I installed **neomutt** recently I am not able to add my gmail account to it.
How can I authenticate in **neomutt** as gmail client without writing password in
config files as plain text ? I am using **KeepassXC** and I hope i is possible authenticate this way.
I configured my account file like this:
_~/.config/neomutt/account.gmail_
set from = myemail@gmail.com
set spoolfile = ~/Mail/Gmail/INBOX
set record = ~/Mail/Gmail/Sent
set trash = ~/Mail/Gmail/Trash
set postponed = ~/Mail/Gmail/Drafts
set header_cache = ~/Mail/Gmail/Cache
set sendmail = "msmtp -a gmail"
How can I authenticate my self in **neomutt** using **keepassxc** ?

EDIT: I have found out how to send password in plaintext to stdout from keepasscx-cli [link](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/638394/keepassxc-cli-send-password-to-stdout/638397#638397) . How can i use that to authenticate to neomutt ?
