Hi!
My site uses the identity toolkit.  It seems that the toolkit wants me.com addresses to be verified by gmail.  However, those addresses don't seem to work.  Help.

me.com is a Google app domain. Do you mean that the email exa...@gmail.com works but exa...@me.com does not? Is OpenID or OAuth2 used for your site? https://developers.google.com/identity-toolkit/v1/devconsole

Hello,  Yes, exa...@gmail.com works, but exa...@me.com does not.
I am using the API directly, not the account chooser, so I'm not sure how to answer your question.  I believe I'm using OpenID.

So the API "createAuthUrl" works, you visit that URL and try to login with exa...@me.com. After you login, does that page redirect to you callback page? What is the request to the callback like? Please include more detail error information.

"me.com" is a Google apps domain. That is why "exa...@me.com" will be redirect to Google to verify the email. We are working on a fix. Hopefully it'll be pushed to prod in several days. We'll update the thread when it's ready.

FYI. The change works on prod now. "exa...@me.com" is a legacy account now.

The me.com domain's configuration has now been changed in Google Apps.  So GITKit will no longer try to perform federated login for those users, and will instead indicate they need to be authenticated with a password.
