I only decided to ditch MySQL tonight so I'm within the first
1/2 dozen hours of using pgsql for almost the first time. I've
lost a fair amount of hair with the basics of db and user setup
and close to burnout.

Excellent. Just the double quotes needed to be changed to single
quotes to avoid this error and replace() indeed works for my needs.
ERROR: column "user.domain.com" does not exist
Another anti-burnout question, how would I turn on the ability
to view any SQL requests in the logfile ?
No doubt there is an answer in the list archives somewhere but
my first few searches brought up nothing useful.
