Very cool! Its great to see people flesh out the RAA with interesting
and useful projects. And I can tell that you really made an effort to
create a high quality library. Thanks!

As a potenial user of your library, here are some suggestions about
your API (not that you asked, so feel free to ignore me if you're not
interested). How about something like this:

GMailer::connect(name, pwd) do |g|
  
  g.send do
    to "me@here.org"
    subject "Testing"
    message "This is a test"
    attach "myfile.txt"
    attach "anotherfile"
  end

  g.fetch(:label=>"ruby-talk") do |b|
    puts "Total messages: #{b.box_total}"
  end

  g.fetch(:contact=>"freq").each do |item|
    puts "Name: #{item.name} Email: #{item.email}"
  end

end

In addition, I'd like to see the library use ruby's default arguments
to avoid having to tack on a 0 or a 'false' or an empty string at the
end of a parameter list. I'm lazy.

> Enjoy!

We will :)
