Gmail for Passpack is Fully Active Again

Feb. 13, 2010

Some months ago we stopped the full support of Gmail authentication to Passpack. Yesterday I was reading the post announcing it, and I had an idea.

Google requires you to configure your account in order to allow the access to the mailbox from external tools. However, yesterday I decided to try and simply authenticate via IMAP on a brand new Gmail account.

Surprisingly… it worked because recently Google changes the default settings. In ten minutes I reversed the code substituting the old library with just two lines.

So the good news is “we fixed it”. The Gmail third party authentication will not be discontinued.

Obviously… your GMail account must have the IMAP Access enabled.

Passpack at BarCamp/RomeCamp

Jan. 21, 2007

The Passpack crew spent a great day yesterday at Rome’s BarCamp held at the Linuxclub. There was no official presentation of Passpack as BarCamp is a tech and discussion forum – not the right place to plug start-ups.
