+#  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.
