NAME
       mhlogin - nmh login to external (OAuth) services

SYNOPSIS
       mhlogin [-help] [-version] [-user username] [-saslmech mechanism] [-authservice service]
            [-browser command] [-snoop]

DESCRIPTION
       mhlogin currently only supports OAuth  for  Gmail.   Run  mhlogin  -user  username  -saslmech
       xoauth2  -authservice  gmail  and load the printed URL in your browser.  Login to a Gmail ac‐
       count, grant authorization, and copy and paste the code into the mhlogin prompt.  Be sure  to
       use  the  same  account with the -user switch to send.  See the EXAMPLES section below for an
       example.

       The -browser switch causes mhlogin to load the URL directly into a new browser session.   The
       command  argument must include the browser invocation name, and can include any browser argu‐
       ments in the -browser argument string, e.g., 'google-chrome --new-window'.

       The -snoop switch can be used to view the HTTP transaction.

       All parameters configuring the service may be overridden  by  profile  components,  and  even
       though  only  Gmail is supported out of the box, the user can define new services entirely in
       the profile.  Profile components are prefixed by oauth-service-,  for  example,  oauth-gmail-
       credential-file  which specifies where mhlogin should write credentials and where send should
       read them.

EXAMPLES
   Gmail
       First, login to the Gmail account that you want to use, e.g, user AT example.com,  using  a  web
       browser.  Then, enter a mhlogin command such as:

              mhlogin -user user AT example.com -saslmech xoauth2 -authservice gmail -browser 'google-chrome --new-window'

       The  username  should be a complete email address.  Respond to the prompt in the browser win‐
       dow, then copy and paste the authorization code in response to the mhlogin prompt.
