Hi Antonio,

That was likely and either/or scenario, fully played out by Google. I’ve been using OAUTH2 for several accounts on Google. Others - iCloud(Apple), Outlook(MS), Yahoo have new methods of verifying accounts with SSL. Both adapt fairly well to email clients like MailMate for me.

Yahoo! has one quirk I wish Benny would fix in MM. Don’t know if it’s related, but what happens is that Yahoo cannot verify the account if the laptop is moved to a new locale or IP address (not always a different router). It fails authorization/recognition by the server. Then requires me to take that account off line and re-register it (log it back in). Yahoo becomes happy again, until the next time.

Benny, care to comment about this one and how you want me to report it as a bug? I’ve been seeing in all 1.14 releases tried on this server only, including Test Builds for a while now. Currently on 1.14 r5895, MacOS 12.1.3 (Monterey).

Respectfully,

Henry Seiden

Hell MM community,

A few days ago, I ran across a post discussing the upcoming Google mandate that all Gmail users must use OAUTH2. My understanding is that this has been working in MM for quite a while so no issue there.

The part that got me wondering is this - this post stated that some apps may need to undergo an annual Google verification process and that this could cost the devs several hundred or thousands of dollars per year.

I have no idea if this applies to Mailmate but since I had not seen anything about this specific topic, I thought I would raise it if only to have the feedback be “No concern - we’re all good to go.”

If I have overlooked a previous discussion on this topic, please accept my mea culpa. Thanks in advance for reading…
