#
# Google mail purge utility
#            - delete all mail before purgeDate(datetime.date(2007,11,06))
#
# [2009-11-17 Tue] Jaemok Jeong(jmjeong@gmail.com)
#
# ChangeLog:
#    - On gmail, delete flag does not work.
#        To delete mail, article should be copied to [Gmail]/Trash
#    - If verbose is off, act 'bulk copy'
