If not, is there any way to help the customer turn on IMAP support without making him/her go through these steps:<br /><br />http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=77695 <br /><br />In other words, I'd like to simply ask the user for permission to access his/her email via IMAP, period. The user can say yes or no. No other passwords or fiddling with gmail settings. Is this possible using OAuth?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14456917719790416039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11300808.post-3193024504857641662011-07-30T03:41:39.885-07:002011-07-30T03:41:39.885-07:00The sample code doesnt work with Google App Engine...The sample code doesnt work with Google App Enginevaibhavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04696703995925818027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11300808.post-60227412866117477562011-05-04T06:52:41.099-07:002011-05-04T06:52:41.099-07:00It was working properly for me... until yesterday!...It was working properly for me... until yesterday!

This becomes issues when user has emails with large attachemnt say 4-5 MB each. Will OAuth help to reduce this time or can it even directly do copy between two accounts from server without donwload and then upload.

How do you know you're not actually sending your password to the app and they're just proxying the request on the backend?fieldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01905580169818425599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11300808.post-54337355967686497042010-04-05T18:02:09.648-07:002010-04-05T18:02:09.648-07:00Why the code samples are not working ??
