I am trying to figure out if its eMail utility will
handle OAuth2 (gmail, yahoo) before even trying it out.

No one uses OAUTH[1] anymore. Google got involved and ****ed up OAUTH
to make it usable per Google's requirements, so OAUTH2 was born.

Google is often restricting access, especially for searches, to only
Chrome users that login using their web browser. They show a vague
error and say to reload the page (which never works). Here is the
non-Google archived version:

In the link to the Vimeo video, one of the original authors of OATH1
apologizes and divests himself of any responsibility for the crap that
OAUTH2 became. OAUTH2 is not about securing or protecting the user. It
is about Google (and some other big players) tracking their users.

One my consistent complaint to Microsoft with their OneNote program (not
the Win10 app or the online web app, but the program, like what was
included in Office 365 or you download standalone since it's free) is
that I kept getting asked to re-login. Instead of just using the login
credentials that got saved in the local Credential Manager, the program
wanted to use an OAUTH2 token -- but those expire requiring
renegotiation.

As Hammer states, OAUTH1 was a protocol with a specification. OAUTH2
became a framework, not a standardized protocol, that lets each OAUTH2
implementer to do it their way.




Thank you!

Have you used Duplicati? If so, what is your technical opinion
of it?
