             Summary: camel-mail: allow dynamic setting of token in order to be 
able to support OAUTH
                 Key: CAMEL-14795
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-14795
             Project: Camel
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: camel-mail
    Affects Versions: 3.2.0
            Reporter: Franz Forsthofer


camel-mail uses java-mail. Meanwhile java-mail does support OAuth for imap and 
smtp (see [https://javaee.github.io/javamail/OAuth2]). The OAuth access tokens 
typically expire. The current camel-mail component does not allow to 
dynamically read the password (=token), the password is fix set in the 
configuration. Therefore it is not possible to update the password/token.

We improve the camel-mail component so that it is possible to dynamically read 
the user and password/token, so that the OAuth use case can be supported.

Instead of setting the user and password on the configuration, you specify an 
authenticator bean in the configuration.  The authenticator method 

public PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() 

will be called dynamically whenever a user/token (or password) is needed for 
connecting to the mail server.
