Wouldn't you remember granting a third party full access to your email inbox? That doesn't seem like a trivial decision to make.

- mikeash 10y agoFor someone who grew up before webmail existed, and where mail apps were a local thing, it's really easy to forget that granting a third-party app access to your e-mail often grants that access to a third-party company these days. It wasn't that long ago that the worst thing that would happen with a third-party mail client was that it would suck and you'd have to stop using it.
