    1128                                 This enables OAuth authentication for Twitter accounts. From June 2010 this will be mandatory.

    1132                                 With OAuth enabled, you shouldn't tell BitlBee your Twitter password. Just add your account with a bogus password and type <emphasis>account on</emphasis>. BitlBee will then give you a URL to authenticate with Twitter. If this succeeds, Twitter will return a PIN code which you can give back to BitlBee to finish the process.
    1133                         </para>
    1134 
    1135                         <para>
    1136                                 The resulting access token will be saved permanently, so you have to do this only once.
     1128                                This enables OAuth authentication for accounts that support it; right now Twitter and Google Talk (if you have 2-factor authentication enabled on your account) support it.

     1132                                With OAuth enabled, you shouldn't tell BitlBee your Twitter password. Just add your account with a bogus password and type <emphasis>account on</emphasis>. BitlBee will then give you a URL to authenticate with the service. If this succeeds, you will get a PIN code which you can give back to BitlBee to finish the process.

     1136                                The resulting access token will be saved permanently, so you have to do this only once. If for any reason you want to/have to reauthenticate, you can use <emphasis>account set</emphasis> to reset the account password to something random.
