Auto detect auth mechanism for IMAP and SMTP #211

Closed marbetschar closed 3 years ago

marbetschar commented 3 years ago

Fixes #203 and superseds #207.

@danrabbit thinking about this a bit more I found a more elegant solution to the problem by simply probing for LOGIN and PLAIN auth methods. This way we do not need any additional form inputs. Also I don't think most users are aware what those authentication mechanisms are anyway.

i'm sorry to say that I'm kinda new to Github, but I'm still experiencing the same problem as before. Because of what I can understand problem is solved reading this conversation, although I'm not really sure what merged 3 commits into main means exactly.

@Brutalious the fix was merged in the work-in-progress code but it has not yet been released as an update to the general public. It should go out within the next couple of days

Thank you for the quick response. Still got a lot to learn regarding github repo's and how it all works.

ghost commented 3 years ago

Still have the same experience. Completely updated but error stays the same as mentioned above.

@Brutalious I created a new issue so we can follow up on this over there: https://github.com/elementary/switchboard-plug-onlineaccounts/issues/224
