Just a small word of caution, though. I'm an OAUTH n00b, but I tried to
fiddle a bit with OAUTH authentication in the Gmail context a few years
back, trying to make it work. I noted that Google keeps track of failed
attempts. They would block my IP address after "a few" (< 10?) failed
attempts. I got the access back after a couple of hours, but be aware
that it may hamper your everyday life using other Google services for a
while, if your experiments get too wild ... 😉
Your experience may differ.
I assume there must be some kind of sandbox environment at Google that
one can get access to when developing authentication clients, but I have
not ventured into that space, so I don't know.
All above said, please report back on any progress in this area! 🙂
Best regards,
