Since I'm a daily Fetchmail user, I was startled at first, but startpag-
ing for "OAUTH" and "fetchmail" returned
- Disabling the "Less Secure App" (LSA) support by Google has been
postponed indefinitely, and thus Fetchmail 6.X as currently provid-
ed by Gentoo should suffice for the time beeing.
- OAUTH should be part of Fetchmail 7.X, but as of today the most re-
cent downloadable release is 6.4.17. There is a 6.5.0-beta2 branch
in the Git repository at SourceForge, but it does not seem to cont-
ain anything OAUTH specific.
So apparently Google is waiting until Fetchmail is ready, or at least so
I hope :-)
Sincerely,
Rainer
