Is it possible to use oauth with a G Suite google account? My email address doesn’t end with gmail.com and it doesn’t trigger the oauth flow.
There is a similar issue with Yandex.Mail for domain. If Thunderbird instructions don’t work, then we need to file an issue on GitHub.
The thunderbird instructions are using a password, google is phasing out support for using passwords instead of oauth.
Oh that’s bad…
Enabling oauth2 in android alone took us months and we only got automated/template emails back from google.
Maybe try logging into gmail.com server, but using your full email as a login?
to the initial question: gmail is currently only possible with @gmail.com e-mail-addresses.
currently, this is not possible, you have to use an @gmail.com address for oauth2 or enable an app-password or less-secure-apps.
this won’t work as oauth2 is triggered only by the domain currently.
Thanks for confirming, r10s. I noticed a few weeks ago that my Google accounts stopped working with less secure login—even for fetching email from one to another! So, I will need OAuth2. Is there a feature request I can subscribe to, so I know when it will be ready?
Are 2fa app passwords also broken?
i’d say this thread and ~~Issues · deltachat/deltachat-android · GitHub Detecting G Suite domains for OAuth2 flow · Issue #1425 · deltachat/deltachat-core-rust · GitHub 
actually, no dev is working on that, therefore it is not open for now. @rrthomas if you want to work on that, i would happily reopen the issue. however, i think, most work is probabl in rust-core, not in android.
OK, many thanks!
