Support for OAUTHBEARER / XOAUTH2
The git repository contains new support for the OAUTHBEARER authentication
method, formerly known as XOAUTH2, a method pushed mainly by Google.
This means msmtp can now use an OAuth2 token for authentication by setting
auth oauthbearer
in the configuration file. The token is typically
passed to msmtp via the passwordeval
command since it changes
regularly.
However, msmtp does not provide a way to generate such a token. This depends on
your mail provider.
Since I do not use this method myself, it would be great if you could test this
feature and maybe document how to generate the necessary token for your mail
provider, so that I can add examples to the documentation.
Looking forward to your feedback!
