Support for OAuth 2.0? #751

Closed kahunapule closed 2 years ago

kahunapule commented 2 years ago

Google is disabling access to email accounts with "less secure" (email & password only) access on May 30, 2022. Would it be possible to set up Bibledit Cloud to use OAuth 2.0 for access to email? Or is there a better choice for an email provider? I tried Ionos.com, but their email send service blocks dynamic DNS sources.

After disabling the less secure access by Google, it should still be possible to use an app password.

About another email provider, I have not tried that. My first guess is that this would work if it's standard SMTP.

Or if Linux can access Google's SMTP server, then Bibledit Cloud could send it's email to the Linux host's local SMTP server.

Just a few thoughts....

Currently there's no support for OAuth 2.0 in Bibledit.

Has the question about authentication been answered sufficiently? If there's no more activity on this, then it will be closed soon.

This issue appears stale since there has not been activity on it during the last 30 days. Unless there is activity or the Stale label is removed, it will be automatically closed in 5 days.
