GMail SMTP with Send-Only Scope? (https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.send)

Apparently the full permission scope is required to do XOAUTH2 authentication in the SMTP protocol for GMail. See these examples https://www.example-code.com/vbnet/gmail_smtp_oauth2_access_token.asp https://www.example-code.com/vbnet/gmail_smtp_send_using_oauth2_token.asp The full permission scope is “https://mail.google.com/” The send-only scope is: “https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.send” Google claims that it’s possible to send email with the send-only scope, but we’ve found it is  simply possible.  It just doesn’t work. Don’t know why. Perhaps […]

The intent of the Verify methods is for an application to examine connectivity and login success […]
