IIRC, the evolution developers make some attempt to obscure the client_secret in their code -- which is mostly an annoyance. > So, I was looking into using mutt_oauth2.py. > > I came across this post, got the gpg key in place of > YOUR_GPG_IDENTITY and tried to follow the instructions: > > https://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~jacobd/posts/2022/03/configure-mutt-to-work-with-oauth-20/ > > (I put in the client ID, and for now left the > client_secret "" because I can not tell where this is > stored in evolution).

It's the argument you pass to the script. So with the command you wrote above, it would be token.txt in the directory where you ran the command from. Ideally, you should specify a full path to ensure things work regardless of the directory from which you run the script. > Actually, is there any place with detailed instructions on > this? Have you seen the thorough README file which is next to the mutt_oath2.py script in the mutt contrib directory? That is a good place to start. Being a workplace, I don't know if you can register a client id on your own or not, but it might be worth trying. -- Todd
