OK, I think I found AN answer to my question :
    msmtp :  https://marlam.de/msmtp
 and possibly https://github.com/simonrob/email-oauth2-proxy or
    https://github.com/MadEarl/cl-oauth2 and or
    https://www.keycloak.org
, but I think 'msmtp' looks more like what I was looking for - an
augmented or slot-in replacement for 'sendmail' .
Sorry for mis-spellings in $Subject, which of course should be :
   'Re: suggestions for best 100% Elisp Oauth2 module(s) & config for 29.4
MA-GNUS + mailx + sendmail please ?
I was really asking about any known extensions to 'sendmail'  itself to
support XOAUTH2 + STARTTLS authentication
for SMTP2 - I guess there really aren't any ? I am using
: sendmail-8.18.1-1.fc40 on Fedora 40 Linux .
I will evaluate above tools and get I think msmtp working first with Emacs
mail & MA-GNUS IMAP + SMTP packages,
then look at some way I could get msmtp + other daemons like sendmail to
use a separate OAuth2 Proxy daemon(s)
for both Google & MS-365 & Atlassian OAuth2 authentication, and work on
extensions to Firefox and Chrome that
can use my OAuth2 Proxy daemon . Anyone know of similar work in progress
before I start ?
