Google works with XOAUTH2 also, it is what my MUA supports (falsely labeled as oauthbearer until v14.10. series is released). A terrible auth mech that introduces usage of JSON to the protocols (where A NUL B NUL C NUL NUL style would be better than good enough), as well as compulsion to interact via HTTP, which by itself would not be that hard, if there would not be the much more complicated HTTP/2 around, with the HTTP/3 that even uses a different transport coming along. --steffen | |Der Kragenbaer, The moon bear, |der holt sich munter he cheerfully and one by one |einen nach dem anderen runter wa.ks himself off |(By Robert Gernhardt)
