It's been a while since I've had a need for something like this, but
of
the copy features not currently available in PostgreSQL, the two most
useful are to read in only some of the defined columns, and to output
to
a separate disk file any rows which failed to match the expected
format.
The latter would not cause the copy to fail unless the count of such
rows exceeded a user-specified threshold.
