GMail sorting scripts

These scripts help sort email messages that were downloaded from GMail using getmail 4.34.0+ into folders based on GMail labels. Currently, only the maildir format is supported. There are three scripts:

• mailparse.py: This looks at all the e-mails in a maildir and returns a list of unique labels. I recommend running this before setting up the next two scripts. It takes one command line argument – the path to the maildir to be parsed.

• sortchats.py: This sorts all the chats in a set of maildirs into one "Chats" folder. A group of origin directories and a destination directory is configurable via the gmailsort_settings.py file. See example_settings.py for more information.

• mailsort.py: This sorts the emails in one origin maildir into folders based on labels. It needs a lot of configuration in gmailsort_settings.py please check out example_settings.py for more information.

This is a highly customised set of scripts, so please read the code carefully before using. That said, I'd like it to be more general purpose in the future – here are my todos:

• Use a non-Python configuration file.
• Make mailparse.py configurable.
• Allow more options for destination maildirs.
• Support mbox.
