.Ss Gmail - sending mail
Option

.Ss Gmail OAUTH2
To use OAUTH2, you must go through a process to register your own private "application" with Google that can use OAUTH2 tokens.
For convenience in the meli repository under the
.Pa contrib/
directory you can find a python3 file named oauth2.py to generate and request the appropriate data to perform OAUTH2 authentication.
Steps:
.Bl -bullet -compact
.It
In Google APIs, create a custom OAuth client ID and note down the Client ID and Client Secret.
You may need to create a consent screen; follow the steps described in the website.
.It
Run the oauth2.py script as follows (after adjusting binary paths and credentials):
.Cm python3 oauth2.py --user=xxx@gmail.com --client_id=1038[...].apps.googleusercontent.com --client_secret=VWFn8LIKAMC-MsjBMhJeOplZ --generate_oauth2_token
and follow the instructions.
Note down the refresh token.
.It
In
.Ic server_password_command
enter a command like this (after adjusting binary paths and credentials):
.Cm TOKEN=$(python3 oauth2.py --user=xxx@gmail.com --quiet --client_id=1038[...].apps.googleusercontent.com --client_secret=VWFn8LIKAMC-MsjBMhJeOplZ --refresh_token=1/Yzm6MRy4q1xi7Dx2DuWXNgT6s37OrP_DW_IoyTum4YA) && python3 oauth2.py --user=xxx@gmail.com --generate_oauth2_string --quiet --access_token=$TOKEN
.It
On startup, meli should evaluate this command which if successful must only return a base64-encoded token ready to be passed to IMAP.
