Just like they do with SMTP passwords. > On the one hand, I totally sympathize with that position, though the difference between having it on some device that can be lost/hacked vs a cloud service... I guess cloud services can be hacked in bulk, but chances are your users are already just re-using their email password, and so that ship has sailed. I haven't kept up with oauth recently, have they solved the discovery problem? If so, I can file a bug to have our pop fetcher switch to support oauth, but that would come with a bunch of work on your end to support that (I don't think anything supports that out of the box yet). There's also Gmailify instead of pop fetch. It uses IMAP and oauth, but it has a small whitelist of services it works with, partially due to oauth, partially due to IMAP being a more complicated protocol, and mostly just being overly cautious.
