So I have a couple of email service providers, gmail and yahoo, which
are pushing for me to remove my "allow less secure apps" setting and
get on the Oauth2 signin process. I additionally need to figure out
out to get a Linux based Symantec VIP Access type service worknig for
signing in to my financial service. But let stay with the email
providers. Does Claws-mail have any development activity going towards
Oauth2 support like Seamonkey and Thunderbird integrate? Or is there a
plugin to use with Claws-mail?
Or can someone give me an outline on how to implement Oauth2 globally
so that when an gmail or yahoo request I can respond and remove the
burden from Claws-mail?
I know Oauth and Oauth2 have been around for a decade or more and I
also know that two factor authentication is becoming more common as
ISP's are trying to fight off hackers. So I figure I better figure
this out sooner than later.
