Re: Database purge query

Seems to work for me.  Bear in mind that there is a default grace
period of 2days, so stamps will not actually exire until 16 days after
issue if you say -e 14d.  You can override that with -g 0 if you dont
want any grace period.

Note also for the -e to apply to the purge, that option must come
before the -p option.  (Otherwise it applies to the -c etc).

Using your stamp file if I do this:

hashcash -g 0 -p now -t 060731

then the stamp file afterwards holds:

last_purged 060730230000
1:27:060717:bikikii::ATSrpfAr7W1prZUO:00000000055kh+ 1209600

(if no -e is given the e value given at time of checking (-c) is
stored in the db and used.  ie the 1209600 == 14days.)
