1) Take the quotes off 'Body'
2) the third field is a regular expresion.
So, if you do something like:
Location|Body|Location:\s*(Delhi|Pune)|
This'll accept the values Delhi, Pune from the line in the email body, e.g.
Location: Delhi

If you don't want the 'Location: ' bit, and just want to search on a line that 
has only those values on it, you might want something like:
Location|Body|^(Delhi|Pune)$|

Hope that's clear,

P.S. There's _lots_ of perl refs on the web, e.g.:
