Subject: [PATCH] b4: allow using xoauth2/bearer token to authenticate to SMTP servers
Date: Fri, 6 Mar 2026 08:20:18 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260306162020.54683-1-dtor@chromium.org> (raw)
Allow using XOAUTH2 as an authentication protocol and assume that when
XOAUTH2 is specified the password is actually a bearer token (typically
not stored in the config but rather returned via "git credentials".
Recognize "oauth", "oauth2" as aliases for "xoauth2".
