Hi Benjamin,

Please mail support issues to the mailing list rather than private email
so others can help or benefit from any solutions found.

This is certainly a strange issue considering the work of a stored
procedure is all done on the server. Are you running pgAdmin and pgAgent
on the same box? Where's PostgreSQL running?

Regards, Dave.
