There's a suggested function in pltclu to send emails from the postgre database.

I've worked with this and discovered that there's an error which causes the
email to be sent with a blank subject and the subject to be included as part of
the body.

To overcome this, the following should be done:

comment out or remove the two lines:-

puts $ServerSocket "To: $mailto" ;# To:
puts $ServerSocket "From: $mailfrom" ;# From:

Quentin

There's no such function anywhere in the core Postgres distribution,
so I think you've reported this to the wrong place.
