Authorised redirect URIs #17

Fantastic library @jeremyephron, thanks!

One difficulty - I kept getting invalid credentials errors from simple-gmail even though I had a valid json file. When creating the Google API credential you also have to specify an "Authorised redirect URI" for communicating back with the client, i.e. http://localhost:8090/

Suggest adding this to your readme.md instructions for others.

best regards

I haven't seen that one before. I will look into it and add the appropriate steps. Thanks for the suggestion!

I added more information and a link to Google's page with the OAuth2.0 requirements for different kinds of applications. Commit: 7cad7c12d6
