Re: gmail+imap+smtp (oauth2)

[Leo Butler <leo.butler@umanitoba.ca>]

Hello Uwe,

I find myself in a similar bind to yours. My employer recently switched
to 2FA and Gmail will phase out app passwords sometime soon.

In the interim, I use davmail to manage 2FA with my employer's microsoft
exchange server. It is brutally slow, so I am searching for
alternatives.

According to
https://www.masteringemacs.org/article/whats-new-in-emacs-28-1
oauth2.el support has been integrated into smtpmail and gnus.

I am running debian testing's stock emacs[1], and I haven't tried
version 28.1.

Perhaps someone else has tried using the oauth2 library? Any tips would
be appreciated.

Leo
