Re: Compile of Pgmail function fails - Mailing list pgsql-general

I'm using the pgmail function bundled in
pgMail-1.1.tar.

Tried

select
pgmail('<ind1_us@yahoo.com>','<ind1_us@yahoo.com>','Test
pgmail','Test message ');

Still i get this error
 ERROR:  syntax error at or near "set"
CONTEXT:  compile of PL/pgSQL function "pgmail" near
line 1


 I have specified proper  MAILSERVER  and
DATABASESERVER data in this function and function was
created .

create function pgmail(text, text, text, text) returns
int4 as '
set mailfrom $1
set mailto $2
set mailsubject $3
set mailmessage $4
set myHost "<ENTER YOUR MAILSERVER HERE>"
set myPort 25
set mySock [socket $myHost $myPort]
set toemailaddress_start [string first "<" $mailto]
if {$toemailaddress_start != -1} {
    set toemailaddress_finish [string first ">" $mailto]
    set toemailaddress_start [expr $toemailaddress_start
+ 1]
    set toemailaddress_finish [expr
$toemailaddress_finish - 1]
    set toemailaddress [string range $mailto
$toemailaddress_start $toemailaddress_finish]
} else {
    set toemailaddress $mailto
}
set fromemailaddress_start [string first "<"
$mailfrom]
if {$fromemailaddress_start != -1} {
    set fromemailaddress_finish [string first ">"
$mailfrom]
    set fromemailaddress_start [expr
$fromemailaddress_start + 1]
    set fromemailaddress_finish [expr
$fromemailaddress_finish - 1]
    set fromemailaddress [string range $mailfrom
$fromemailaddress_start $fromemailaddress_finish]
} else {
    set fromemailaddress $mailfrom
}
