# Mold Remover
#
# A short python script to remove old read mail from a pop3 mailserver.
# Distributed under the GNU GPL (http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html)
# Dovetails with fetchmail with keep option.
# Run it as a cron job... Remember to stop fetchmail in the cron job
# before calling mold_remover, and to restart fetchmail after mold_remover
# e.g.:
#
# /etc/init.d/fetchmail stop >> /var/log/messages
# /usr/bin/python /usr/local/bin/mold_remover.py >> /var/log/messages
# /etc/init.d/fetchmail start >> /var/log/messages
