Dear Sir or Madam
Unable to build OAuth2.0 authentication to Gmail using dovecot as proxy.
I have a question about how to use dovecot as a proxy to perform OAuth 2.0
authentication to Gmail using a mail client.
1.
Is the following all I need to do to authenticate to Gmail using dovecot
as a proxy?
-
passdb
passdb {
driver = oauth2
mechanisms = oauthbearer xoauth2
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-oauth2.token.conf.ext
}
passdb {
driver = oauth2
mechanisms = plain login
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-oauth2.plain.conf.ext
}
-
create dovecot-oauth2.token.conf.ext and dovecot-oauth2.plain.conf.ext
- create gmail service account api
2.
grant_url in dovecot-oauth2.token.conf.ext and
dovecot-oauth2.plain.conf.ext is URL for obtaining a Google access token
for a web server that I have built myself?
3.
I use a Gmail service account, so I don’t need a client ID and secret
ID, right?
4.
Do I set introspection_url to the URL of my own web server with the
access token used for authentication to Google as the response?
5.
The documentation says “pass_attrs = host=127.0.0.1”, but if you are
authenticating to Gmail, I should use
“pass_attrs = proxy=y
host=%{if;%s;eq;imap;imap.gmail.com;%{if;%s;eq;pop3;smtp
.gmail.com;pop.gmail.com}}
port=%{if;%s;eq;imap;993;%{if;%s;eq;pop3;587;465}} proxy_mech=xoauth2
pass=%{oauth2:access_token} user=%{oauth2:email oauth2:email}”?
6.
What is the difference between dovecot-oauth2.token.conf.ext and
dovecot-oauth2.plain.conf.ext ? Do I need to configure both?
I used
https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/authentication/oauth2/#proxy
as a reference.
I would appreciate your reply.
Yours faithfully,
