RE-POST: This is a repost. Our mailserver was out of order when sending
this report yesterday, and I can't find the post on the buglist yet.
Sorry for any inconvenience.

BUG:
I have a table with the following column, from "psql \d":
showemail    | boolean                     |

When I try to insert data data into this through jdbc, I get the
following error:
java.sql.SQLException: ERROR: column "showemail" is of type boolean but
expression is of type text

---------------------------------------------------------------------
My environment:
postgreSQL 8.0-beta2-dev3
Win2k sp4 professional
jdbc driver: pgdev.305.jdbc3
java version: 1.4

The error also occured in beta1.

The following statement executed from psql works as expected:

insert into mytable (showemail) values ('true');
