Hi,
I'm developing a security app that will need to transmit GPS locations from handsets, without alerting the thief that emails with locations are being sent from the handset.
To this end I need silent email generation and posting, and was thinking about the GMAIL API for this.
I guess this could be either by setting up the app to use the users google credentials or to set up the app to use generic 'application' credentials. So the email would either come from them, or from an account set up just for the application...
Does this seem like a good way to perform the above, or are there better ways?
