Subject: Username for gnus-notifications

Hi all,

after reading

  http://julien.danjou.info/blog/2012/gnus-notifications

I wanted to try it out and added `gnus-notifications' to the relevant
hook.  Now, after getting new mail, I'm queried for username/password
for some google site.  I didn't remember the exact URL and it's not in
*Messages*.  I tried with my google user account name tsdh80 + the
corresponding password but was queried again.  Then I tried with my
complete gmail email address as username and the same password, but
still I was queried again.  So I've quit using C-g.

Strangely, now when I hit `g` again, it asks for my gnome keyring
password once, and then it shows the notifications as it should.

So it seems to work, but for what was the first query loop good for
then?

I should note that I use 2-step verification, so maybe I should have
created an application specific password for gnus-notifications?

Thanks,
Tassilo
