|    Fetchmail, gmail and 2fa.    |
|    07 Dec 21 12:26:44    |
      From: rm@nunya.inv              I'm currently using fetchmail to draw from various POP accounts and       distribute on my server using fetchmail, procmail, and dovecot. It has       worked flawlessly for several years going back to when imapd was the       serving daemon.              I received notification that Gmail will be going to 2FA (two factor       authentication) as of December 14.              Switching to 2FA at gmail results in a fetchmail authentication error.       Obviously the challenge/response required to log in is missing in       fetchmail, just the POP password is submitted.              Does this signal the end of my current mail service and force us to use       webmail? If not, how can I satisfy gmail's need for 2FA via fetchmail?       Is there an alternative to fetchmail that will provide this       authentication requirement?              Rinaldi              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
