That query plan is nearly illegible, and it contains no information
about how the query actually executed or how many rows were fetched from
various tables. I can't personally see any way to give you useful advice
based on that information.
I know you're going through a third party, but do think you could get
them to post the original form, unmangled by mail clients and whatever
else they've done to it, here? :

Get them to use EXPLAIN ANALYZE rather than plain EXPLAIN, and to
provide the text of the query that generated the plan.
