Re: Google gmail cutting off alpine

Hi,
If someone can point us to the branch of fetchmail that can handle oauth2, one can use that with alpine.
Regards, Willem

I really, really hope the Alpine developers can find a fix for this.


I am rather partial to living on a console for as much as I can, but with Gmail and Alpine breaking, it would be rather difficult, unless I would want to find an alternative solution, which I am not, simply because I have quite a few mailing lists subscribe to the gmail, and I'm lazy..


Warm regards,

unsure if thunderbird can do it via oauth also.


Yes. I've been able to use Thunderbird in that way with Gmail for some time. It redirects to Google and asks me to allow the application instead of getting a username and password. This of course is specific to Thunderbird though, and I can't remember if Seamonkey works the same way. That said, I do seem to recall Evolution redirecting to Google in much the same way, so it may still work also. Doesn't solve the text-based client issues, but if Alpine in fact has figured out a fix, that would in fact solve the problem there.
