I apologize for not being clear enough. I'll try again. Gmail uses OAuth 2.0 based access. I can access it with simple SMTP/IMAP, but Gmail doesn't like it (it thinks I'm insecure). So, I want to do it in their way. They provide instructions on how to do it in Python, PHP, Ruby and other languages, but not Perl. I looked in cpan, and there seem to be some modules that claim to do the work, but I couldn't be sure they're what I need. So how would you access Gmail using their OAuth? what module would you use? or is there some other way?
