OAUTH2 over IMAP

Configure OAuth2 for Cypht with Gmail or Outlook

Cypht supports OAuth2 authentication to secure access to your email accounts without sharing your passwords. Only Gmail and Outlook/Office365 currently offer this feature.

The setup requires some additional steps, but significantly improves the security of your Cypht instance. We recommend checking beforehand that your installation is working correctly.

Simplified procedure:

1. Create an application at Google or Microsoft to obtain OAuth2 credentials.
2. Configure the .env file of Cypht with these credentials.
3. Add your account via Settings → Servers in Cypht.

Once configured, access to your emails will be done securely via access tokens without transmitting passwords.
