Mailplane v 2.0.3 Build 974 allows you to log into Gmail with an
incorrect password. I suspect that it is caching the password even
when it has been configured not to. Or maybe it's using the cookie
from an existing session in another browser?

Steps to reproduce:

Mailplane, Preferences, Accounts:

Uncheck "Store password in keychain"
Uncheck "Automatically log in when needed"

Close preferences

(I do this on my work MacBook Pro because I do not want anyone to be
able to log into my Gmail except me. There are occasions when other
people have access to my computer and I don't want them to be able to
get to my private mail.)

Quit Mailplane.

Open Mailplane

You are challenged to log in. In the email field in the login dialog
sheet, your gmail address should be filled in. Your password should be
blank. Below the Email and Password fields 'store password in keychain
should be blank and 'store password in keychain should be both
disabled and blank.

Type an incorrect password into the 'Password' field and press login

Expected behavior: your incorrect password is rejected. You are
invited to try again

Observed behavior: your incorrect password is accepted and you are
logged into Gmail.



This is a serious security glitch. Can you please look at this and see
where it's getting the login credentials from?

 Best
