# This script downloads email archives from gBorg
# Parameters:
#  1.  If need be, change ARCHHOME to be some more suitable location for mailing list archives
#  2.  Optional single argument: INIT
#
#      If you run "bash pull-gborg-mail.sh INIT", it will go through
#      all the years of the Slony-I project at gBorg, and download
#      each month's file.
#
#      If you pass no value, it will pull the current month's email
#      archives, overwriting the existing copies.
