In a bash shell or script you should be able to go

   ./jabber.pl jabbername at jabber.server "Testing
   Does this work
   I hope so"

Otherwise, does your perl script take std input? for instance:

   ./jabber.pl jabbername at jabber.server << EOF
   Testing
   Does this work
   I hope so
   EOF

Or else (I'm stabbing in the dark here) perhaps jabber understands some HTML 
tags, eg. try something like

   <br>
   <br />

Cheers,
