There is something that I'm missing [Outlook & Gmail]

[alohl669]

Hi, I'm trying to configure this proxy on docker to improve some services that I have but I don't achieve it.

For example(almost real), I have a personal wiki shared with a friend, or a git repository on my self-hosted infrastructure. It has been configured to send an email when someone public a pull-request, but it hasn't Oauth support.

Ok, I tried to set up an O365 and a gmail account. I just copied the examples and I just added the client id and secret that O365 and gmail gave me. The process stucks on
Authorisation request received for [email protected] (interactive mode) to finally say Authorisation result error for account [email protected] - aborting login. Authorisation request timed out.

reading the documentation I thought that I needed an apppassword so I started that process on gmail... but same results.

What thing am I doing wrong?

By the way, I'm using --no-gui argument because I'm using a docker image, no GUI.

Adding more context. This could be my config file:

[IMAP-1993]
documentation = *** O365
server_address = outlook.office365.com
server_port = 993
local_address = 0.0.0.0

[IMAP-2993]
server_address = imap.gmail.com
server_port = 993
local_address = 0.0.0.0

[SMTP-1587]
documentation = *** O365
server_address = smtp-mail.outlook.com
server_port = 587
server_starttls = True
local_address = 0.0.0.0

[SMTP-2465]
server_address = smtp.gmail.com
server_port = 465
local_address = 0.0.0.0

[[email protected]]

Are you at any point actually authorising the account? The proxy can't remove the need to do this; it just moves it to a different place. Either do this separately and copy over the modified proxy configuration file, or use the shell in your docker image. See the readme for more details here.

Also - you mention app passwords: if you can generate these then you don't need the proxy at all. Just use the app password instead of your actual password in your client's SMTP configuration.

No, and that was the problem. I feel stupid, but thanks! I was really stuck. If it hadn't been for your answer, although looking back on it now it was pretty obvious, I wouldn't have gotten it. I just apologize and thank you!
