Replace myusername with yours.
# owl::command('filter me -c yellow recipient myusername');
## This would create a 'quiet' filter to not show messages
## on noisy classes and instances.
# owl::command('filter quiet not ( class ^foo|bar|quux$ or instance ( ^baaz$ ) ');
## The 'trash' filter is used when you press 'T' to mark things
## for autodeletion.
# owl::command('filter trash class ^mail$ or opcode ^ping$ or type ^admin$ or class ^login$');
