 * Are there plans to add OAuth support to postie? POP3 and IMAP are blocked by 
   our infosec policy with no exceptions. I am told I must use OAuth for any email
   connection.

 * I have researched this, and it can be done, however, it adds a lot of complexity.
 * Reach out to me directly if you’re interested in a custom version of Postie.

 * Thank you for getting back. I found some software, Email OAuth Proxy, that will
   work for me. So, no need to add it yet. And yes, holy smokes is it complicated
   to setup. It should be on your radar for the future, because passwords seem to
   be going away.
 * Thanks again!
