Subject: Net::Google::AuthSub objects store the password
I found this inside of the login() method when looking through the source of Net::Google::AuthSub: $self->{user} = $user; $self->{pass} = $pass; Since this value is not referenced again, I can think of no legitimate reason for keeping hold of the password and I can think of lots of reasons not to. The password should be forgotten as soon as possible. Cheers, Sterling
