Python Script To Add DNS Overrides For WebFaction Hosted Domains to use Google Apps Mail

gmaildomain.py

'''
Run this script either by doing:

  python gmaildomain.py
  
And you will be prompted for details, or you can save time by doing:

  python gmaildomain.py WEBFACTION_USERNAME_HERE DOMAIN_TO_USE_GMAIL_FOR_HERE_WITHOUT_WWW

And you will only be prompted for your password.  

Don't forget to complete the Google Apps sign up process prior to running this script though as without that step, this is pointless!
