Remember to cc: the mailing list too. Just hit "reply to all".
Oh, and perhaps don't top-quote. It makes it difficult for others to
follow the message.

No, the data needs to start on the line below COPY, but your first email
had a blank line there. Your message had:
Line 1: COPY artikkel (id, tittel, tekst) FROM stdin;
Line 2: (blank)
Line 3: 5 Slitasje og vedlikehold PRAKTISKE OPPLYSNINGER
What you want is something like:
COPY artikkel (id, tittel, tekst) FROM stdin;
1<tab>Title one<tab>Some text
2<tab>Title two<tab>Some text
\.
Where the <tab> marks are real tabs.

Hmm - reading the phppgadmin documentation, the FAQ says the following:
"Only uploaded SQL scripts can contain COPY commands and for this to
work, you must have PHP 4.2 or higher."
So - it looks like you should save the COPY script to a text-file and
upload it. I don't know how you do that, but it should be in the manual.
