#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'date'
require 'mongoid'

Mongoid::Config.connect_to("email_test")

class Email
  include Mongoid::Document
  field :headers
  field :received
  field :date, :type => DateTime
  field :to
  field :from
  field :subject
  field :body
end

puts Email.where(:date.gte => DateTime.parse(Time.now.to_s)).count


## Fixed

But wth is going on with ":date.gte" <-- i.e. how does that create a key value for the hash?
