* Initial Setup * Initial Setup
Before installing any packages with emacs, there is some initial setup that needs to be done. The first part of this is installing isync. Isync is the actual program that is used to sync mail with remote imap servers such as the one used by gmail. Before installing any packages with emacs, there is some initial setup that needs to be done.
This can be installed with the following command: ** Exporting TLS Certificates
#+begin_src bash
sudo pacman -S isync
#+end_src
After this is installed, a config file must be created at the location ~~/.mbsyncrc~ to configure isync to connect to some gmail account. I've included this in the git repo, so after installing everything with ~stow .~, it should already be configured properly. However, some information such as the username and password might need to be updated. After installing the ~proton-mail-bridge~, you will need to export the certificates by going to Settings > Advanced settings > Export TLS certificates. From here you should place this at the path ~~/.config/protonmail/bridge/~.
The password uses GPG to decrypt some encrypted password file for added security. To create this file, run the following commands:
#+begin_src bash
vim ~/.passwords/gmail # Add your password to the file.
gpg -c ~/.passwords/gmail # Creates a gmail.gpg file.
rm ~/.passwords/gmail # Remove the plaintext password file.
#+end_src
** Disclaimer
If you are using two factor authentication, this will not work. In this case, you will need to create an /app password/. A guide on how to do this can be found [[https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833][here]]. From here, I can just replace this value with what used to be my normal password.
** Installation for MacOS
MacOS doesn't include a certificate file in the typical ~/etc/ssl/certs~ directory. Due to this, you have to create a file using the ~Keychain Access~ app.
#+begin_src bash
Open the Application Keychain Access.app
Select System Roots in the sidebar
Select all items listen here – ⌘ + a
Export the items with ⇧ + ⌘ + e to the file ~/.mail/certificates/root-certificates.pem
