If your hpt was compiled with Perl, you may use Perl. You may write in your
filter.pl file:

...
sub filter
{
    if($area eq "" && $toaddr eq "1:317/3"
&& lc($toname) eq "sysop")
    {
        $toname = "Dan Richter";
        $change = 1;
        return "";
    }
}
...

You should also have such a line in your fidoconfig:

HptPerlFile  /path/to/filter.pl
