And all the while they are doing that, EC is considering if they want to ban calling apps "less secure" if whatever. I don't really care. Fetchmail isn't "less secure" because it doesn't bring the web browser that requires 100 security fixes every month, quite the contrary. We've had Kerberos/GSSAPI for ages. So then, app password access it will be. https://support.google.com/mail/answer/185833?hl=en&sjid=3175199933505007620-EU#app-passwords _______________________________________________ Fetchmail-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fetchmail-users
