• Elm and Oauth2

    From Dirk Craeynest@21:1/5 to All on Mon Nov 20 10:45:05 2023
    Since ages I use elm as my main mail reader on Unix platforms,
    and have gone through various migrations to adapt to the different
    ways mail delivery and access is configured. Until recently this
    involved running fetchmail to retrieve all mail for local delivery,
    which also permitted to use procmail for automatic filtering, after
    which elm could be used as before.

    Now our mail has been migrated "to the MicroSoft cloud", and requires
    Oauth2 authentication to access it.

    To the best of my knowledge even the latest ELM ME+ 2.5 release
    of December 2022 does not support Oauth2. Is there any chance of
    continuing to use elm in such context?

    Any suggestions for workarounds to retrieve mail from the MS cloud
    and deliver locally? (Forwarding/redirecting is not possible.)

    ELM ME+ 2.5 also does not support smtp authentication when sending mail.
