Code from perl cookbook, wrapped in plperlu wrapper

not very portable, Net::SMTP would probably be better, and result in more
portable perl code.

Didn't test this - but it is copied straight from perl cookbook via
google: http://www.unix.org.ua/orelly/perl/cookbook/ch18_04.htm

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION send_email(from_address text, to_address text,
	subject text, body text) RETURNS void AS $$

use Mail::Mailer;
my ($from_address, $to_address, $subject, $body) = @_;

my $mailer = Mail::Mailer->new("sendmail");
$mailer->open({ From    => $from_address,
                To      => $to_address,
                Subject => $subject,
              })
    or die "Can't open: $!";
print $mailer $body;
$mailer->close();

$$ LANGUAGE plperlu VOLATILE STRICT;

Hello,

it depend on your possibilities. Simply, use PL/Perl or PL/sh.

Regards
Pavel Stehule

or use PgSendMail

Generally, it is a better idea either to poll your PostgreSQL database
and send mail based on that, or use LISTEN/NOTIFY, rather than
directly sending mail from your database.

Cheers,
