 From the tests I did on https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/11798#note-13
 for the integration of TorBirdy in Tails, I understand that it's
 impossible to configure a GMail account in TorBirdy because TorBirdy
 blocks the JavaScript needed for OAuth to work.

 I'm not questioning the fact that TorBirdy blocks HTML and JavaScript
 while dealing with emails but would it be possible to have it handle that
 to make it possible to connect to GMail.

 I'm not very fond of GMail myself, it's not friendly to Tor, and cannot
 provide anonymity but it might still be an option in some scenarios (for
 example, if you are a journalists working on her own name but travelling
 to a place where you only want to carry Tails around).
