AuthMechanism Property
The authentication mechanism to be used when connecting to the mail server.
Syntax
public GmailAuthMechanisms AuthMechanism { get; set; }
enum GmailAuthMechanisms { amUserPassword, amCRAMMD5, amNTLM, amSASLPlain, amSASLDigestMD5, amKerberos, amSASLXOAuth2 }
Public Property AuthMechanism As GmailAuthMechanisms
Enum GmailAuthMechanisms amUserPassword amCRAMMD5 amNTLM amSASLPlain amSASLDigestMD5 amKerberos amSASLXOAuth2 End Enum
Default Value
0
Remarks
By default, AuthMechanism is amUserPassword (0), and default plaintext authentication is used to login to the server.
If AuthMechanism is set to amSASLXOAuth2 (7), an OAUTH authorization string is used to authenticate. The Authorization property must be set to a valid authorization string.
At the time of this writing no other authentication mechanisms are supported by Google.
