when with an ADO component I do a Post() which calls the function...just
the matter is I can't modify the application to manage a possibly
notification...only the postgresql's function...

Well, in that case, the ADO component is the client. This is the place
to modify de code, to capture the NOTICE. Im shure the ADO (or any other
component who actually connect to the database and makes the query) has
the ability to react when an EXCEPTION is thrown. My guess is that
EXCEPTION's goes trough StandardError, but NOTICE's goes trough
StandardOutput, and that could be some idea why your app is not getting
notice about NOTICES :)
I will wait for some expert dude to respond this, because im going
myself into unknown territory.
