Gmail - no authenticators available

[Rob Pyott]

Still getting “no authenticators available” with Gmail.  I’ve adapted the muttrc per suggestions — see below.  Welcome further tips!  :)

set from = “xx at gmail.com"
set use_from = yes
set envelope_from = yes

set smtp_url = "smtps://$xxx@$gmail.com@smtp.gmail.com:465/"
set smtp_pass = “xx"
set imap_user = “xx at gmail.com"
set imap_pass = “xx"
set folder = "imaps://imap.gmail.com:993"
set spoolfile = "+INBOX"

# to get mail
bind index G imap-fetch-mail
set editor = "nano"
set charset = "utf-8"
set record = ''
set mail_check = 30

macro index,pager \cb "<pipe-message> urlscan<Enter>" "call urlscan to extract URLs out of a message"
macro attach,compose \cb "<pipe-entry> urlscan<Enter>" "call urlscan to extract URLs out of a message"

# to keep gmail connection
set imap_keepalive=180
set timeout=180

# to fix "no authenticators available" issue
set smtp_authenticators = 'gssapi:login'
